Internet income report for July 2010

Google AdSense – US$ 414.39 (RM 1283.78)

ADSDAQ – US$ 131.79 (RM 408.28)
Innity – US$ 93.34 (RM 289.19)
Nuffnang – US$ 19.71 (RM 61.07)

Grand Total: US$ 825.46 (RM 2557.30)

Besides lesser advertisers, USD is getting even lower this month with 1 USD == 3.0980 RM. It is heading to RM 3.00 which mean US earning is getting lesser too.

By the way, blogs’ traffic is almost the same for the past 3 months. Around 150K visits and 300K pageviews for JayceOoi.com. Click here to see details at DoubleClick Ad Planner. Working hard to increase it but still the same. I think I need to post more popular keywords article to attract more traffic.

Grand Total: US$ 1326.81 (RM 4186.75)

Hmm… USD is getting lower this month with 1 USD == 3.1555 RM. Earning from US advertising is poorer. But on the bright side, I can purchase cheaper stuff from US directly. It’s time to get some photography / video gears from US.

ADSDAQ performed great and hit historical high again. Infolinks also did a very good job by almost doubling the earning from previous month. However, Innity was falling apart with only RM0.59 earning…

Thanks God. And many thanks to the advertising companies that support me all the while. YES!!! I broke US$ 1,500 and RM 5,000 level (it will take sometimes to hit this record again since that Celcom advertorial only come once in 2 years). Writing more quality posts, increasing US traffic helped a lot to improve this Internet income earning. And choosing the correct advertising company is important too. You don’t want waste your layout space to show those under-performing ads, right?

Check out hd2apps traffic stats here ~ more than 13k unique visitors per day now. This site only 4 months old. With this kind of traffic, you should be able to earn USD1000 per month (or even more). Can you resist not to publish warez?

Hmm… Is there a loophole in Google AdSense Programme Policies?

Updated 23 June 2010 ~ both of the sites don’t publish Google AdSense ads anymore. So Warez + Google AdSense are not allowed!

Updated 30 July 2010 ~ forum.mobilism.org is back with Google AdSense ads. So Warez + Google AdSense are allowed!

Finally, I did not have problem to withdraw Google AdSense payment by using Western Union service at Sungai Petani Public Bank. Last few months, the staff refused to process my withdrawal due to miss match on first and last name. Well, the lovely staff that attended me today managed to solve that simple problem. Let say, My IC name is Koay Ah Ka. So my first name is Ah Ka and last name is Koay. So put in the same stuff in the Western Union withdrawal form should do the trick, right? Nope. In the system, my first name is Koay Ah and last name is Ka. And the sender name ~ Google Inc is at the last name column. Anyway, by filling in the exact way as the system shown, I got my money in the end.

Do you face this issue when you withdraw Google AdSense using Western Union?

I actually getting lesser Google AdSense payment last month due to weak USD @ 1 USD = RM 3.147. Luckily, USD rebound to around RM 3.3080 level today. That’s around 5% increase for all the US earning.

Innity earning is falling behind. I get nothing from Innity for the last 30 days due to new Innity rule ~ All campaign dates are subject to change. Our media operations team will continuously optimize campaigns, in order to ensure the best results for the advertisers. Therefore some campaigns might become unavailable to your account.

Internet income report for April 2010

What the heck? Why there is xxx.xx in the earning? I received comments that this earning report encourages some of you. And I need encourage from you all too now. It is very simple to show your support. Just like my Facebook spBlogger.com Page beside. I will reveal the earning when I get more than 50 fans. Come on, show some supports. Ask your friends to support me too.

Updated ~ Received 10 fans support after 1 month. Many thanks to them. I guess that I can stop publishing income report since not much people would like to see it. Anyway, I reveal the earning…

Infolinks in-text link Ads

Which side of paragraph do you prefer? Left or right? I prefer don’t have any in-text link ads at all. However, it does bring revenue to me (around USD100 per month and US traffic helps a lot here ~ higher pay). Some of the visitors won’t click on Google AdSense ads but might click on in-text link ads. Therefore, I tried to show 1 ad only. However, the earning is not that promising. So I tried 2 ads and got it. 2 Infolinks ads have same amount of clicks as 3 Infolinks ads. Finally, I stay with 2. Why put more in-text link ads when 2 ads are enough?

By the way, do check out my Integration Guide for Infolinks.

Traffic is getting better. And most of them are coming from US. Therefore, US advertising companies’ earning increased. And well done to Innity which perform well and spot the 2nd place. Err… Google AdSense and Infolinks hit the highest earning but USD to RM is only 1 to 3.2330. Therefore, total earning in Ringgit Malaysia is not that high. But it is all times high also.

I started posting my Internet income report since May 2008. This report is the 24th among them. And this report is not to show off how much that I earn but to encourage people that you can make money online too. And the advertising companies that can bring you more income. However, some people sabotage my Google AdSense by generating lot of fraud clicks. This let me down…

Let me know. Should I continue to post Internet income report? Does this post help you to keep blogging as encouragement?

Internet income report for February 2010

Google AdSense – US$ 220.05 (RM 739.52)
Innity – US$ 143.36 (RM 481.81)
Nuffnang – US$ 93.86 (RM 315.45)
ADSDAQ – US$ 74.52 (RM 250.43)
Infolinks – US$ 37.27 (RM 125.25)

I told myself long time ago. Write 1 article at least each day. I manage to do so on Pretty Girl 2u only. Why? No brain is needed on PrettyGirl2u articles. I just need to find, edit the girls’ photos and schedule to post them. So I get lot of money from it? Nope, easy tasks == low return.

Writing quality, current trend, popular keywords articles do help to bring more traffic. For example, Dell UltraSharp U2410 Review post. I knew that I am going to get some traffic based on this review. So I bought this monitor on September 2009. By the way, it is not cheap ~ RM1799. 200+ page views in the first 2 weeks. Around 150 page views after that and getting 100 page views nowadays. Finally, total 21,986 page views as at now.

It took me several days to write this article. I need to run lot of testings. But it is worth the effort based on the return. However, you will get the same traffic or even more sometime with less effort if your keywords are matched to the current searching trend. Never stop get updated with latest info and knowledge. You will get more in return when you are in the front end of the technology.

Okay, not every visitor will come to your website directly. For example, a visitor translated your website using Google Translate. Google AdSense does not detect your website address but Google Translate address. Therefore, the earning is not counted there. Besides Google AdSense, Nuffnang also use that method to display its ads. But we can’t do anything here.

Funny Chinese translation

I already set Google AdSense back to Allow any site to display ads for my account. Let’s see the earning will be up or not…

Internet income report for January 2010

Google AdSense – US$ 224.28 (RM 760.19)
Innity – US$ 107.35 (RM 363.87)
Nuffnang – US$ 80.45 (RM 272.69)
Infolinks – US$ 70.09 (RM 237.57)
ADSDAQ – US$ 69.71 (RM 236.28)

Grand Total: US$ 551.88 (RM 1870.60)

Getting RM 2,000 per month is hard. Getting RM 3,000 is even harder. How much visitors per day should I need in order to get RM 4,000 per month? I checked Google Analytics traffic and the earning for the pass few months.

RM 500 == 500 visitors
RM 800 == 1,500 visitors
RM 1,200 == 2,300 visitors
RM 1,900 == 3,300 visitors
RM 4,000 == ?? visitors

So RM 4,000 only needs around 7,000 visitors, right? Not exactly but it is near I think. The earning does not come in this way. Google AdSense and Infolinks depend on keyword rate, CTR, articles and visitors behavior while Innity, Nuffnang and ADSDAQ depend on ad inventories. To be safe, my target…

RM 5000 == 10,000 visitors.

Here come another question… How long will I need in order to get 10,000 visitors per day?

Never be afraid to try something new on your blog layout. We learn from mistakes and improve there.

I changed blog layout last month. Removed Google AdSense leaderboard ad. The earning is about the same. But Infolinks earning is getting better. Will continue to improve the layout and earning.

How to avoid Google AdSense click fraud? I also don’t know. But I took below steps to avoid it.

• Remove the ad code.
• Set my own domains on Allowed Sites only.

Why remove the ad code? That guy clicked on Large Rectangle – top channel ad on JayceOoi.com root level. Based on Google Analytics, that ad only brings less than USD 3 in 1 month. Removed it is a good decision. No use to put it there as it wastes space.

Set own domains on Allowed Sites also will help to reduce your Google AdSense code being used by others to do evil thing ~ click fraud sabotage. All the other domains that using your ad code will be ignore by Google. Therefore, all the worry will be gone.

Grand Total: US$ 606.17 (RM 2034.32)

So far, Google AdSense, ADSDAQ, Nuffnang and Infolinks’ payments are on time. They don’t ever delay any payment before. Will Innity become like Advertlets? Oh no… I have more than RM1000 in Innity. Help!!!

Internet income report for October 2009

Google AdSense – US$ 224.47 (RM 764.32)

Infolinks – US$ 45.28 (RM 154.17)

Grand Total: US$ 705.01 (RM 2400.61)

Innity Performance Network is a bright star (when I get the payment. It delayed September payment. Else I should get it by now. Hopefully, it won’t happen on October payment as well). No payment (or delay payment) makes me thinking of Advertlets. Advertlets is still not paying bloggers nowadays. And getting payment from Advertlets is a tough task. You need to write blog post to ask for your payment like I did. Else you will end up getting nothing.

Remember… More traffic will bring more revenue.

Focus on getting more traffic not revenue. This is what I always say lately. Yup, it is true. More traffic will bring more revenue.

10th ADSDAQ payment

I would like to certify ADSDAQ as Best CPM make money online tool with this 10th payment. Be sure to sign up ADSDAQ and start make money.

9th ADSDAQ payment

ADSDAQ will be ranked as No 2 in spBlogger.com just after the champion ~ Google AdSense. Keep performing, ADSDAQ.

I tried Innity Performance Network last month. Was not happy with the 2 weeks earning and support response. So I took the code down. After that, I received some ad campaign emails from Innity Media. Therefore, I put back the code back on 31 August. By the time I wrote, I discovered that the Innity backup ad function is not working. Hmm… Are you using Innity Performance Network? Do you face the same issue as I do?

Only the strong will survive. Every advertising company earning is increasing. But Nuffnang earning does not match to increasing traffic. I am thinking of dumping Nuffnang from the list. And will use existing Nuffnang ad placements (top header, before comment and sidebar) for direct advertiser. These locations are good and should bring more income to me if I sell them directly. What do you think?

8th ADSDAQ payment

ADSDAQ from contextWeb is still the best performing CPM ads for me. Do you have it on your website? If no, hurry head to ADSDAQ website to sign up. No worry, it works fine with Google AdSense.

What is the AskPrice that you set?
There are several sizes ads that you can select from. The AskPrice that I put are $1.50, $3.00 and $5.00. Each of them have different fill rate. Just play around the AskPrice to get the best earning for your site.

What is the fill rate that you got?
Oh, I have around 5% fill rate only. Putting high AskPrice will lower the fill rate.

Any other questions you want to ask about ADSDAQ?

Well… Nuffnang was the only one that contributed lesser income due to less advertisement assigned to 3 of my blogs. 5xmom managed to get RM 3000 per month from Nuffnang. Why I cannot? Hmm…

More and more bloggers nowadays. Some of my friends also involve in blogging actively lately. Hopefully, all of us will earn more online income. I like to earn online income as passive income because I still can earn money even without doing anything. Some bloggers manage to maintain its earning even without writing anything for months. That’s cool…
