After yet another sub-$100 month with Adsense and no success on the affiliates front I’m going to switch gears a bit and go for some link sales.
I registered with Link Worth awhile ago but totally forgot about it. I got an email a few days ago saying that I’d made a sale for $20 for a rotating link on my main page so I’ve sort of been inspired to look into selling more links this way. I still have to work out how to install the code though! It’s times like these I wish I were more of a computer geek.
So I registered today with Text Links Ads and I’ve also been trawling the Digital Point forums and have had a few offers come from that. One was for $25-35/month for a sitewide link and the other was asking what I would charge for a link to his site in the form of a recommendation (in place of another site that’s always been there for free).
I think if I can manage to sort out the code for this Linkworth offer and the sitewide link for this month I’ll be really happy. That’ll be an increase of 50% on the previous month’s earnings which is much better than the 0% ‘jumps’ in income over the past few months!!
This is all new to me so even putting a value to a link on my page is a bit confusing. I’ll keep you informed of how things turn out.

Well done on that $20 link - it sounds like it’a alot harder work than one thinks - and its all little steps that will get you there.
Keep at it.

Most things in life have plateaus, and they frequently defeat us. It’s great that you have found a way to move up to a higher one. I’ve enjoyed reading your posts about the different things you have looked at and tried.

Great that you’ve been inspired to try something new. It’s only when you step out of your usual routine that anything moves. Just don’t forget to keep evolving with your ideas and efforts. Everything, alas has a shelf life. Good work Kirsty.
