I’m working on the December blog income report right now and figure, since it’s a brand new year, I should post a 2007 recap. Fortunately for me I didn’t have to look through my archives to get that information.
It seems a blog call 365 To Freedom has created a site call John Chow Graphs that documents my monthly income reports into nice colorful pie charts. That saves me a lot of work.
Join me now for a look back at an amazing year in making money online. It’s interesting to see how the revenue mix has changed over the course of the year.

One of the most common complaint (or excuse) I hear from potential new bloggers is they don’t know how to install WordPress. Terms like FTP and CPanel are like a foreign language and setting up a database might as well be setting up the space shuttle for a launch. Because of the technology barrier, many would-be bloggers never start their blogs...

Awesome set of graphs and progress. Will we see a six figure JC month during 2008?
honestly!! teach me master!!!
teach me!
He is teaching you, read his blog and download his free ebook.
well something more personalized, would be better!
As busy as John probably is, I’m sure personal coaching from him would be quite expensive.
Well i;m sure that are at least 10 000 persons that want personalized training.I think we have to be happy with what we have
Honestly, just read his ebook. I’m sure you can figure it out from there.
Well, I think we can see 6 fig income if John can find a really good affiliate that pays high. I believe this blog can make more than it already did. I found this blog to be very interesting. keep up the good work John!
Holy s#@%! That’s a lot of money!
Is a lot of money for John Chow though? That’s the real question.

Those are some great charts that they put together. I’m looking forward to seeing your December earnings!
How about a graph that summarizes the entire year in one pie chart?
From what John said, I kind of thought that’s what we were going to see!
It’s kind of fascinating to just scroll up and down to watch the changing colors.
I’ll look at it all in a bit more detail at some point, I may even print it out to see what I can learn.
Waiting for December’s results,

Read his posts, don’t print out the graphs.
The graphs won’t help, but his posts will help you to make more money.
i prefer the month to month breakdown.
Yeah I’ve been to that site before – awesome thinking behind it. I wonder if they’re making much from the Adsense they have there, and the affiliate programs that they’re promoting (which you use).
Can’t wait to see December’s income.
Maybe you should subscribe to the feed to find out
I started the case study with John Chow Graphs here, and I’ll be posting a follow up in a week or so with results.
Chalk one up for linkbait
Glad you like them, John!
You have a great idea!
Something easily done that works
Indeed man – pretty crazy!
I guess JohnChow’s December earning is over $35,000
He might be earning more than that.
I doubt that we will see an increase of almost $10k as far as this month’s income is concerned, that would be more than impressive, I am expecting something in the $30k range as far as his income for December is concerned.

It surely must be more than that. ‘Tis the season of gift shopping.:)
True, but it’s also the season when people are busy with organizing their holidays and, as such, traffic tends to drop as far as most websites are concerned.
Alan Johnson
I’ve just taken a look at his blog income report for this month and, indeed, traffic has dropped a little, which is perfectly natural this time of year. He has managed to have similar earnings (about $25k) by earning over $100 for every 1k impressions this month.
Alan Johnson
Great job and you really work for it.
Very nice graphical representation of your income. I’m going to work on something similar for my site only in bar graph form so people can track the progress of my experiment.
Wish my income was half of that lol!
and i wish mine was half of that! hehe
I’m sure most people will be happy with 10% of that
Awesome John.
Is the TTZ media income….from clicks on YOUR site or is that an aggregate of your share of everyone’s cut?
Curious minds want to know.
That is what the blog made from TTZ Media. It is not the income of TTZ Media.
i love you chow, (monkey groupie right here)
Hehe, yes I would hope so!
Classic!.., icon in blogging industry -:)
wish you best of luck for the future, and very very HAPPY NEW YEAR to all,

Wow great graphs. Those revenues inspires me
It just goes to show what inspiration, know-how and enthusiasm will do for you. Of course being a little bit evil helps here and there – kudos to you John.
That is a lot of money. All i can say is well done, you have truly risen to the top and pwned like everyone.
Wow – just love how many “other” people are able to acheive their own success through John Chow. We have this one about graphs and we also have JohnCow.com and I’m sure a bunch of other sites that are not owned by John Chow – Very good!
It would be funny if Johncow.com is actually owned by John Chow
If he owns that then he will be earning a lot of money.
Great job with those graphs. Gotta get myself updated with the reading of your blog. Anyway seeing all this just proves my point. If you have a goal for your blog, it can surely be achieved. John Chow’s blog is all about making money right? And that is what he does. I am curious to check out December’s stats. They must surpass November. After all Christmas time it’s the Buyers Season in a world of Consumers!
Nice to see how private ad sales sky rocketed your income John.
Between July and August you had a huge jump in affiliate income to the tune of nearly $3,000. What did you do?
I put a focus on affiliate marketing starting in that month. I had a look at where the big income was going to come from and affiliate marketing was it.
John, great works! I believe your hard works are paid off handsomely.
I envy you!
Cool, you got rid of Adsense between August and Sept and you still made $2,500 more.
Rockin’ results….
I wish you a still better 08
Wow, $147565.58 in 11 months!
someone can use a calculator.
Don’t be sarcastic…
Actually it is a total of $155,265.53 for 11 months. Not a bad “part-time” business as John Chow is a massive domain king. I can’t wait to see what the final numbers for December are going to be. I’m estimating in the area of $18,000.
i love you jhon…
love your income…
That is one lump sum that you make in 11months.
thanks for sharing those details, John. it’s very generous of you. i am curious as to the software you used to make the graphs. was it MS Excel or something else?
hey that’s actually pretty cool to look at. and yea, the graphs really shows the ups and downs of your income sources.
Those are some pretty nifty graphs John. Seems like you keep organized
-Mike
Impressive. I especially like the part about making more monthly with the “buy me a beer” donation requests than most readers make with adsense.
Kool Charts John !!!
(the money making ones…)
I Like These Kinda Pies !!!!
The ultimate ego boost – someone else charting your income on their site!
Cool……
Very impressive…best of Luck for this year also…
Nice Earnings. Good Luck for 2008
Congrats John!
Wish you good luck and a very happy new year.
You are a true inspiration.
Nice stats
Did you steal my stats?
I’m really curious as to why your Kontera ads are always exactly $1,000.
Maybe they’re paying him constantly for talking about Kontera?
Is it probably some sort of advertising agreement between John and Kontera for $1k per month, it is not income from Kontera ads.
Alan Johnson
It’s very interesting to see the movement between the different income streams! You can definitely see when private ad placements and Review Me came in. And it’s clear how much Google Adsense brought in as a percentage.
What really interested me though is how stable Text-Link-Ads are for you. They’re a consistent money earner. Not the highest, but a solid consistent earner. It really helps to explain why Google hit them so hard this year.
I still don’t see why Google is penalizing text link ads. They are just being a bully
They consider that such links are not given as a result of the quality of the website which is being linked to. It’s just one of the things they can do as a result of being the most important player as far as search engines are concerned
Alan Johnson
You do earn a lot of money, good work. Well currently i have around 2000 visitor visit my blog and i wish that my blog readers will come to a 5000 visitor per month.
Wow!!…i’m really happy with that graph, it really boost up the morale of the fresh bloggers like me…thanks again i’ll really work hard in my blog for the forthcoming days…
JohnChowGraphs dot com gave me such a brilliant idea. This is going to be the linkbait of 2008!
wow! amazing! how’d you do that? I wish I could earn that much too….
Hmm………that is pretty muc impressive. Keep it up and goodluck
Nice information.
wow great.you are so blessed man!more blessings for this year!
Clean Bold Performance !… No words man Awesome -:)
very happy, because you really started from screatch, best of luck for your future.

Super impressive, I dream of one day having graphs like that.
Care for an audit?
I would say that’ an awsome year
Nice stats, nice steady increase, like to see what you’ll do in 2008.
Good job!
Sincerely,
Jamie Boyle
Doesn’t your Kontera earnings every fluctuate?
Whats up with even 1,000 every month.
WOW! That’s a great reward for some hard work.
Is anyone else out there making similar money from their blog?
I only wish i could take one of the graphs
When did JC’s blog started? I think this has to be attributed to his good puter skills….
wow so many figures
up to six figure $$
hopefully I can make half/quater/a pinch of that this year
