October Blog Income Report – October was a unique month for me. I am at a different place from the beginning of the month until the end of the month when it comes to blogging. As you read this income report, you will see what I mean.
I’ve learned so much and am excited to share it all with you!
I’m about to show you how I grew my income by 200% in just the course of a month. It’s been amazing, and I have some big plans these next few months.

October Blog Income Report Stats
October was HUGE when it came to page views. I put together a few strategies I learned throughout the month and BOOM! it exploded.
I mainly have the Affiliate Marketing for Bloggers e-course to thank in helping me not only figure out how to increase my Amazon affiliate income, but other affiliate income (and bounce rate!).
I also credit my new Tailwind pinning schedule I created in helping me increase my Pinterest monthly viewers by 415,362 in JUST 30 DAYS!
Thank you!
Check your email to confirm your subscription and start having emails sent to your inbox.

I continue to see this climb every day. I couldn’t do that without Tailwind. I pin everything in just 1 hour for a month then spend about 15 minutes a week just checking up on it. It’s amazing!
I have an amazing code that you can get your first 100 pins free on there to try it out. That’s 30 days of pinning for FREE meaning you too could increase your monthly Pinterest viewers by more than 415,000. Insane right?
Speaking of amazing deals, Bluehost has a current deal for $3.95/month to start up your blog. I have had nothing but great experiences with them and you honestly can’t beat the price!
Page Views: 27,420
Sessions: 22,199
Bounce Rate: 86.46%


October Strategy
Using the strategies I’ve learned from the Affiliate Marketing for Bloggers e-course, I was able to decrease my bounce rate by 2.16%. This is the lowest it’s ever been, and it only took about 15 minutes of genius tweaks to get away from sounding salesy. I guess that was a big turn off here!
I’m telling you this course is WORTH it!
It’s not only 3 weeks’ worth of material (you can get through it much sooner if you make it a priority), it also includes includes case studies using her own posts so you can really get into her mindset.
And I have to say this course is CHEAP! I have taken other courses for the same price and worth a lot more and have not had anything compared to the knowledge she gives in such a real tone.
Just look at the increase in my affiliate income below and you will see what I mean!
How Did October Goals Go?
Increase my Affiliate Income: Goal met! I increased my Amazon affiliate income by 100%!
Increase my Ad Income: Goal met! My highest ad income month yet.
Get 18,500 Page Views: Goal met! Apparently, I was an overachiever or too modest in my page views for the month since I ended up with more than 8,900 page views than my goal.
Reach 1,800 Pinterest Followers: Goal met! I ended October with 1,879 followers. My page is growing pretty organically, which I am happy about.
October Income Report
Affiliate Income: $227.72
Yep, that’s right. I more than doubled my affiliate income from last month. The Affiliate Marketing for Bloggers e-course has really made a difference and I expect to grow from here!
Ad Income: $99.73
My increase in page views allowed me to increase my ad revenue! I almost doubled my ad income because of it!
Sponsored Posts/Products: $405.27
I completed several sponsored posts toward the end of September and into October. Moving forward, I have made the decision to cut back on these and focus on traffic and affiliate income. I expect this amount to drop drastically next month because of it.
Expenses: $97
I purchased the Ultimate Blogger’s Toolkit this month and I will be purchasing this EVERY year from now on. I was already contemplating purchasing another course to learn more information, but this includes 77 different courses and e-books for such a small price! This toolkit will get me through an entire year without needing purchase anything.
I’ve only gone through two e-courses as of now, but I already have my next course lined up! Just those 3 courses together would’ve cost $423, so I already saved $326 even if I don’t do any more courses in there!
As you can tell by my income stats, I’ve already made more than the price of the toolkit back with what I’ve learned in the Affiliate Marketing for Bloggers course and will continue to earn that money every month!
Total: $635.72
November Goals:
Reach 25,000 sessions
Reach 2,100 Pinterest Followers
Finish at least 2 email opt-ins
Increase to $100 in Ad Revenue (I was SO close to this last month)

Well done for everything you've achieved. I hit the 25000 mark a few months ago on my blog and switched to MediaVine for my ads. The set up was super simple and my ad income has increased more than 5 times. The only downside is that I'll have done 3 months with no ad income. With Mediavine they pay Septembers money out in December (I think I've got that right).
Best wishes with hitting all of your November goals.

That is awesome! I'm hoping I can reach that soon too Wendy!
