April 2020 In Review
- Adthrive – Super happy with Adthrive ad revenue, but significantly down for April (by almost $1,000 – yikes!), even with my blog traffic being significantly up. Due to COVID-19 everyone is seeing budget cuts right now, and the ad industry is no different! Budgets seem to have been cut across the board, so ad revenue is way down.
- Etsy Sales – Etsy sales are looking great this month, and my highest earning month to date. Pattern sales increase is likely in relation to more people spending time online and looking for crafts to do at home during quarantine.
- Youtube – 11,700 Youtube subscribers.
- Amazon Affiliate – Amazon affiliate earnings are looking good this month. This income really seems to vary, and not super dependable for me.
- Sponsored Content – This will always vary – I had no sponsored projects this month.
- Blog posts – I posted 1 blog posts this month. I temporarily went back to my desk job (to fill in for the person who replaced me when I left to blog full-time), so blogging bandwidth was running thin!
- Final Thoughts – Considering I only posted 1 blog post this month (a crochet pattern) and still netted over $1,500 – I’ll take it!
