Published on Wealthy Affiliate — a platform for building real online businesses with modern training and AI.

I decided to follow the lead of some other members here on WA and post my latest statistics along with some goals for the upcoming month. This is probably something I should have been doing all along, but better late than never, right?

My focus has been on my affiliate website (http://FamilyStaples.com), so that's what I'll report on here.

A few things that I did with my website this month:

* Began creation of an email mailing list (up to 32 members) using MailChimp

- Sent out a welcome email and a subsequent new-blog notificaiton email

* Added an email signup form to my posts/pages

* Added an RSS feed in my right-side column to make my pages more interesting

* Wrote three (3) new blog posts

* Picked up one new affiliate (of 2 applied for)

* $0 in sales in January, but did receive $100 in commissions for sales in December 2014
