August 2009 Post Highlights

Well, there were a few ups and downs going on in my life and somehow it made me lazy & gave me a “boredom syndrome” at the same time. I got bored of tweeting and I got bored of writing lengthy good posts. As you can see, there weren’t many good posts happening and almost no marketing were done for this blog either. I haven’t even visited some of your blogs and left comemnts. I felt disconnected with you all. Well, the past is the past, it’s time to get up this month! I’ve subscribed back to some of your feeds and I’m planning to start commenting and having good relationships with you all again :)

I’ve also tried a few new programs to get more money out of this blog. I’m still struggling but thankfully I have a full time job anyway, so I won’t get frustrated or anything if I can’t make much out of this blog.

I’m still struggling whether I should write a few blogging tips like I used to be or just focusing on technology on this blog of mine…

I look forward to your traffic and income statistics at the beginning of the month. Mostly because we both have tech blogs, started around the same time, and have very similar traffic stats, although you have 3x more feed readers than me. We even make similar income. Your blog provides a nice comparison for me to see how I am progressing.

As for blogging tips or technology, what do you enjoy writing about the most? I like your technology posts because it gives me ideas for future purchases (depending if the wife lets me), but I have also taken advantage of your blog posts as well.

You should give Infolinks a try. Maybe it will work well for your blog. All the best to you for the month of September.

Nice to see your traffic still going up (even with Social Media on the down) in regards to earnings I have seen you are marketing reviews alot more; you just need to target them now for maximum SE traffic and interlinking with forums that may be intersted and it should rise ;)

Good luck for next month hope to see you break that $150 barrier!

The quality of your posts is what impresses me the most. Though I don’t leave many comments, I follow your blog very closely (I must be one of the very first RSS subscribers). I guess it all started when Lunarpages linked you in one of their mails to me (not very sure).
All the best for September!

Ah yes I think it was the post about why caching is important on your blog

Wow, didn’t you’ve been a loyal subscriber since then :)

We always have a “boredom syndrome” a couple of times in our lives. The important thing is that we get out of that syndrome. Good for you, you got out of it. :D
Looking forward to your post-boredom-syndrome posts!
Good luck this September!
Cheers!

I still wish I had your traffic stats. I see you still maintaining over $100 a month. You might want to try CPA networks and/or email companies to review their products.

I never set a target on this blog, which I think I should :( I’m more like, just do the daily chores and see the earnings. Maybe it’s because I’m still taking this as a passion/hobby and not a business yet

Nihar September 6, 2009 at 6:46 am

Mike,

Don’t worry. You will come out of it and start coming with lengthy posts…

Your adsense earnings is very good relative to your traffic. really interested to know CPM and eCPM(but you can’t reveal) as it is against TOS :)

I guess you just have to somehow get lucky and post images that people look for in Google :D

I’m not using any image plug-in at all..just name the files in keywords as well as the Alt property

Ching Ya September 7, 2009 at 6:48 pm

Things will come around eventually, Michael. For your determination and writing ability, I’ll be sure to witness your come back in no time. ^^ Sorry for not dropping by a lot recently, but as one of your blog subscribers I still following your blog updates through emails. No worries, we all have our ups/downs in life that may affect our writing occasionally. Good to see you’re overcoming it and start afresh.

As of the writing, don’t pressure yourself too much either. Just write what you feel is right and appropriate. When inspiration comes you’ll know what to do. ^^ Best wishes!

Hi Ching Ya, thanks for letting me know that you are still following my blog updates :)

Yeah there are those days where you are filled with many ideas and inspirations and there are other days that you don’t. It’s encouraging to know there are friends supporting you “behind the scene”
