April was a good Adsense month. I hoped for 2000 euro + and it did. Traffic is picking up. People are going for a holiday again and I can see it in the numbers. The total amount of Adsense income for April:

€ 2.243,90

That is more money than I make with my fulltime offline job (health insurance). So things are looking good. I am also trying some things out with affiliate marketing on my sites. For instance I made a page where people can claim money when their flight is delayed, I get € 28 per referral if it is approved. Had 1 so far in april, lets see how that goes.

Breakdown of my top 3 websites on Adsense:

Site 1 – € 1.411,29
Site 2 – € 375,59
Site 3 – € 199,87

Site number 3 is in transport, the rest is in travel. Yesterday this site did € 15,84 so it looks like this can become a decent earner as well. If this becomes stable at € 15,00 a day, it would bring in a nice € 450,00 a month. Going to work for that. Plan is to get some new pages, blogposts and links online in May.

Affiliate site sold

I started an affiliate site on a great domain (a .nl domain). I bought it last year for something around € 1.200,00 and made a simple site on it (free theme, wordpress). I did some linkbuilding, got some traffic and SE rankings, made 3 affiliate sales and listed it for sale. This was 4 months later. Put a BIN (Buy it now) up for € 4.800,00 and it was sold within 2 days for the BIN price. Good extra money but maybe I could have gotten more out of it. Ahh well, good sale nevertheless.
