Later when I found out Chitika which pays per click and not per sale everything changed. Chitika outperforms affiliate programs by at least 200%. And yes, I have more sites but some are not even monetized or are very young so 95% of my income is just from 2 sites. Jim,

Your results are great and inspiring, and I like your blog. I contacted you earlier today via email and appreciate your quick response. I had a couple more questions. First, you don't seem to promote many affiliate products on your sites but many of the 'gurus' say you can make more with affiliate programs than adsense. Have you tried affiliate programs or do you plan on trying any, like commission junction? Also, do you have just the 2 sites earning you that much income or are there more? Thanks again, Jim Wow Tomaz. Your results are great and inspiring, and I like your blog. I contacted you earlier today via email and appreciate your quick response. I had a couple more questions.

Glad to know that you are doing well with chitika too! I am on my journey to building my websites as well and will look at adsense, chitika, amazon, cj and affiliate products as my monetization. Hopefully I can get as close as a result as yours sooooon! Come 2008!!! Your income is quite evenly spread out and not overly dependent on adsense alone. Glad to know that you are doing well with chitika too!

I see that Google Adsense team is constantly tweaking and improving this program so they see the potential. What I suspect that we'll see in the future are more video based ads - like typical commercials you see on TV. And I'm sure they'll figure something new again... And balance - roughly: - 35% adsense - 35% chitika - 20% clickbank (selling my products) - 10% Amazon, CJ, Sitesell affiliate program Offline? Not much right now, but I am a professional tennis coach so I am looking to do some mental training with advanced players. Jerrick,

What I suspect that we’ll see in the future are more video based ads – like typical commercials you see on TV.

And I’m sure they’ll figure something new again…

And balance – roughly:

- 35% adsense
- 35% chitika
- 20% clickbank (selling my products)
- 10% Amazon, CJ, Sitesell affiliate program

Offline?

Not much right now, but I am a professional tennis coach so I am looking to do some mental training with advanced players.

You mentioned $77,470 and 50% is around adsense earnings. What's your view of adsense in the next 5 3-5 years and even 7-8 years as income generator? By the way, what about the balance? How much is actually chitika, amazon, clickbank etc? U are doing REAL good. I was wondering what kind of offline biz u are thinking? You are such a innovative entreprenuer. I am your fan! Wow Tomaz,
