Blog Income Report :: April 2007

Income produced on Genius Types jumped by over 50% in April! Total earnings rose to $152.53.

The compound monthly growth rate of income earned on GeniusTypes.com over the last three months is sitting at 34%. If it continues to grow at that rate, Genius Types will earn over $3800 in April of 2008.

Six Months to $100

Last month’s prediction of six months to $100 in Adsense just barely came true. Total Adsense income for April was $100.34. You can bet I was glued to my Adsense stats in the final hours of April. I got that last click to put me over $100 in the nick of time.

Income Breakdown

    $100.34 from Google AdSense
    $45.17 from Text-Link Ads
    $6.72 from Amazon Affiliate Commissions
    $.30 from Revver.com

April Income

Google AdSense

It was a great feeling to get over the $100 hump with Google. Here is a breakdown of how AdSense has treated me over the last six months.

April AdSense Income

Text-Link Ads

April was an exciting month for Text-Link Ad Sales! A total of three slots were sold for a total of $45.17.

Amazon Affiliate Program

I earned $6.72 in April from Amazon.com book sale commissions. It was nice to see Amazon actually do something this month. Hopefully, I’ll see more out of it in the future.

Revver

For the second month in a row, I earned $.30 from Revver.com. This brings my all-time total up to $15. This month, I should start to see more now that I’m producing more video.

Stay tuned for the full passive income report next week!

    Have you taken a look at a new company we’re getting off the ground, Bravisa.com (http://www.bravisa.com)? We allow you to get passive retail-level revenues from your blog. Small effort. No cost. No risk.

    Linc, Bravisa looks interesting. If anyone has any experience with it, I’d like to hear from them so I can report on it.

    Even though my own blog is in an early and unoriginal phase. I wanted to say that it was your blog that inspired me to trek down the blogging path.
    Thanks Brian love your work!

    Excellent…great work Brian.

    It is very exciting to see the Text-Link-Ads taking off.

    Right now I’m earning about $60/month from Adsense, about $9/month from TLA (one slot sold), about $25/month from independent sales, and about $2/month from Bidvertiser.

    I guess that puts me at about $94/mohth total.

    The cool thing about the independent sales ads is that I run them in 3 month contracts at $25/link. I’m focusing on getting more of these going because there is no middle man, so I get all the income. Currently I have one advertiser, and I have 2 more in the works. If I could land them (and I should close them soon), I would be up to $144/month just like that! Which would be sweet. My Alexa rank, Google PR, & Technorati scores continue to climb as well, so I’m hoping my TLA ads will increase.

    Anyway…let’s keep going. Before you know it we’ll be pulling in $1,000/month! SWEET!

    Good to see you’re incoming is growing. But there is one thing: The Google AdSense policies does not allow to post or tell anybody your Adsense-Earnings…

    According to the Google AdSense Terms & Conditions (Paragraph 7), it is okay to disclose total payouts from Google.

    It isn’t okay to disclose click-through rates or any technical details of the program.
