Congratulations Andy!! 😀 that’s quite the milestone 🙂 . It’s always great to read up on your posts, keep them coming! 🙂
Thanks for the support, Anthony! 🙂 You keep them coming as well. You’ve slowed down on blogging but I see you’re just as active as ever on Twitter! 😉
Wow, 1 million views that’s a milestone. Congratulations
Mars,
Thanks so much! Hard to believe! 🙂
Wow that’s a huge of traffic, add at least single google adsense.
Yes, it is quite a bit of traffic. I have tried the “goodle adsense” thing but was only getting a mere 4-5 US dollars/month for ads by major companies in Oman and the region. I decided instead to offer ads to those interested after some marketing friend suggested it. The going rates I found (from another blogger) for ads on blogs with over 50,000 views seems to be 10 OR/day, 60/week or 220/month. As you can imagine, having just one ad for one week is more advantageous than having google adsense for a year! Then there’s the issue of not being able to review products (and restaurants I assume) unless it is “okayed” by google first. No thanks!
Well done Andy! That calls for a beer…or two!
Thanks, Maurizio! We’ll have to get together sometime at the end of April! 😉
Good hustle Andy!
Thanks, Sythe! Just a few months behind you, buddy! 😉
