Summer is generally a slow time for me on both my mainstream and adult sites.  I think that combined with the weak global economy is having a major impact on sales.  Unfortunately there is little I can do about it.

The first two weeks of July I actually pumped out about a dozen galleries, trying out a new sponsor and hitting up totemcash.  This past week I’ve been slacking off again.  I’ve been putting in 12-13 hour days including time at the gym, so I’m beat by the time I get home.  Still, I shouldn’t make excuses.  So tonight I’m here plugging away.  I’m actually right in the middle of uploading a new gallery for totemcash.

It takes very little time to build a gallery now.  Only about 10 minutes.  I simply make a few color changes to an old gallery and plug in the new pics.  Here’s my latest submit:

Laetitia Double Room

Here is a gallery that recently got listed at the hun:

Anna Teen

I’m trying out a new sponsor that is rated pretty highly: DreamCash

Here’s a screenshot of this month’s stats:

I’ve submitted four galleries from July 3rd to July 10th.  The gallery I listed above finally got posted to the hun on July 19th.

Approximately 68,000 Hits and 1032 clicks equals CTR: 1.5%

This is much lower than my totemcash galleries.  Looking back to this post: http://affiliatesurl.com/2010/03/22/great-results-with-new-galleries/

I was getting 4.8% on the hun.

So it seems teen niche is a tough sell on the hun.

I made a costly mistake this past month.  I didn’t update my new address with any of my sponsors, so several checks got returned and I’m in the process of getting the sponsors to reissue the checks to me.  Some of them want to charge $20 for each check for stop payment, others have not responded.  I’m gonna follow up again this week and will let you know.  This couldn’t happen at a worse time as income is dropping right now.

Anyway, I hope all of you are doing well, even if sales are down.  The summer months have always been slow.  So take this time to analyze the last 6 months and optimize your efforts for the next six months.  I fully predict things will pick up substantially in September.

Thanks again to Bill and Major for making great posts to this blog!
