October 2008 Blog Revenue Report
- 31 Comments
- By Zac Johnson on November 3rd, 2008
It was almost one year ago that I first starting producing revenue from this blog. Which means there is only one blog revenue report after this one, making for a full 12 months in the blog revenue case study. Last month was the second highest earning month for the blog, with $6,180.98 in revenue and $5,992.36 in profit. With the holiday season upon us, I wouldn’t be surprised to see overall affiliate earnings increase, as this is the time to start making big money.As mentioned, the total profit from the blog in September was $5,992.36, and the revenue report for October is below.
OCTOBER 2008 BLOG REVENUE REPORT:
- Affiliate Sales/Referrals: $1,624.95
- Private Ad Sales: $2,470.00
- Reviews: $500.00
Total Revenue: $4,594.95
- No Costs
Total Costs: $0.00
Total Blog Income for October 2008: $4,594.95
The two main revenue sources for the blog, but decreased in amount from the previous month, but this was slightly expected as an advertiser’s time sensitive campaign came to a close. The drop in affiliate referral earnings seemed to be across the board. One network told me that one of my main referrals was taking time to focus on school, rather than affiliate marketing… which has greatly reduced their affiliate earnings. As the last two months of the year usually bring in the most activity, I would not be surprised to see this numbers increase.
As mentioned, there is only one more blog revenue report after this one… then my free ebook will be released on the full case study, and how to make money with a blog. This ebook will be exclusively available to newsletter subscribers first, so please make sure you are subscribed by using the form below.

ReplySo does that mean you’ll stop posting earning reports?
ReplyHey, I just had a quick question when you are making all this money (not that I am yet) but when do you count the income when you get the check or deposit to your account or when it shows up on a particular account for that month? Just curious. Thanks for the tips.
ReplyHey Zac what do you mean by “affiliate sales/referrals” ?
ReplyWow that is huge amount of money
ReplyGreat job! I know you will continue to increase your earnings! .
Reply[...] Zacjohnson.com musste im Oktober ebenfalls einen Rückgang der Einnahmen verbuchen. Aber auch hier liegt dies nur daran, dass der Vormonat ganz besonders gut war. Ansonsten ist der Wert noch immer ein sehr guter. [...]
