Adding More Tribal Fusion

Thursday, August 23rd, 2007

I added a couple more Tribal Fusion spots to the Counter Strike site today. It was earning between $7 – $11 a day. I hope the new additions will boost that by at least $5/day.
I really haven’t done anything with that site in a couple weeks. I want to examine some affiliate options for [...]

Some Interest In Counter Strike

Thursday, July 19th, 2007

I received a message from someone yesterday who was interested in purchasing the Counter Strike site. They were interested in the site from the previous sale that I won. He asked me about some of the earnings stats. I told him I was looking for offers somewhere around $20,000+. I don’t think he’ll go for [...]

Counter Strike Website Earnings Update

Friday, July 13th, 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 [...]

Tribal Fusion – Counter Strike Update

Wednesday, July 11th, 2007

OK, I guess its true what they say, a phone call is worth a thousand emails. (Actually I just made that up.) I called my account manager at Tribal Fusion and she got me set up right away with their ads on the Counter Strike site. Things are really rolling now. I have been accepted [...]

Adding Kontera – Counter Strike Update

Wednesday, July 11th, 2007

Last night I placed the Kontera codes on the Counter Strike site. For my other site, Kontera has been running at about 30-50% of adsense. It hasn’t greatly impacted adsense earnings however, and thats the nice thing. It does make me wonder though, how many clicks on Kontera are legitimate advertisement interest versus misclicks. If [...]

Less Is More With Adsense

Tuesday, July 10th, 2007

Adsense has been really kind to me since I made those ad size changes. The highest earning day I had before the changes was $27. That was a Saturday. Gaming related traffic seems to peak on a Saturday. Last Saturday I pulled down $47 through adsense. I have been doing some reading, and apparently its [...]

Maximizing Adsense

Wednesday, July 4th, 2007

So after switching from the 468 ad unit to the much larger 336×280 adsense block, I am already noticing a bid difference in adsense earnings. I already have a 75% increase in CTR. This should translate into substantially higher earnings. I haven’t even been running this larger block a full day yet and I already [...]

New CounterStrike Website Is Now Transferred

Wednesday, July 4th, 2007

Today I got the details to the new server I ordered for the Counter Strike site that I bought last week. The previous owner performed the transfer for me which is awesome. I always ask. It can’t hurt, and they will usually have a better idea at what needs to be done than you will. [...]

Transaction Update

Saturday, June 30th, 2007

Today I worked with the seller again. He transferred the domain to me. I really like godaddy’s process for domain name transfers. First of all, its free which is a bonus. Secondly, and most importantly, its super easy to do. It would be really nice if all webmasters just registered their domains with www.GoDaddy.com. I [...]

Sale In Progress

Friday, June 29th, 2007

Yesterday I bought the website that I was talking about. I don’t think disclosing the auction I was interested in affected the price too much. The last three sites that I have purchased have all been by directly contacting the seller and negotiating a BIN price. Thats why I have two bids on the auction [...]
