Adgitize: Let's see what's going on now!

UPDATED Weekly - I will write a summary of the previous week in Adgitize each Tuesday (after the Sunday-Earnings are published)

Since 21st November i could achieve the necessary 80 cents (for 30 day months, 78 cents for 31 day months) with points between 450 - 470, on 26st November i achieved 97 CENTS for 470 points (Thanksgiving-Holidays in USA, lower overall points) and it's getting better each day, see at the end of the post!

With 74 ads to be renewed in the NEXT 5 DAYS (until 2nd December) we could see a drop in advertisers by 1st or 2nd December to less than 150 from actually 177 advertiser.

This said it means, you really can get profitable again as ACTIVE PUBLISHER (with 400+ points and 78 cents/daily!) by buying an ad for 24$ in Adgitize and you can boost your traffic by 70 - 100 visitors daily.

I will publish this and the next month statistics about the amount of advertisers in Adgitize, so that we can see how many renewed their ads and how many left Adgitize as advertiser after their price hike.

If you like to participate, you could also share your earnings per day and for which amount of points you got this earnings. I will share them now daily in this blog post!

Highest number of Advertiser on 31st October - 216

In this number are around 20 persons who bought a 2nd or 3rd ad for 14$ (instead of renewing their old ad for 24$).

This means that it will be most likely to see in the next two weeks a decrease of advertisers back to around 200 (like the number has been on 29th of October!).

On 2nd November the advertisers decreased already to 213 (-3).
On 3rd November the advertisers increased to 214 (+1, but still - 2 in comparison to 31st October). That means there has been at least one member who paid the new ad price!
On 4th November the advertisers decreased to 210 (-4 towards yesterday and -6 towards End of October).
On average each day 7 advertisers should renew their ad (210/30 days = 7 ads expire each day)
On 5th November the advertisers increased to 213 (+3, but still - 3 in comparison to 31st October).
On 6th November the advertisers decreased to 212 (-1, but still - 4 in comparison to 31st October).
Ken Brown commented yesterday on this post and wrote that since 5th November 24 members renewed/bought ads with the new price (if you calculate this for 30 days, we would have 150 advertisers until end of November).
On 7th November the advertisers decreased to 207 (-5 from yesterday and -9 in comparison to 31st October).
On 8th November the advertisers decreased to 201 (-6 from yesterday and -15 in comparison to 31st October)

On 19th November the advertisers increased to 184 (+1 from yesterday and -32 in comparison to 31st October)
On 20th November the advertisers decreased to 182 (-2 from yesterday and -34 in comparison to 31st October) (after the new day -21th- began the advertiser dropped to 176, let's see how many renew and how this affects the earnings over the weekend)
On 21st November the advertisers decreased to 180 (-2 from yesterday and -36 in comparison to 31st October)
On 22nd November the advertisers increased to 181 (+1 from yesterday and -35 in comparison to 31st October)
On 23rd November the advertisers increased to 183 (+2 from yesterday and -33 in comparison to 31st October)

On 25th November the advertisers decreased to 179 (-2 from yesterday and -37 in comparison to 31st October)
On 26th November the advertisers decreased to 177 (-2 from yesterday and -39 in comparison to 31st October)
On 27th November the advertisers decreased to 175 (-2 from yesterday and -41 in comparison to 31st October)

On 29th November the advertisers decreased to 174 (-2 from yesterday and -42 in comparison to 31st October)
On 30th November the advertisers decreased to 171 (-3 from yesterday and -45 in comparison to 31st October)
After 12 hours we have on 1st December only 158 advertisers left (at the start of 1st December it have been just 156 advertisers)! --> More money left for the members who gain 300/400+ points, even when the earnings will be slightly lower (around 80 cents)

25th November - 470 points - earnings: 0.80 $ (18.48 $ - 1.52 $ less) still could score 80 cents, even with just 179 advertisers and 1.700 more overall points in the system!

  2. Hello Mariuca,

    that was tricky from Mr. Ken Brown to announce higher earnings with higher ad prices :)

    We only get these higher earnings if everyone renews their ads for 24$ (or for the shorter periods - 12$ - 1 week, 18$ - 2 weeks). It was based on 180 advertiser on 28th of September.

    This means that we won't earn 1$ until the end of November (for 430 points and above).

    That's why it was important to buy a last minute ad, otherwise you would definitely loose money this month (if the ad expires in the first two weeks of November).
    Even with 500 points i couldn't reach the necessary 80 cents on 1st November (a Sunday with low overall points).

  3. hi there! thanks for leave a comment on my blog. i checked out your survey, and that seems like a cool idea to have everyone tell you how much they get everyday to see if they will earn enough to pay for the ad. my only problem is that im just a publisher, not an advertiser. so i think my entry will kind of throw it off balance. but, i will make sure to come by at the end of the month to see the results! i am very interested in becoming an advertiser. but i dont have much money right now and i dont know if i would make enough to even cover the ad, and make a profit. how much profit do you usually make each month?

  4. You realize that renewing ads at the end of October added 50 extra points a day to each of the advertisers that engaged in that activity. So, this will be an interesting month in November, but will not be indicative of a normal month.

    The extra points and the high number of renewals at the end of October at the lower price will actually drive earnings lower in the early days of November.

    For information purposes only, we have had 24 advertisers that are paying the new price since the first of November. That's an average of 5 advertisers per day. That would extend to 150 advertisers for the month if it keeps up at that rate.

  5. Hello Ms. Marie!

    It doesn't matter if you are just a publisher or an advertiser because the earnings of everyone should increase as long as you get more than 200 points. But i guess this will just happen in the last week of November as not many members renew their ad for the new price of 24$.

    Like you can see at the moment i would make a loss if i would have paid 24$ in the beginning of the month. Even when i score until 6th November 500+ points because of my second ad.
    I will see how much i earn when my first ad expires tomorrow. I think it will be less than 70 cents (estimated earnings have been up to 1$ for 430 points when more members renew/buy an ad for 24$).

    My profit depends on referrals who buy an ad or renew their ad, then i get know 9$ (for first time advertisers) or 1$ for referrals who renew their ad monthly.
    My usual earnings have been around 19 - 21$, after deducting the 14$ it would be a profit of 5 to 7$ + 1.800 - 2.500 visitors :)

  6. Yeah I saw Ken's comment on the new earnings, they will come into play I guess next month then eh? I am still contemplating on renewing my ad for 24 bucks sigh...if I can make what I'm currently making with the 24 bucks, then I surely will renew my ad. I can't score 500 points though..highest is still 400+! :)

    PS. Btw, I haven't done any PP from linkfrom blog yet... :)

  7. @Ken Brown:

    Hello Ken,

    it's a honor to see the founder of Adgitize commenting on my blog!

    Yes, i'm aware of the point increase for everyone who purchased additional ads at the end of October.

    For my earnings it shouldn't play the big $$ gain, i guess it's around 5 to 8 cents more until 6th November.
    But for members who had previous scored between 260 and 290 or 360 and 390 points, they will see an bigger increase in cents for the second ad.

    I believe advertisers will get more clicks from the time on when the previous ads (of the members who bought additional Last Minute ads) will expire in the coming days.
    This will add again value to the higher ad price and later on to the higher earnings.

    Unfortunately i can't see for my statistics who renewed their ad to the new prices, i could just guess because some will change their ad to their previous blogs (which makes the ad invisible for some hours in your advertiser number) :)

    Thanks for telling the actual number of new advertisers since November (24)!

    If this number (150 by end of November) could be achieved, everyone could live with it and i believe that members who score more than 400 points daily can manage to achieve 24$ (like before with the 14$)!

  8. @Mariuca:

    Ken Brown commented just now before you commented, i believe now we can achieve much higher earnings from mid-November on, even when we just score 400+ points.

    500 points is just because of the 2nd ad (until 6th November) afterward it will be again in the range of 440 - 470 points.

    Am i right that i earn just 5 - 8 cents more than you at the moment?

    Important is to score high on the weekends when the overall points drop. There is the most money to make :)

    LinkfromBlog: You mean you didn't get any work from them yet or are the prices low or or or? :)

  9. LOL I'm a little confused with LFB.. not sure what type of reviews to choose, have u done work for them? Plus the $50 payout is a little daunting, they should reduce it to 20 bucks or so.. :)

    Oh ok I will wait for mid Nov to see the difference then. I'm still earning about 66 cents a day, more or less. $$$

  10. Looks like I won't be earning $24 for this month. I've had two ads running in Adgitize, one in October (which expires today) and one for this month of November (which I bought Oct. 31 not just to save $10 but also to have an EXACT 30-day running period). So far, I've earned more than 400 points everyday with a $.10-$.15 up on my earnings. Let's see if it'll go any higher by mid November or at least before my ad expires and maybe I could advertise for December. If not, then I'll probably go back advertising on January. I won't leave Adgitize! :D

  11. @Mara:

    The more advertiser who will stop advertiser will earn 100 points less. If you earn 100 points less coming from 400 points than your earnings will drop daily up to 0.20 $, if you could achieve less than 390 points with advertisement then your earnings will drop much more.

    This drop will be good for the members who advertiser as they get a bigger amount of money, even when less money from ads are in the system.

    Like you can see in my statistic with a high-traffic blog, i achieve for the first week of November at no time the necessary 0.80 $ daily (perhaps on Saturday/Sunday as there are the overall points at the lowest point), even when i got 500 points.

    My first ad expired on 6th November, so i get now my usual points of 440 - 470. From the 7th on my earnings should drop a few cents and stay below 70 cents until the second half of November.

  12. Hi Cornyman- I just earned over $.80 the past two days with only 400 points. May be due to lower point in the system over the holidays, but I'll take it. I have managed to get 420 points some days, but I have to really work at EC clicking which takes a lot of time.

    ReplyDelete
  13. @Sharkbytes:

    Great to hear, that members with less than 450 points earn now also more than 80 cents.

    In case most of the 74 advertisers (which ads are due until 2nd December) would renew their ad for 24 $ we will see similar earnings.

    In case we won't loose more than 25 advertisers from now on, the earnings could be stable enough to attract again new advertisers in the system in December.

    it really needs a lot of time to reach 420 (or even my 470) points by clicking EC, like you see i have four blogs with 300 drops... takes up to 7 hours sometimes :)
    But Adsense likes it, Alexa likes it and Adgitize likes it. They give me a better return for this work.

  14. Oh no you too have to drop like a mad panda Martin...1200 drops ha ha! I don think I can do my 900 drops tonight...so just dropping on important blogs LOL!
