Your Biggest Earner

[MafiaMaster]

Each month on my blog, I write about how much money I have made and all of that. And I try to determine which of my many different methods of earning has made me the most money. For me, my biggest earner has to be the occasional content writing gig that I may do for some investment money. I've just found that this money is easiest to come by. I write a few articles and bam, I have just made some money. Coming in second I think is Adsense, but even that is slow this month. What about for you? If you had to pick one thing to be your top earner each month, which would it be?

For me If I analyse, highest money earner has been selling links on my sites and after that comes second adsense. But since the site giving me money for links has been sold, this month Adsense will take over.

[MafiaMaster]

Ah...See, I only have one link on my blog that has sold, so it doesn't really provide me any real money. Granted, I sell blog post sponsorships and that does bring in some small amounts of money, but overall, if I sit down and write a few articles, I bring in a lot more money than I would do anything else. I suppose it just takes time to really build my sites up to finally start earning money from adsense.

I don't put the analysis on my blog anymore. I don't count my incoming and outgoing money either.

I should do that and am planning to record everything next month. That way I know exactly what is coming in and what is going out. I think I will be shaking when I see the numbers.. hehe

My best earner is usually content writing or paid posts for my blogs. Its pretty easy as MM said. . . . but these day the traffic on the net as such is pretty slow and low, anyone else noticed it?

My bloody adsense earnings are down because of this month. Perhaps it's just THIS month, but last month I did well in my book, but this month, man, I am frustrated. Either way, if it weren't for the fact that people love my content writing, I would be up shits creak, pardon my use of vulgar. I have a hard time getting people to click on my ads and I don't know so much if it is the fact that my placement sucks or if, perhaps, a lot of people are becoming immune to the fact that they are ads.

my adsense earnings are also less than last month.. I don't know, maybe because 50 % of people are already having vacation.. oh oh.. this is not promising.. hehe

[MafiaMaster]

It probably is because a lot of people are on vacation. They're enjoying the fact school is out, etc, etc. I think once July rolls around, it should get a little bit better for us web earners. Then again, I could be wrong and summer could just be a downright horrible money to do business. Who knows, though? I can say this, though...This is the time to really work on developing sites so that when school does start again and work is back into full swing, your sites are ready for people to look at.

True.. get ready for Q4. The time the most internet earnings are generated!

[MafiaMaster]

Why is that? Why is quarter four the highest internet earnings? Is it because Christmas and all of those holidays are getting closer? I mean...Quarter four consists of October, November, and December. So, perhaps it has something to do with the fact that since it is getting closer to the holiday season, advertisers are willing to spend more money with the hopes of getting better gifts for their loved ones/children/parents, whatever. Could that be the reason?
