January 2010 Flashback Report

by George Serradinho on February 3, 2010



Well, January has passed and I actually did not post much at all. It’s time to reflect on what happened in the month of January and hope to give you guys a better perspective on Serradinho Blog.

Posts from the Month:

Well, if you are not new here, then you know I do weekly roundups of posts on a Monday. They have posts published on this blog as well as great reads from other bloggers.

Usage:

I know my site usage is not as high as other bloggers, but I have seen a decrease in stats from last month and I know it has to do with posting less.

  • Visits: 4,623 (Previous – 4,925)
  • Pages: 8,906 (Previous – 11,214)
  • Pages/Visit: 1.93 (Previous – 2.28)
  • Bounce: 68.83% (Previous – 63.86%)
  • Average time: 2:32 (Previous – 3:43)
  • New visits: 71.27% (Previous – 64.35%)

Banner ads:

These are banners in my sidebar and below the comment form. The banner ads range from 125×125 and 115×30.

  • Thesis: 111
  • StudioPress theme: 65
  • OIO publisher: 38
  • Elegant theme: 28
  • FlexSqueeze theme: 23

Traffic:

  1. Google / Organic: 46.51%
  2. Direct: 16.81%
  3. yahoo / Organic: 4.91%
  4. Feedburner referal: 3.61%
  5. diythemes.com referral: 2.05%

Browsers:

As you can see from the stats below, Fx is taking the lead by far and there is no real competition. I see Chrome and Safari are getting kind of close, seems to be a good battle.

  1. Firefox: 61.78%
  2. IE: 18.13%
  3. Chrome: 11.96%
  4. Safari: 5.78%
  5. Opera: 1.32%

Free Downloads

As some of you already know, I have many free downloads available ranging from ebooks, plr articles, images and graphics, WordPress and Thesis tutorials.

So make sure you stop by and never miss any new downloads, use them or share them. It’s cool by me :)

Income:

  • Services Rendered: $215
  • Google Adsense: $20

That makes my total income for January 2010, a killer of $235. This was much lower than December, but I have just been to busy with private projects.

Anyways, my traffic from search engines is doing well for me, thanks to you all :)

Don’t worry about traffic bro, when you update your blog regularly and the traffic will be increased shortly. My blog is moving slow lately due to my busy workload and studies, don’t think it can climb up on the next few days.

Anyway, all the best bro!

Cheers,
Lee

@Atul – I have tried to go see what the ‘Other’ is and I can’t seem to see anything. Sorry buddy, I can’t help you out there.

As for the other projects, they are bringing some cash in, not much, but something to help me :)

Even though it’s a bit of a decrease from December, those aren’t bad stats at all! Nice little income from your blog as well.

Anyway, hope to see you posting more in February. Good luck with your ongoing projects though.

Comparing it with your December earnings, it appears pretty low, but don’t worry. Put in your hard work, and keep in mind that you are getting valuable experience which will surely get you a lot of money in future.
