How the time fly’s when you are having fun! I’ve been meaning to do this for a couple of days now but enough putting it off here’s how I did in my first month with the Million Dollar Wiki.
In terms of traffic it’s been good, 92 visitors makes it my 3rd highest referrer. The great thing about this traffic is that it looks like everybody sticks around to read at least one post, or so the average visit of 5:16 would have you believe. During this time there has been quite a few days where there have been no referrers and other days where there have been lots. If I was guessing I’d say this is coinciding with yet another A-List blogger out there jumping on the band wagon and giving them some publicity. Anyway, as it stands each click has cost me $1.08. Expensive but there’s another 14 years and ll months to bring that down!
The money has been good also, I can’t over emphasise what a great program Text-Link-Ads are offering for webmasters at the moment. The $100 my Million Dollar Wiki page cost has already paid for itself entirely thanks to Text-Link-Ads, even if you’re not interested in buying (more on this later!) or selling links it’s worth signing up just to get on their referral program!
Overall I’ve got nothing but positive things to say about the Million Dollar Wiki. As it grows it will no doubt gain and pass page rank and it does refer visitors. When it comes to online marketing 1 of the 2 would keep me happy. I can’t imagine the traffic levels staying as they are but even so this is proving to be one great investment.

Hi,
This is one of the first blogs I’ve discovered on making money online – and I must say it really is informative! Have I struck gold on my first casual surf?
Thank you for the link to Linkads. I have to look to monetising my website (which, embarrassingly, is a new site about how I can go about making money online!)

I don’t think that anybody could describe the rubbish I write as striking gold but thanks anyway. Oh yeah, and good luck with your challenge!

Hey there, read your entire collection of current “main page” posts on your blog and was pretty impressed. You have written some very informative talk and tips, and I figured I’d ask you a question as well as give you a tip (I own the design page on MDW).
You seem very well versed in SEO and I was wandering if you had any tips to Million Dollar Wiki page owners about what they could do to boost up their chances of getting SE results?
And my tip to you is to join the forum and at least anounce your page on the recent updates section. You will get 20+ views, and maybe some good suggestions to help your ppage get on the Main Page.

Hi Matthew,
Thanks for stopping by, I’ll be sure to go and check out the forums.
I tend to do SEO a little bit differently to most, maybe my own top 10 tips might not be so bad an idea.
