July 2010 has been a good month when it came to traffic. Domain wide traffic across all properties (Online Finance Education, Desi Blog, Crude Oil Insights and Alchemy) finally crossed over the 5,000 unique visitors a month threshold and just under 9,000 page views a months. While in June we broke 5 dollars, July numbers with less than a week to go have been somewhat less exciting. The other experiment that took off reasonable well but was then sidelined was Adbrite. To Google Adsense’s 4.5 dollars in June, Adbrite only managed to add fifty cents for the same month.
However local concept/product sales generated by the properties have done much better. When you factor the two new contracts that we hope to close before mid August, the ROI on the search and traffic related investment has been unbelievable.
Do me a favor and try this out. Do a Google search on the following key words one by one and then tell me what you see, wherever you are. The key words are – treasury profitability, ALM crash course and ratio analysis course.
