September 2018 Marks My First $500+ Month (Amazon Niche Site Update)

Hi WA'rriors,

This is just a quick update on my Amazon niche site that I've been working on lately.

We all love them income report posts, don't we? :)

Plus it's a good way for me to keep track of my site's progress.

Anyway...

As of September 30, 2018, my website has made $520 in commissions.

(Last month it was $325).

In a month, my website will be 1 year old.

Currently I have 45 posts, most of them best of's, some are individual product reviews and the rest are info/how-to posts.

(I can only imagine how much $$$ I'd have made if I had more content).

Traffic was close to 300 visitors per day but last few days it kept dropping to less than 200 for some reason... I guess end of September not too many people search for my niche products?

I will see how traffic is in the next few days to see if it's just a temporary slump in traffic.

What's next?

Now, it's important not only to maintain the $500+ months, but also strive to increase it. My next goal is $1000/month (on regular months). I have NO idea what to expect during the holidays, that's for sure.


My big thanks to Kyle, Carson and the whole Wealthy Affiliate community, you guys are awesome!

You are on a roll Zarina. Keep it up. Hopefully next month you can get to $1,000 and you will surely be on your way to financial freedom. All the best for next month.

Thank you for your support, Kuu! I will try to put out more content to increase my chances of hitting my $1000/month in October, but we'll see!

1

Good luck. We will be rooting for you.

Thank you! :)

Let's go champ!

And as for the reasons why your traffic dropped: Jewish holidays and all the political scandals likely played a major role. My traffic dropped too for this period and it's normal for September.

Thank you, Vitaliy! :)

Thanks for letting me know, I didn't really think about these being the possible factors to my traffic drop. Happy to see my Amazon site achieving new milestones nonetheless!

2

Wow good job. That’s surprising because for a site that is a year old it should have way more content. I know my site has over 50 posts and is like 8 months old but I am trying to reach 100 posts. You must have a really good niche , I need to get started on my amazon niche site I kind of left it on the back burners while I focus on my main site

2

Yeah, I know. I started this site after my accident/orthopaedic surgery, so a lot of my energy was going into recovery. I was slow with content production but what matters is that I continued putting it up.

Can you imagine if I had more content?

(And used best of list posts, which definitely what helped).

My niche is pretty expensive, so if people buy stuff related to my niche it ranges from $20-100 in commissions per product.

Congratulations Zarina! Wishing you many more successful months.

2

Thank you very much, Jackie!

2

Thank you!

Wonderful news! I love hearing when members reach new milestones.

2

Yes, me too! Now my next milestone is $1000/month.

2

Love it!

2

Thank you :)

Congratulations!
Seems like some days are busier than others...

1

Thank you! Yeah, I am not super alarmed, but keeping an eye on traffic changes.

2

Depends of niche and audience.... the week end jams...

2

Vitaliy said it could be the Jewish holidays and political scandals but overall it's normal for September to see decrease

No worries... schools cost a lot
