In November, for the first time, we experienced “holidays” revenues weeks, which are scary low. Thanksgiving week was far our worst week in several months. A week with extremely low number of people coming through the sites, therefore low revenue.  We figured people probably spend quality time away or with their family ;)

Nevertheless, we are, once more, reaching a new high with a big total of 2109.10. This is very encouraging.

This month, for the first time, we made more in affiliate-based revenue than in adsense-based revenue.

Table of progress

And on thanksgiving, we had a taste of what the new google will be like… We were really excited when we realized that many of our websites are showing on the first page or near the first page with google caffeine! However, Google decided to postpone to the new year the full release of caffeine because they did not want to risk messing up their servers and people’s site before the holidays… SIGH.

This month has sure not looked as great as September in terms of growth. I have been averaging 40-60$ per day, with a low of 23$ and a high of 91$. Too many of my websites are still not showing on the first page for the main keyword yet. Also, I noticed a decrease in the number of sales. Maybe September back-to-school had something to do with increase spending and purchase through amazon.com. While we are still working on bringing the remaining websites to the first page (to the top 2 preferably), I created 2 new websites, and hope to have them ready for Christmas! I intend of creating another 2 websites over the weekend, all amazon affiliate sites. I am particularly interested in Amazon for the upcoming months because I know that the number of searches/purchases surge exponentially for the holidays.

I hope that for my end-of-month update, some of my websites will have moved to the first spot, or at least first page!
