It’s the end of the month. I’m having a very hard time to get motivated. Last night I sat in front of my computer and basically wasted about an hour and a half just going through some stats… looking at some affiliate programs I have up and running and checking to see if any of them had been productive in the past few days since I last checked.

I’d have to say that I’m pretty darn happy that I checked NeverBlueAds - I forgot I had a couple of text ads running from them and realized when I signed in, I had made a $1.25. I know, not much for sure… but when you’re expecting a big fat $0. It was a little boost in the right direction. Which also made me thing a bit more about adding them to other sites that I have up and running that are currently making me squat… in clicks.

I have that monkey on my back that is my Dance Music Site. I’m not sure if the whole genre is dying out - or what. But Google doesn’t pay me well at all. Very, Very sad. So either the market is super saturated or there just isn’t any requests for my dance music love. A couple of years ago I was pulling in $10 a month… now I’d be lucky to see $1-2. It’s depressing. Why am I hanging on to Adsense on my dance site? Because I’ve been lazy and haven’t really put anything else up… for a while. I’ve found that Adsense - although insanely low - was placing relevant ads on my site. I haven’t found any other ad company who could do that.

But with my little success from NeverBlueAds - I thought maybe instead of adding CPC - I’d place CPA / Lead ads on there instead - in a text format (seem to perform better than graphics… but I’ll test that theory)… and see what happens next. I might put the text ads in an ad rotator - so there is variety when someone returns to the site. I think this will be my project for today.

Because it’s the end of the month - I just feel like slacking… when really I should be planning for May. But I think a few days off will do me good… after I change up my ads for my Dance Music Site.
