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?

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.

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…

But that’s an old story for Maybank. Maybank allows us to withdraw that account money online via M2U Online Stocks now (I just notice it today, did not use Maybank Online Stock Trading for long time).

Yes, managed to get out RM201.17 that I put in 3 years ago. I got another question… When will Public Bank implement this kind of feature?

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)

Nuffnang – US$ 93.86 (RM 315.45)

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.

Internet income report for January 2010

Google AdSense – US$ 224.28 (RM 760.19)
Innity – US$ 107.35 (RM 363.87)

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?

Internet income report for December 2009

Innity – US$ 243.79 (RM 825.73)

Infolinks – US$ 67.10 (RM 227.26)

Grand Total: US$ 732.61 (RM 2481.37)

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.

JayceOoi.com traffic sources on November 2009

JayceOoi.com is the first blog (I called it website for last 2 years as I did not want to admit that it is a blog) that I have. And then PrettyGirl2u.com and spBlogger.com. All of them have traffic from search engines for free. I am not going to discuss on every single step here, just high level as most of us know to do so already.

Things that I do to get traffic to my website for free…

1. Make my website a search engine optimized (SEO) website.
2. Comment at others’ blog.
3. Active at famous forums.
4. Don’t stop learning new stuff

Search engines love SEO websites. You will get lot of traffic there. All you need to do ~ get lot of incoming links as you can. Personally, I don’t blog purposely for search engine. There are some who do so in order to make money online. And it is proven that it work. I would like to have more direct traffic. Why? This mean that your blog is informative and people are willing to visit again. And indirectly, it will bring more incoming links too. Finally, I always keep this in mind.

Write good content, do proper marketing == money money traffic traffic come.

Nuffnang – US$ 73.36 (RM 246.20)
Infolinks – US$ 49.50 (RM 166.12)

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!!!

I am using Public Bank Online Share Trading with Share Margin Financing account. The minimum amount to borrow is RM50k (last time is RM100k) and with BLR – 1.8% (around 3.8% based on current BLR) per annum interest rate. Public Bank will borrow you 1.5X money based on what you have in that account ~ cash or stock value. For example, if you have RM100k cash there, you can borrow up to RM150k margin to invest. So total up as RM250k. Same apply to stock value. However, the stock value is determined by bank and not the market value. Some of the stocks do not have such value and bank does not want to take risk to lend you too much money. And if you are not able to pay back the loan, bank can force sell your stock.

Choosing the correct stock to invest is important. You don’t want to invest on a stock have only 2% dividends and without any capital gain at all. Then you need to pay 3.8% to bank. End up you are losing money at 1.8%. So make sure you pick the high dividend yield stock to invest.

Timing is another factor. With economy getting better and in the recovery road, having more money to invest is a nice move. You can easily earn more than 100% during this time. Why? Most of the stocks are undervalue and at a very attractive price. Some stocks can even go up to 300%. Therefore, you can earn a lot more with this extra money.

Borrow money == Make more money

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.

Above was the letter that I got from PTPTN. Asking us to pay back the overdue loan payment. Some of my friends also getting this letter from PTPTN. Hmm… Don’t know how to pay back? No worry, just follow the guide ~ How to pay back PTPTN loan online? Be sure to pay it.

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

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?

Public Bank share trading account is nominate account. There is 30% discount on brokerage rate (minimum brokerage of RM12.00) when we trade online. For contract value RM100K and below, the brokerage rate would be 0.42%. While for contract value above RM100K – the brokerage rate would be 0.21%. The brokerage rate for intraday transaction will remain the same at 0.15%. Good for short-term traders.

The bad sides… I cannot buy Initial Public Offering (IPO) with this account. There is RM5.50 service charge when receive dividend payment. You will get the payment in your PB Sharelink account directly. (No need bank in the cheque yourself)

I have Maybank Online Stock account and OSK share account (OSK188) too. How about you? Do you invest in stock market?

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?

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…

How to payback PTPTN loan using online method? No worry. Just follow the steps given at PTPTN E-FES website. It is as easy as ABC. But you need to have Internet banking account first. Then, you don’t need to go to bank to pay PTPTN loan repayment already.

Of course… The better is that we don’t need to pay it back at all.

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…

Google AdSense broke its all time high again ~ the highest earning that I got for Google AdSense on January 2009. Looking forward to break US$ 200 record.

Infolinks had a very good first week result ~ US$ 0.73 daily average. Earning started to slowdown after the first week then. And I got US$ 0.49 daily average in the end. Infolinks earning almost double when compare to Kontera (US$ 0.26 daily average). This is a better in-text advertising that I had. Any in-text advertising company better than Infolinks?

I started to post my Internet income on April last year. I got US$ 90.4 (RM 280.24) only that time. And I got US$ 342.36 (RM 1207.99) after 1 year. That’s 278.71% increment in my Internet income. I love it. Can you get this kind of increment when you are employed? Therefore, stop looking around for higher pay salary job. And start having your own website to generate income online!

Woo… The earning still better than previous month even without Nuffnang earning. Google AdSense and ADSDAQ helped to push the earning by performing better. The new comer Infolinks also helped some even started on 17 March. For those still using Kontera, you can try out Infolinks. It does better than Kontera.

By the way, I dumped Text Link Ads (inLinks). Why? I can’t seem to get it work on my blog. After emailing Text Link Ads support several times, they still can’t solve the issue. I kept getting warning letter stated that the widget is not working on my site. Oh well, what should I do? Removed it is the best way. Google will be happy to see that anyway…

Grand Total: US$ 268.53 (RM 959.71)

RM 1000 target… When can I maintain the earning above RM 1000 per month? Oh, before I forget. Google does not like Text Link Ads (inLinks). If you want your Google PageRank, don’t use Text Link Ads (inLinks). Only use it on the websites that you don’t care about Google PageRank.
