Time to monetize
Hello my WA friends,
I have now reach 41 posts and working on the 42nd. I have some traffic to my site, both direct and organic.
Some of my articles end up either position 0 or 1 in Bing or in the first page.
However, nothing that I could see in Google.
Is it time to monetize?
What do you think? Any comments will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Yes, absolutely!
Huge traffic isn't required to be a success.
The key is engagement - if your audience is engaged, you can be a huge success without a huge following.
Hi Jeannine,
Thank you for your idea. When you say engagement, does that equate to conversion?
Engagement means that the readers embrace what you write - they read your posts, they follow your suggestions, they comment on your posts and they buy your recommendations.
Hi Richard,
So far I have 346 new users according to the report since I started 3.5 months ago.
I'm not sure if that means significantly or not.
Thanks for asking.
I don’t know what is meant by ‘new users’ however if you’re getting traffic you should definitely mobetise!
:-)

Hi Israel!
By monetize, do you mean Google Adsense or affiliate links? Have you joined any affiliate programs yet? I am still waiting to hear from Google Adsense for over a month.
But either way, I say it would be okay.
I will also tell you that Partha advised me not to worry about monetization right now. He talked about me working towards getting 5,000-10,000 visitors to my site as my main goal (through writing content). And although I will still add affiliate links to my articles, it's mainly because it's easier to do now than a whole bunch later.
Hope this makes sense.

Hi Lynn,
