Travsite.com: May 2006

I thought that it would be fun to show what a pittance I make from the advertisements on this website. I'll use April 2006 as an example, one of my better months.

Keep in mind that I see an unusual amount of traffic for a personal site. This site has been around since 1999 and I constantly add new stuff, so I get an unusual amount of visitors from random Google searches. In the month of April, I had 8,960 visits and 94,250 pageviews. Here's how that works out in monthly earnings:

Section	Page impressions	Clicks	Earnings
travsite. com/ Yorkie-Poo-Puppy	4,892	119	$7.70
travsite. com/ 2004	271	7	$5.16
travsite. com/ wedding	7,596	9	$3.42
travsite. com/ camping	1,340	7	$2.73
travsite. com/ 2003	2,034	39	$2.19
travsite. com/ 2006	455	4	$1.71
travsite. com/ havasu	2,835	1	$0.86
travsite. com/ Glamis	6,945	5	$0.69
travsite. com/ Jeep	795	2	$0.49
travsite. com/ offroad	1,874	4	$0.42
travsite. com/ 2005	218	2	$0.20
travsite. com/ 2002	20	3	$0.12
travsite. com/ pismo	300	1	$0.10
travsite. com/ motocross	452	1	$0.03
Total for April 2006			$30.47

As you can see, Moby the Yorkie Poo is our top earner, bringing in $7.70 per month all by himself. Unfortunately, that is much less than his share of the family budget. He also suffered a major financial setback this month after several visits to the vet, caused by a wayward trip into a patch of foxtails. Needless to say, Moby is deep in debt and his credit line is wearing thin.

Moby slowly earning his keep through online advertising.
