September – Month 1 Of My Affiliate Marketing Journey Closes

I write this in the closing hours of September and I’m reflecting on this past months affiliate marketing progress.  While I did write and publish 14 article’s I only made $36.00 in commissions.

I also have to remember that I only got to work on this for two of the four weeks in September since my day job had me traveling with little time to work on this.

The fourteen articles I wrote was my highest article output in one month in quite some time. I fully expect that if I continue and increase my article writing output that the commissions will follow.

And since I’m a numbers kind of guy I’d put together a couple of excel charts that show the relationship between the number of clicks to the dollars earned. Of course there’s no surprise here the more clicks the more dollars made.   Here they are:

I have to also remember that I also published all fourteen of these articles at articlesbase as well as a few other article directories along the way.

Also if you follow this blog you’ll know that I’ve been messing around with article marketing for quite a long time without a lot of success.  But as I’m writing this I realize that maybe one of my issues is I’ve never set goals for myself.

So in October my goal is to get 50 articles published. If I can accomplish that I will almost double the number of articles I’ve published. And then going forward the goal is to increase the number articles published per month by 10% until I can get to a 100 articles a month level.

Wish me luck as I wish you all the best in your affiliate marketing endeavors.
