Blog Earning Report
Here is the breakdown of my earnings for April 2010, with total money made online : USD$374.84.
- Google Adsense : $295.45
- Kontera : $54.36
- Asterpix : $3.80
- Affiliate sales : $20.03
- Amazon Associates : $1.20
Things didn’t turn out well last month. This blog received less traffic and earned less money last month. The earning from Kontera was very disappointing, dropped to only half the amount that I’ve earned on March 2010. So should I regret my decision of switching from Infolinks to Kontera?
Good bye, Asterpix!
On other news, I’ve quited Asterpix (finally!). Judging from the performance, Asterpix is the worst money maker for this blog. Therefore, I have no reason to keep Asterpix in this blog. Sorry, Asterpix! You’re out!
Welcome, Amazon Associates!
So one out and one coming in, I have decided to bring Amazon Associates to My Tech Quest on mid last month after reading about how Mike from CravingTech has increased his Amazon earnings by tenfold. I am using a WordPress plug-in called “Amazon Product in a Post” too, same with Mike. I do have several software product reviews on my blog. Therefore, I’ve decided to install this plugin. The plus side of this plugin as compare to the default Amazon widget, is that you can easily add one or more related Amazon products under a blog article.
So far, I am currently promoting one product. Blame on me for not having much software reviews. Will try to review other software products. For last month, I’ve managed to get one sale (my first sale), earning $1.20 in commission. I hope I can earn better with Amazon Associates this month. Let’s hope that Amazon Associates doesn’t end up like Asterpix. 🙂
