Blogtomic - Learn the secrets to Blogging for cash.

One month has finally gone by sense I launched Blogtomic. I have been working hard on the site, in the middle of the month I did a redesign and sense then I have added some new features and been keeping up with gathering ideas to write about and making some good friends and contacts along the way. One month seems like forever when you are working on building a reader base and a good source of traffic. I have hit a few bumps here an there in the first month and hope to weed out a few things. Overall it has been a good month. My Alexa and Traffic are where I would have liked them to have been, Google I can not say the same for as for some reason Google keeps ignoring to index this name for some reason. It was previously owned and I am wondering if that may have something to do with it, sense that is one of the only reasons I can think of not being indexed yet.

Lets take a look at this months stats:
Alexa: 395,793
Technorati: 175,905
Number of visits: 6,157
Number of hits: 124,936
Best Day Ever: 749 — Friday, Jan. 25
Inbound Links: 429
RSS Subscribers: 29
Email Subscribers: 9
Number of post: 31

I think the stats for the site are doing really good with around 200-500 visitors per day with 3,331 unique visitors and 6,157 total visitors and 39,079 page views. This is way more than I had expected and I think for the first month the numbers are not to bad.

Blogtomic Earnings for Jan. 2008:
The numbers are not as impressive as I would like, but it’s a start and better than nothing at all. My goal is to reach at-least $650 a month and seems like a big goal, but this will at-least cover my monthly rent, and have nice things for my daughter, I would much rather this than buying fancy cars and big houses all that can come later in life. I’m hoping Feb. will be a little better than this month. I feel it was a little shorter than my goal was. So lets take a look at those numbers stall we.

Total Blog Income for January 2008: $33.52

In Febuary I hope these amounts increase some. Starting is always the hard part. I have a few good post planed and we shall see how the second month does. So stay tuned.

Lower Ad Sales & Ad Special
I lowered the advertising price for the site in hopes that there might be an increase in sales. I’m never sure on how to price these things and I decided to take a look a some other equal blogs and get and idea of prices. Feel free to contact me if you would like a spot.

This will be a first come first serve bases. All you have to do is send me a email with the title Valentine AD Special.

Help me buy a plane ticket, not beer.
If you have been reading the site you may have noticed the “Help me buy a plane ticket.” at the bottom of my post. I modified the “Buy me beer” Wordpress Plugin so that anyone willing to help me and my daughter out with buying our $700 ticket to fly home to SC can donate. Tickets are not cheap and I sometimes wonder why it’s full price for a 3 year old to fly, just another way for “the company” to rip us off. We are hoping to go down in Feb. or Mar. and it would be great to get the money so that my daughter could see her other grandparents. Feel free to donate as much or as little as you prefer. I would rather someone “Help me buy a plane ticket” than “buy me a beer” at-least it the money will be a better reason than a beer I will drink in 5 mins.
