$201 in 11 days.
Month to date so far I’ve made just over $200 from epn and adsense. My epc for epn is down to $.05, though, bummer. It was as high as $.16.
I think I’m going to start taking my own advice and build more mage sites with CPA and CJ links, and see what happens.
The most recent batch of sites I created was about 9 days ago. They are now starting to get clicks. I love it when my baby sites start to hatch!
Here’s a couple cute things…
I was just checking my stats for one of those brand new baby sites. Someone came to my site by searching for, “tui98e3 is76dt89m2.” (I changed it so you can’t find my sites.) But it’s essentially the keyword they typed into Google. My site is number one for that keyword. Know why? Because there were only 2 other results! LOL no quotes, or anything. Oh, and guess what the other two results were? You got it, ebay!
Oh, and someone filled out the contact form on one of my ebay sites asking if I have such and such a product for sale. They think I’m a real store! That’s how good these sites look! Hilarious! Hmmm, let me go to the back and see if we have that part. LOL
Anyway, I haven’t built any new Mage sites in several days because I’ve been having so much fun blogging here and answering questions. 6 months from now, I will wish I had spent every spare second Maging! Just build, build, build!

That’s great Amy, congrats! Just curious how many sites you have up so far. Also do you put adsense and epn ads on every site you do, or do you mix and match. Some with only one and some with both?

Most of my sites are ebay/amazon only. If I build a site with ebay, it also has amazon. Fewer of my sites have just adsense. Fewer still have both ebay and adsense. A handful of my sites are monetized with other networks, mostly CPA. Well, I guess they are all CPA. One with zip submit, one with a markethealth product. (Although I may remove that.) And a couple others. It’s getting hard to remember! Oh, I have some with CJ advertisers. These are not even with the CJ plugin that Greg has since created. So far, all my money is from ebay, adsense, and a little amazon. Those other few sites are barely getting traffic still. I have about 70 sites up now.

Thanks for the reply Amy!
A couple more thing are you using CPMage to automatically create sites on subdomains or are you individually creating the sites by uploading the WPMage zip package?
Also, on your ebay sites do you find using keyword mage with the recommended 2 word combo works the best or are you using a different number of words or possibly a list from Word Wizard.

I’ve done both methods of creating sites. CPMage is the fastest, though. Like a 5-10 minute difference, no big deal.
If I’m building a site where I want to monetize with ebay, I use keyword mage. I use the recommended settings. Honestly, I don’t even understand how the settings work (mostly) so I’m glad it’s obvious what’s recommended.
I use Word Wizard for adsense sites and other monetization methods. Although, Word Wizard is also great for products, too.
Sometimes, I use both. If keyword mage doesn’t pull many results, I’ll also use the Wizard, and copy/paste both lists.
