I know I do one of these every month (or someone does), but I think they're good to help cheer each other on :)
Anyway - August?
Best. Month. Ever.
I was hoping to clear $300 for the month; I managed to bring in almost $430 :)
August's Amazon income was more than May/June/July combined.
And thanks to some changes in ad layouts, Adsense was more than double what July provided (and that was my best month ever!).
How about you?
best month ever too. Yea!
Yeah, August has been going great :)
A good 20% more off adsense in august than in July. September should put August to shame though.
Amazon revenue up as well, doubled from July, thanks to my TV site -- could be up even more except quite a few TVs haven't shipped yet.
Can't really tell Tribal Fusion as their reporting is down. Other adnetworks seemed to mirror Adsense's improvement.
Ecommerce was up as well.
Not my best month ever by a longshot though.
My August was much better than last year at this time. AdSense eCPM was up, FastClick was ok. Schools in and September should be great.
Well, my first month in the website industry. I made $0.78 from Adsense! I guess you have to start somewhere :).
$13 more than last month, bringing me up to $31 bucks. It's not much, but it's 90% cheatfire.com which doesn't have fantastic CTR or CPC.
Good work! Somewhere around $380 for me. Adsense 10% down on last month - a little worrying that everyone else has done well on it!Quote:

Yeah good. Site membership sales were up. :)
Adsense eCPM continues to increase. There is no doubt that more people want to advertise on google and therefore it is becoming more competitive. It seems that many businesses equate 'internet marketing' with having an ad on google, so this is good for adsense revenue.
Of course, last month I only made 6 cents with Adsense but this month I made 50 cents. One of my sites is only two months old while the other is only a month. I am starting to see more clicks on my affiliates but haven't made any sales yet. Amazon has surprised me in that I have quite a few clicks but no sales. It is all about time and patience. My manager site earns better money with Adsense than my Social Studies site and is well ranked in MSN which helps. 100% of search engiine traffic comes from Yahoo and MSN and doing well.
I only hope to do as well as all of you as I continue to learn from all of you and continuously work to improve the content and look of my sites.
I really need to begin learning stuff like PHP and HTML so I can do more as well as SQL.
Great! The first month I have ever made anything.
Adsense was about $51 for the month and Amazon was about $85 for the last two weeks. I've added 44 for Store sections since then so I'm hoping that the next few months will be nice.
Just got this place up today: http://www.whizshopper.com
Still need some work on the Portal though.
Its kinds fun doing this stuff. :D
In terms of traffic, my Strange Facts site got 355 more uniques this month than last month. Strangely though, my adsense revenue is half what it was last month. My ctr has not changed, if it has, it has slightly gone up. The rates have just dropped for some reason with me. I hope to see a big increase next month with school in. Its already been noticible in the last week.
All my earnings took a hit in August. Expect for Amazon, which continued to grow. I think the blame lies with decreased traffic due to vacations, and my server being somewhat overloaded (which I recently partially remedied, after which earnings increased back to normal). Looking forward to Sept.
