Another month flew by. Normally July is my best month ever and last year I made over 4300 euro on Adsense. Too bad my CPC and CPM is really low now. Its about 50% of what it was last year. Too bad, could have been a great month on old stats. I see CPC and CPM falling for a few months now, really concerning. Does any of you have tips on how to improve? Would love to hear from you.

Income for July 2023:

€ 2.032,89

At least I made 2000 euro last month on Adsense, which is a starter full time income when working 9-5. For the record, I am still working a 9-5 so combined this is a nice income. Not enough online yet to fully quit. Would be able to if I was earning around 4k a month on a stable basis.

Affiliate income

I am struggling with affiliate income. Made a bit over 300 euro last month. Sounds like a nice extra but I paid 10.000 euro for a website that is not really delivering, sigh…

Tips on CPC and CPM

Like I mentioned above, I hope to hear from you with tips on how to improve my CPC and CPM. it is around 50% of what it used to be. If I can improve that, income would be so much higher. Hope to hear from you!

March brought in better numbers then January and February. After the Google Algorithm update the numbers spiked as you can see in the graph. But a few days after that it faded away again.

Google Adsense income March 2019:

€2.264,98

The spike to €120 was the moment of the Google algorithm update. Too bad it didn’t hold it 🙂 Still, this is a very good month. A break down:

#1 site brought in: €1.354,46

This is roughly 60% of total revenue. Not great, not that bad either. It would be better if the number 1 revenue website would bring in less than 50% of the total revenue. This way I am less depending on that one website.

Average CPC (Cost per Click) of total revenue: €0,076

This is on the low side… I am not sure why it is this low, last year my average was above €0,10 for the whole year. Going to do some research on this and see if I can do anything about it, but I don’t think I can. If you do have any tips, please let me know in the comments.

Plans for April

I started another affiliate site in the construction niche. This is a collab with a friend and we just went live. Got over 20,000 words on the site and now working on getting links. The plan is to get revenue from other sources than just adsense. The travel affiliate site I started in January is going slow. It is online for 2 months now and Google is picking it up, but no revenue yet. I didn’t expect it to go fast though. For the rest of the month I will be working on my existing websites.
