I wouldn't mind hearing more about how you have that all set up. I wouldn't mind having a static site making $30 per day! I would just leave it be and enjoy the extra cash! Nicks last blog post..Sunday Snapshots - 006

I’m in your hands sir, more than happy (would love to!) I just wouldn’t want people thinking I am here to sell, I respect you too much for that Derek.

Thanks for the additional information. If you’re ever interested in sharing more details, I’ll open the floor for a guest post as that would fit in nicely here.

I’ve had two sites running for about 16 months now and have spent (and still spend to a lesser degree) money on advertising and reviews along the way. Probably $350 – $450 in total to date.

More recently it’s been a case of keeping the sites ranking well in Google. I get around 500 uniques a day in total – not a huge amount but at $35 for each affliate referral, I only need two or three of those visitors to sign up and it starts to add up.

I could go on all day about how th thing works but wont hijack the thread!

For a site that is essentially static though, I think those are pretty good numbers. Even on the low end, that averages out to about $1000/month.

Not sure if you care to disclose but how much (if any) do you spend on advertising the site to pull in those numbers? Is that $35-100 in profit or revenue?
