like most of the blog that i read, their main source of traffic are search engine, no wonder you have 60% new visitor..
it must be a great month for you..
Hey George,
I think the revenues from Google need to be optimized. You have scope for much higher pay from Adsense. Why don’t you tweak your Adsense color/font settings. Maybe you can also tell us which one works and which one doesn’t!
By the way, I have started my own blog for ‘Niche bloggers’. Check it out.

@Anand – i will see what I come up with, need to get it working harder for me.
I have similar traffic with your blog, lol! Don’t worry about the earning Serradinho, I believe that you could make big money with your thesis customization skill, superb!
Regards,
Lee

@Lee Ka Hoong – thanks for that, I think I can make a few bucks and take care of a few expenses on my side thus creating more opportunities for me to venture into
Now it sounds like I have a plan.
Great! I’m going to invest in my new project as well, will need to take some times to work on it. I hope your plan/project goes smooth too Serradinho!

Nice stats, your doing quite well overall. You are doing well with organic traffic and that’s the best source of traffic you can get.
I think you should monitize your blog in a better way, as i’m sure you are able to get better earnings.
Keep up good work.
.-= Teen Blogger´s last blog ..Why Teens Should Start Blogging for Bucks Now =-.
@Teen Blogger – I think that is my next step, get Adsense to increase.
As per your traffic your earnings are good.

.-= Extreme John´s last blog ..Halloween Costume Contest Pictures and Voting =-.
@Extreme John – yes, Google is not doing so well. I might just need to optimize it a bit.

How ur adsence earning is just 3$ in month or u mistyped. :O
.-= ankit @ All About India´s last blog ..Yuvraj Singh six sixes video in T20 World Cup Against England =-.
@ankit – I took adsense off and then put it back so it was only there for a few days.
Why your adsense income is so low? Also, your bounce rate bit high.
@Rahul – my adsense was low as I took it off for most of the month. As for the bounce rate, I’m trying to work on that to keep users longer on my blog.
I was looking back at this again…You have a wonderful user engagement for the traffic you have – 25-30 comments for almost every blog post is amazing!
.-= Anand Srinivasan´s last blog ..Why The Money You Make Does Not Measure Your Success =-.
@Anand – thanks a lot, but I think you should be thanking my readers/visitors. Without them, it would not be that high.
Hi George ~ I followed over from Greg’s site ~ we both made his roundup list for this month. I enjoyed reading your stats and such and I’ll spend some time looking around while I’m here too. Let me know if there’s anything I can help with … I’m pretty easy to reach. *SmiLes* Suzanne
