This was down 30% from my September earnings of $1467.
My websites are getting fewer impressions and fewer clicks. Hopefully the downward slide will reverse itself during the upcoming holiday season.

Certain statistics are listed below. I decided to start showing my Amazon affiliate stats also.

    Great work Tony! Thanks for sharing this spreadsheet with us and the breakdown of hosts etc. I earned $637 last month which is down year-over-year about $300. I need to get on these thin sites. I continue to focus my efforts on drop-shipping ventures that prove more stable at the moment. Once I’m done I’ll concentrate on EPN and Amazon.

    Your Amazon stats are pretty good. What plugins, if any, are you using to generate that? I have my own custom code written and it does generate the occasional sale but nothing like you are seeing.

    Do you keep track of your search engine rankings? Do you think that maybe the drop in impressions has come from lower traffic due to Google updates?

    I’ve just heard a lot lately about Google Panda updates attempting to lower rankings of “thin” sites and I’m wondering if you’ve felt the effects.

    Thanks for the updates!

    Hi Mike. My Amazon sites look very similar to my OneLungThin method EPN thin sites. I use phpZon Pro for Wordpress to generate the links/listings. As an example, here is one of my Amazon thin sites: http://my-halloween-stuff.info

    Hi JP. No, I don’t bother tracking my search engine rankings. Yes, I definitely think the drop in traffic is the result of G Panda and lower rankings.

    Hi Tony, thx for sharing your stats. I’ve also had a huge drop in traffic from G since Aug across all my sites (thick and thin). Traffic has picked up this month but is mostly from Yahoo and Bing. May be time to adopt a new model…

    We’re all anxious! How’d you do last month?

    Mike, you beat me to it…watch for a new post later today.
