I thought that since I am now focusing on Clickbank products, I would do a short little analysis here for you for the month of May. Since May 1st, I have had a total of:
261 hops
4 sales
Total: $129.46
Not bad for my first month of focusing on Clickbank. I have heard from several people that about one in every hundred buys something. So far, that seems to be pretty true in reference to these hops.
Now I have something definite to focus on…more hops. According to the 1/100 theory, I need to have 100 hops per day to make a sale per day. I think that’s something that I can do fairly quickly, if I keep building sites and getting good traffic to them.
My long term goal is $100.00 per day from clickbank sales. To do this, I would need to make at least 5 sales per day at $20.00 per sale. Since most of the products I am focusing on sell for more than this, I think it’s a reasonable long term goal. That’s approx. 500 hops per day.
In other news, I decided since we’re at the end of May, I would do a little anaylsis of the money that I have been able to make online this year. Here are the totals:
Today.com: $52.30
Clickbank: $129.46
Demand Studios/eHow $421.48
Adgitize $22.71
Suite101 $87.00
Link Adage $6.00
Associated Content $9.00
Bukisa $15.00
Helium $25.79
Adsense $102.48
Other Affiliate Sales $267.36
Total: $1147.46
That’s a nice little $229.49 per month in passive income, that will only continue to grow!
The best thing about these earnings is that much of it is passive income! How is everyone else doing this year? Have you noticed any trends?

Why do people call this stuff PASSIVE income? It looks like you had to work your butt off to set all that stuff up, get the content rolling and keep track of it all. I’m serious–would love to know how much sweat equity is going on here.
Also, do you find your SEO tactics from 6 months to a year ago still work today? What’s changed in your opinion? I find my old tricks have needed an upgrade about every half year-ish.

Hmm…I call it passive because once it’s set up and done properly, you don’t have to do anything else to it. I have several blogs that make decent money through adsene…I have not done anything else to these blogs except to use the Old Post Promoter Plug in that shuffles my posts around on a regular basis.
It’s nice to make a site and still have it bringing in money a couple of years later! However, it is a lot of work in the beginning and there’s a lot more that goes into it than people realize.
As far as SEO, I think the only thing that changes in my method is that as I learn more about it, my methods tend to change a little. It’s an ongoing process.

Hi, I have 571 hops and no clickbank sales. What am I doing wrong. I only have my clickbank ads on ehow articles. Is ehow not the right fit for clickbank ads?

Hmm…it’s hard to say. Are those hops on one product only? If that’s the case, the I would try and find another product within your niche. If they are spread out over many products, and you only have them placed on ehow, then you might want try posting a few articles to ezinearticles instead of ehow and see what happens! I know it’s frustrating! Good luck!
