Counter Strike Website Earnings Update

By Max | July 13, 2007

I have finally been approved for all the ad networks and placed all their ads on my site. When I purchased the Counter Strike website a couple weeks ago, it was earning an average of $24/day in June all from Adsense.

Yesterday I earned $78.48 from the website. I admit, that I think the daily average earnings will be lower than this, since I had the best day with Adsense yesterday. Here’s the breakdown:

Adsense: $56.49
TribalFusion: $19.00
Kontera: $2.99

I am pretty disappointed in the Kontera earnings. I may even drop that network. An extra $90/mon might not be worth the annoyance of those ads. I think I’ll be able to boost the TribalFusion earnings somewhat by adding more impressions. Adsense was a lot higher than normal.

While $78 in one day is likely to be higher than the average, it still represents an incredible boost over the previous average of $24. I think I’ll be able to achieve $60/day on average with this site. That works out to $1800/mon. Based on that monthly earn, I think I’ll be able to sell the site for over $20,000, a 100%+ ROI!! I paid $10,000 for the site.

    In reading these updates it makes me wonder if you might be compelled to keep the site instead of flipping it? I know the intent was to flip but for me it would be hard to do with the success you have had so far.

    Max: Does Kontera do optimizations for the first week or so to maximize ad revenue? If so, how different from the first day are the ‘optimized’ earnings?

    Matt,
    Kontera was $3.64 the day before. I don’t why they are so much lower. The only thing I can think of is ipods get higher paying ads than video games.

    Joey,
    I haven’t for sure decided to sell this one. If I don’t sell this one I’ll probably sell one of the others.

    Why don’t you hire someone to help you look after the websites in the India or the Philippines instead of selling them.

    I’d say hire someone in Vancouver, BC. ;)
