Ok, first of all, I know that my picture for this post is a little childish, but I like it and it expresses the way I feel about this report: THRILLED!
It is the end of the month again and time to tell you the earnings for May 2014.
I have to say, I am thrilled with this report for various reasons, but especially because:
1. I have been able to increase my income from the month before
2. I have been able to increase and diversified my traffic.
Traffic:
This month has been the highest in traffic so far: 41.192 thousand page views!
I could not believe how well it has been!
The reason for this increased? The referrals from other websites.
I have been posting and submitting my patterns to every place that I know is there for craft-related products. It takes a lot of time (sometimes I spend more time in the computer than in the sewing machine) but it is worthy :)

As you can see, there are some really good traffic days in May. I was lucky to be featured 3 times this month in different websites; I have the endorsement of two amazing bloggers, so that brought a great amount of new readers.
Ok, so Do you want to know how much I made, right?
May income earnings: $425.67!!!
Here is the details:
Shareasale: 286.68
Infolinks: 70.22
Linkconnector: 1.44
Commission Junction: 4.7
Sverve: 4.1
Adsense: 14.23
Sponsors: 35
Viglink: 0.30
Patterns sold: 9
Shareasale:
As you can see, Shareasale has been (again) the biggest earning this month. Mostly (again) because of Craftsy website.
I have to say that I love the way Shareasale has to custom links. Compare to other services, I can actively choose the exact links I want to have on my post; that gives me more freedom to create something that it is appealing to readers and honest to my own taste.
Infolinks:
In the case of infolinks, I am very satisfied with it. It works great, it takes about 2 minutes to set it all up on your blog and I do not have to worried or do anything about them.
What I like the most about it, is that I can customize the way it is going to look on my website. I can choose from the colors to the amount of links per post. Plus, they pay more than other ppc networks.
To give you an example:
During the day with the highest traffic (5,000 page views) I made 13 dollars through Infolinks. That is not bad actually, if you compare the same day, my earnings with Adsense were $2,82.
I would highly recommend Infolinks to any website, especially when you are starting your blog, because it is extremely easy to use and set, plus it gives you a little bit of extra cash when you needed the most.
Sponsors:
I am happy to announce that I have my first sponsor: Double Decker Fabric has just signed with us to sponsor some fantastic and fun ''stuff''. You will see later ;)
I love to have them with us because the store has the funkiest, coolest and most modern fabric prints that I have seen so far...and they are proudly Canadian :)

And that is all for this month. I am not going to make any goals this time, because it stresses me out a lot! LOL.
See you next month!
