Daily Income

Filed under: Daily Bits, Web Empire — Saadh S @ 7:37 pm

I should probably create a “Category” for Vgescape alone. Anyway, sorry, I forgot to add daily earnings for the last few days. Someone actually emailed me to ask about them. It may have only been one person, but that was enough for me to never forget to change them from now on.

Went through a bit of a slump from

July 20 to July 23, averaging 5.43$ / day.
July 1 to July 25, average = 4.84$ / day.
July 14 (day new ads were implemented) to July 25, average = 7.33$ / day.

So, with this progress, it is very possible to top August’s prediction of either 250 or 300$. Vgescape should be able to accumulate the 250$ or 300$ on its own, with other sites hopefully being able to contribute another 50$. But most of the other sites are being made to begin earning money in September and October as sites take time to mature.

Daily Income

Filed under: Daily Bits — Saadh S @ 7:35 pm

Income for Adsense went from 9.91$ to 5.92$. I’m not upset because I had 200 less pageviews, the same click rate%, and only six less clicks. I just got unlucky with the value of the clicks. I need to find a way to stabilize income to over 10$ a day.

What are other ways to make income from content sites? Ways that could be implemented, affilaite programs are useless to me as I arleady have enough ads.

My ideas:
- Add a link unit from adsense
- Add those text link ads, like intellitext.

Alexa Rankings are Funny

Filed under: Daily Bits — Saadh S @ 7:29 pm

I’m half way done with my content and webmaster portion of Vgescape, so I began working on marketing Vgescape again as well.

I added the Alexa toolbar to IE and decided that whenever I update my site I’ll keep the toolbar open to raise my rank. The site was already at an impressive 250,000 for its low amount of visitors. Hah, by about 100 more visitors than usual (because of updates) and my own 100-200 pageviews per day:

Traffic Rank for vgescape.com (what’s this)

Today 1 wk. Avg. 3 mos. Avg. 3 mos. Change
38,808 47,944 245,306 down 77,895

Today’s To-Do List

Filed under: Daily Bits, Business, Entrepreneurship — Saadh S @ 7:28 pm

At first I wasn’t going to do this because I can never follow up on what I plan, but I thought it would be a better idea to write out what I want to accomplish each day so I stay focused:

  • Read up on 301 redirecting
  • Change address of all /nintendo-revolution pages of vgescape to /nintendo-wii
  • 301 Redirect all the old revolution pages to wii pages.
  • Pray my search engine rankings for wii don’t go down the drain.
  • Create a 3×3 table and interlink all themed pages of Vgescape for better user navigation (meaning repeat the same process over 50 times)
  • Add new news and updates to Vgescape to make it look as if its always been updated!
  • Fix up all five consoles specs, faqs, release dates, and controllers pages

Today’s To-Do List

Filed under: Daily Bits — Saadh S @ 7:27 pm

Okay, so yesterday’s to-do list didn’t work out so well. Repetitive work takes A LONG time to do, so I didn’t end up finishing as much as I intended to.

So what I want to accomplish today (overlapping from yesterday):

  • I’ve created all the 3×3 tables, but now I need to add links toward all the related pages (this will take a LONG time and be VERY boring).
  • Add a bunch of updates to all your new pages in the recent news, then add 2-5 new video game news articles to make the site look up to date.
  • Add 15 new big splash images to the main console pages of Vgescape.
  • Already fixed up specs, faqs. Need to fix up/finish release dates, controllers, prices, and pictures pages for all five consoles.
