Financial Sites.

[moonshield]

How are people doing with their financial sites? I have quite a few domains I am purchasing with finance in mind.

[incka]

OK, if I had time to do link exchanges I'm sure I could make a fw hundred a day, but from debt management guide it's only about $5 a day, nevertheless, it all adds up...

[moonshield]

how much traffic do you recieve at debtmanagementguide.co.uk?

[incka]

My stats programs tell me 80 visits a day. Google adsense tells me 60 page views a day.

[ozgression]

I am also developing a few finance related sites.

But, it is difficult because there is alot of strong competition from the big financial news and information websites and advertising is also very expensive.

Cheers...

$5 a day does add up, $1800 a year. Good money for just having it set.

The life of a webmaster is good, maybe incka will still be making $5 a day 10 years from now on that site, plus all the money he will make from building sites for the next 10 years.

Residual income is the great secret. Make 10 sites make $10.00 a day each and you got $36,500 a year! It's best when there sites that you never have to touch, such as AWS stores (Don't bother making one, we got more than enough competition. :D )

[moonshield]

yes, that has always been my plan... make 50 sites, $5 or $10 a site... $250 or $500 a day... a nice comfortable income.

I have a finance site with data on tax law and despite a decent PR (about 4, I think), it gets very, very little traffic.

[moonshield]

how much is very little? Is it profitable what-so-ever?

[Yoda]

Sure it's profitable; it's nearly impossible to make a content site that isn't. Just in miniscule amounts. A dozen visitors is a good day.

[incka]

Looking at this month, debt management guide has picked up income to $10 a day.

[Mike]

Most of your traffic come from search engines?

[moonshield]

$10 a day... thats pretty good. It pays for the registration in one day.

[Emancipator]

10 dollars a day is fantastic in my books :)

[MarkB]

$10 a MONTH ain't bad in my books ;)

[Mike]

Hehe...

Mark, could you get on MSN tonight?

[incka]

Mark has MSN? I've missed loads of community advise - NooooooO!

[Emancipator]

Markb 10 dollars period aint bad lol

[moonshield]

Emancipator... you are not making only $10 a month are you?

[incka]

Yeah, with the traffic you've got I'm surprised your not making $1000 a month...

[Emancipator]

Emancipator... you are not making only $10 a month are you?

lol no. But I was just pointing out $10.00 a month is great. You could be getting nothing. :)

I am still messing with my ads to try and make them profitable, its a secondary goal, next to my readers and my content. I just need to find better payouts, CPAS did not work on my site, and the cpms I have are quite low.

Add me to your IM and I'll help you with ads, I know which ones work best in which places from experience.
