As I'm lazy as always updating here I think I'd give an update after a year on where we're at: At a glance Analytics past months Earnings (November) Affiliate - $3 692 AdSense - $1064 Total: $4 746 Other earnings I don't count are selling guest posts on my website which are +$1500...

Thought I'd update it a bit more since I've gotten some PMs. Traffic the past 6 months As you can see there's been some spikes in March which is due to a national event that we're ranking #1 for on most terms. Traffic is now averaging around 50-60k a month compared to 40k from when I last...

Still working on the website. I've ran the case study on multiple websites and had more feedback at other places hence why I haven't updated this. Currently up to around 60k monthly visitors and June the revenue reached $3 700 compared to around $3 400 in May. Average increase in revenue has...

Got the email from Adrecord as well. Always been bad to be honest. ;-) Just get used to losing 50% of the money you earn here. You can open up a company else where to avoid some of the corp tax but can't do much about the Swedish income tax unless you can prove to Skatteverket that you're not...

Just as a side-note: I've been working on "re-releasing" some of my previous content which didn't perform in the rankings. By just changing the permalink, title, header and changing some in the content I've seen some great improvements. Most likely going to go through around 30 articles to...

Oh boy! Christmas has passed and so has January and lots of things has happened! The past months I've been working heavily on revising old content and writing news articles since I'm aiming to get included into Google News shortly. Currently at 100,000 words and 90 articles. Google Analytics...

Alright! I've been a bit lazy with the updates but alas! November Update November brought snow to Sweden and I've been bunkring myself up in my apartment with Christmas lights amass. On-top of this one of the affiliates (the one that has earned me the most money) changed their revenue model...

Hey there. I personally don't use Amazon as my affiliate network since they're not (yet) active in Sweden. Although chances are that I might launch something soon to capitalize on their entry to the Sweden market. My best guess would be that the on-page is exactly the same as any other...

Three posts up! I manage the ads via the Ad Review Center to make sure there's no conflicting ads. I use ads quite sparingly as well so it's only showing up twice per page. But thanks for the suggestion!

Hey there! October Update It's been a pretty calm month in terms of content and work. Real-life things has gotten in the way (work etcetera) but not going to let that affect the website too much. I've also seen that we're getting more and more natural backlinks each month: it would seem we're...

In one sense, yes. In another sense, no. It's true that affiliate has delivered more for me but from what I've seen it's still doable to grow the AdSense revenue quite a bit. It's a matter of leveraging traffic to the website and not so much on buyer intent. During the spike the last month I...

Hey there! 1. 336x280 in the article and using response ads for top/bottom. That's what I'm using and it seems to work. You can swap out a responsive one at the top for a linkunit instead. 2. AMP has been great for me. Ads are easy to implement (I do it through my functions.php file) and I use...

Are you using AdSense? The best banner placement for be has been in-content ones, 336x280 and then response ones at the beginning and the end of the article. If you're running AMP make sure to implement ads as well else you will lose out a lot of your potential earnings.

Thanks for your comment! Still not at 10,000 SEK sadly but getting close. ;) The website should have the potential to earn $10,000 / monthly so it's just a long grind until then. Right now the focus will be like always: revise the previous content to make it better and add new articles...
