Analyzing how 63 bloggers earned over $780,000 in October

[lewiswebdev]

As a continuation of my previous posts, I just finished up the analysis of 63 blogger income reports from October and took a deeper look at their revenue sources.

A change for this month was breaking out the revenue sources a little further by adding the Affiliate Network category (i.e ShareASale).

What I ended up doing is taking the 195+ revenue sources bloggers reported in October and broke them down into (now) eight categories:

Affiliates: $244,748.24
Products and Services: $152,881.06
Sponsorships: $96,000.38
Advertising Network: $92,267.50
Affiliate Network: $9,078.44
Consulting: $6,745.00
Freelance: $1,894.96
Unclassified: $17,7252.12

Here are the Top 5 Affiliate Programs and Top 5 Advertising Networks these bloggers used in September:

AdThrive — $57,794.40 (Up almost $47,000 compared to last month)
Mediavine — $8,943.61 (Up $6,000 compared to last month)

Also anyone have any experience with the Advertising Network AdThrive? They saw a reported revenue increase of almost $47,000 compared to last month.

NOTE: For some reason I'm unable to post a link to the full blog post and the affiliate breakdown this month. I was able to last month. Not sure the best way to share them for this month.

Actually they aren't my blogs, rather it's data compiled from income reports other bloggers post publicly on their blogs.

Thanks for sharing matey.
But I have no idea how blogger still works these days.

Did you mean blogger or blogger.com?
Blogger.com came in my mind initially.

Sorry. I meant "bloggers" as in those who write / run blogs.
