So Money Blogger has been round for a whole week now, so I thought I’d share a few stats with you.
Total page views: 400
Feed subscribers: 11
Pages indexed by Google: 19
Total revenue: $27.77
That’s a fairly stonking $69 CPM!
Now, with that level of traffic, those figures are still fairly meaningless, so one of the things I’ll be trying to do next week is build up the traffic. That should help increase subscriber numbers (i.e. regular readers) as well as attracting the direct advertisers that are going to be essential to make real money.
Subscribe to Money Blogger and keep track of how I’m doing!

2Where has your revenue come from? AdSense? Or other source(s)? And how did you manage to have 19 pages indexed in only one week? Have you used any special techniques to achieve this?
I don’t know if this piece of info will be of any use to you, but I’ve found your site via AdWords, while I was browsing Squidoo. Funny thing is that your ad was displayed on a page that had nothing to do with blogging.

3Karen: The revenue so far has come from an affiliate sign-up (the 125×125 squares on the right) and AdSense.
As for getting pages indexed by Google quickly – well I think the trick is just to get as many inbound links to your site quickly. I’m lucky that I run several other sites, but you can always email your friends and swap links if you’re just starting out.
The other useful trick is to do exactly what you’re doing here – comment on other people’s blogs (leaving your URL in the comment).

4Well I think I’m going to run a similar experiment, though mine will be from the very bottom basics. I’m very computor illiterate but a good writer with a few good ideas. I’m going to try to learn what I have to do just starting out. There is a lot of fluff out there with no real answers to the very basic questions. Is this part of the hook? If it is going to take three months of blooging I’m not going to write the best stuff yet, I’ll wait till I can get the revenue flowing.
