So…my riches were short lived. Today has been a decent day, but it does not compare to yesterday’s take. It is not that I presumed that I would just keep up $13 days and grow from there already…but it is only natural to get your hopes up after a day like that.

This proves 2 things to me:

  • A project like this takes great diligence and attention. Sites like mine can be fickle ones…and many forces can cause your traffic to die up (and the revs go with them)
  • I NEED TO DIVERSIFY

The second bullet is one that I absolutely have to devote some focus to. I’ve mentioned the things that I would be doing online to reach my $40 in 40 days goal. I need to find/make the time to get a few of my other ventures to be earning $$.

The other one that I might focus just a bit more about is to monetize my blog. Not much history or traffic as of yet…but most readers seem to have gotten something out of it.

Ok…you have waited patiently through my rambles…so here is the revenue for today:

Free Image Hosting

Another strong day overall for Adbrite…but there are a lot of their ads served.  One issue I have is that I don’t have good stats for my proxified pages (as in user traffic).  Any chance you know of somewhere I can get FREE robust stats.  I am using Statcounter right now, and it is good for catching UVs, but I am also very keen to know those number of pages loaded while on proxies.

Any reader have good ideas to share??

Thanks!
