March was (and has been) by far my biggest one month total thanks to the direct sale of 3 text link ads to a new advertiser for $1,000 (minus PayPal fee). I remember how excited I was when we negotiated the rate. It was chilly. I was in Hong Kong. I had just bought a new ASUS eeePC laptop. I don’t care where you are traveling or living, a grand can make a BIG impact!
I also received a Google AdSense payoff, and upped my Linkworth earnings thanks to another text link sale through their marketplace.
In March 2008, I earned $1,494.
- $1184 from direct sales of text links
- $136 from Text Link Ads
- $106 from Google AdSense
- $68 from Linkworth
March turned out to account for 25% of my total earnings for 2008. Unfortunately, the advertiser chose not to renew in 2009. As you will soon see, the economic crisis which started to spiral out of control in late 2008 has had a noticeable impact on my renewals and new sales.
