Jul'18 Results: $4,373! It's Amazing How Fast Income Can Rise!

Hello my friends,
I'm happy to report that I am sharing my July 2018 results after all because it's a pretty big jump and, from my last post, it sounded like the community enjoys my posts so I will continue sharing what I can that will give you some insights to what I do.
I must say that I will be sharing a lot more once I have hit my Vegas goal which is getting even closer these days!
I will have an analysis of my entire timeline and offer lots of data crunching which I really enjoy being an accountant at heart.
The header image I used for this post is very true how this business works. With each post you write, you are putting down seeds for your site to grow.
Results For July 2018:
My income for July really jumped this month because I had a record FIVE YEARLY membership upgrades that happened in the month!
Okay, before you ask, I calculate all my numbers in the month they occur so it doesn't matter when things get paid out, so my numbers represent transactions that are earned in the month they occured.
Payouts can be manipulated for the WA affiliate program in the sense that you can control when you cash out those credits so you can really make one month look better than another.
This really matters when you earn so many credits that you're earning a few hundred a month from just people setting up their accounts and buying domains.
Also, when the yearly commissions do payout after 30 day hold, it doesn't make sense for me to say I earned that in Sep (since I'll be paid in Sep for these five upgrades).
Instead, for each month, my totals include all sales, recurring, credits, yearly memberships earned in the month.
Even without the Five yearly upgrades, my July still increased $700 from June.
I had been getting yearly upgrades every month since March 2018, 1 to 2 a month, but 5 in July was incredible to see.
This just shows what could happen when you start having over 100 active premiums on your list! :) I have about 140 at the moment.
I haven't given any WA screenshots (because they never captured everything I've earned) but today, I'll add my July payment:
And here's a screenshot of my ads from Mediavine:
I started that Mediavine program last week of May, and they don't payout til 66 days after the month's earnings so my first payment is still to come in a few days here, then I'll start getting monthly payments.
You could only apply to this ad network when you have reached 25,000 sessions in your last 30 days which I did in May.
All in all, I haven't done anything much different in July to have this income increase, although my conversion has increased by about 3.8% this month so that helped a lot!
My focus in July was spreading the word about my coaching services so both here and on my website, I drive that home in every review post I wrote in July as well as editing the messages I send out to my referrals when they join and when they set up their profile accounts.
Nobody has to offer coaching services as this is just an affiliate program and all I need to do is drive people here but helping others succeed only pays you back big time so this is a no-brainer for me to help which I've always done anyway but now I'm telling people about my help (making it more of a big deal) and that has helped with conversions.
Blog Stats
This is the first month that my traffic has not increased in the double digits, instead it's only increased about 7.5% over June:
Users: 40,463 (1,300 Avg per day), highest point for July 1,869/day.
Sessions: 47,556
Pageviews: 64,599
Email List: 8,350
Still under 2,000 users a day and no new records for per day traffic.
I have major dips as you can see as the week goes towards the weekend. Saturdays are my lowest traffic points, guess people use Saturdays as their main relax day and not worried about making money online. Lol
Thursdays and Fridays usually decrease towards Saturdays as well, but sometimes they could surprise me. My best days for traffic are Sunday - Wed.
How Many Posts Do I Have?
Yes I've hit 500 posts!!!
Okay, that didn't hit 500 til this morning when my post for today published, so technically I had 499 in July. Lol
WHY DO I HAVE SO MANY POSTS?
Keywords in posts = traffic
Traffic = Visitors
Visitors = Money
This is all I use for traffic, I don't pay a single penny for any type of advertising or promotions.
All the visitors I get and HOW I get referrals are all from the traffic I get from Google. I don't even know if I get traffic from Yahoo or Bing, cuz I don't check basically. Lol
Most of the things I write are product reviews specifically for making money.
I'm going to see if I could slow down on my writing and concentrate on doing things that will increase my conversions even more.
I also feel like I'm not getting enough referrals for the traffic I'm having, so again, I think I need to concentrate on converting these visitors.
Although, my traffic didn't increase that much more than June so that could be why my referrals didn't jump that much for July.
Still, I was able to get 673 referrals in July, an all time high. :)
I hope to have another update before August is over... *fingers crossed*!!
I hope you all enjoyed this post and I hope you guys had an awesome July as well!

You are brilliant. You did it girll. You worked at it and implemented every bit of training here that you could. This is a life time business. You have this down to a fine art.
You are awe inspiring.
Even More so. Not many women get to Vegas Grace.
I just want to give you a big hug. Keep on going Grace. Your a Diamond. I love your updates. :))

Even though lots of my energy is going into developing my Amazon website now, I decided to outsource some content for my new website that'll be more dedicated to WA promotion, to gain Google's trust until I write my own WA posts.
Still 5 more months left to make it to Vegas :)
P.S. so glad you decided to continue sharing your success posts! I am sure you will join the 10k/month club very soon!!! ;)
I've said it many times before: You are definitely one of the most consistent people I know on the platform. And your consistency is paying off.
Thank you for sharing your success and inspiring us for greatness!
I'm going to add this one to my Favorites!
One quality post per day, and you've done no external paid ads, it's just organic traffic. You've cast a big net, and now you're catching some amazing profits!
I've followed you as you're the inspiration when I start thinking "Oh, I should do a video instead of writing".
Congratulations on your continuing successes.
Fantastic, and great rewards for all your effort!! Thanks for sharing.
What impresses me the most is the increase from July 2017 to 2018 - A whoping 6,700% increase!!!!!!
You really are an example to follow! 500 Posts!!!! No wonder you are having success!!!!!!
I can just imagine how many hours you have invested in your business!!!
Just keep going! :)
Cheers to your success!

However the info you provided have me a real picture of the time it can take to get where I would like to be. I will follow yoy. I think I can learn a lot. Thanks for sharing
The bit I love the most is you do not pay for any advertising. How cool is that?! Your costs are WA and no doubt Jaaxy and not sure what other tools you may pay for.... but you would know how very little your business tool costs are.
Very very cool Grace, well done.
Just comes down to as they say in this online world and if something works - to rinse and repeat.
And you do that beautifully!
Thanks for sharing and again congratulations.
Cheers, Sharon
You’re the BOMB!
... I’ve had (3) referrals since I started WA, (the end of April) could possibly have one conversion soon, I’m coaching her quite a bit! I’m so anxious, II’ll have 300 by Vegas, because I’m dying to meet you!
YOU’RE MY HERO!
Have a blessed day my friend,
Cora
"Keywords in posts = traffic
Traffic = Visitors
Visitors = Money"
The Google traffic (Organic) is what we want because that's our money traffic since those visitors will be coming every month to see what's new. YYYYYEEEEESSSS!!!! Grace thank you for giving us that extra booster to stay on our path to success. You just have proven that this is for real. I'm going to keep pushing those posts. I have to sharpen my fingers, I feel sorry for my keyboard. Congrats Grace, really happy for you!
I'm glad you don't use ads or anything like that. I don't use ads or promotions too.
Obviously, you are an expert at writing reviews. Arggg... I'm still strugging on writing reviews. Most of the time, I think I put too much info in them... but they're all relevant in my opinion. You must have a review template.
On your email list... do you get a lot of response back? Are some of these people converting? I don't have an email list set up yet, when is a good time to do this?
Wow... 500 articles published is an amazing accomplishment. I can see you are very focused and determined. I need to work on this.
673 referrals in July alone... Congratulations Grace!
You are really inspiring me to do more. Get my jet fuel going...
Thank you and I really want to hear more from you!
Wishing you continued growing success!
Monica
It sure motivates me to continue to strive towards my goal of being able to leave the 9-5 and be able to spend time with family and friends and do what I want to do when I want.
Thanks for sharing as always.
This is wonderful news. So glad you decided to share anyways. (haters gonna hate).
But this is great stuff. I love how you have multiple streams of income and numbers are going up and up.
Feels good to have a brainchild maturing.
This is possible everyone... just follow the training. No tricks, no gimmicks, just work and dedication.
One quick question though, how do you know how many “Active” Premium members you have? You count the number of recurring?
