Haha, yeah — maybe I should. I am using padsquad, which means my media.net ads don’t show-up on my mobile site. That’s probably a big reason. I just saw the ultimate bundles for the rest of the year. None appeal to me or my readers, that solves my problem. 🙂 I may post about it on social media but that’s it. I am just not a salesperson. It’s a fact I need to come to terms with. 🙂 And SERIOUSLY, check into padsquad. Their CPM has been great lately. I mulled over a switch to adthrive, but I really think Padsquad allows more customization and stuff. I’m stickin’. Email me if you have any questions!

That’s awesome! Thank you for being open with your readers. I hope someday I can start making an income as well.

Every time you post these, I think I’m going to look into Padsquad and I STILL haven’t done it! I’m really puzzled why you aren’t doing better with Media.net. I just started using them and earned about $2 a day from one small ad that I threw on my site in about 5 min. time. I wonder if you would email them and ask if they have any suggestions if you would be able to learn why it’s not working well for you.

And I wondered the same thing you did about the Ultimate Homemaking Bundle. I did sell some, but it hardly was worth all the time I put into it. I don’t know what I’ll do till another year. I do think though the fact that they have a TON of really big bloggers that promote them, really does make it hard for those of us that are smaller. Although I know some bloggers smaller than you or I that sold 50 or so, so it is doable!
