July Monthly Income Report and Review

Starting today I am going to try something new this month. Each month I am going to do a Monthly Income Report with a blog review to share with you all what is going on. I will go over a little bit of everything that is going on with the blog and me in general. 

There are some big plans for the future and I hope that by doing this I will be able to see the changes and growth from a different perspective and it will keep me motivated. 

So this month we will talk about financials for this blog. I originally set out to blog for fun but also to set up a side hustle that eventually would be a platform for my Nutrition program I want to launch once I finish my Masters. But I will go more into detail a little later. 

We will also talk about some of the articles I published, some that I have read from other bloggers and think you will like to see as well as our lovely Workout of the Week posts. 

I will also talk about what Podcasts, books and movies etc., which I have been listening to, reading and watching this month. 

Monthly Review July Blog Articles:

In July I wrote and published 4 Workout of the Week posts as well as one about detoxification and another on CrossFit shoes for women. I also finally wrote my Mid-Year goal setting review. Below are the articles so check them out if you haven't!

Some of the major changes coming to my blog is thanks to Create and Go! I have been finally implementing some of the things I learned in their Making Money Blogging For Beginners course. I am also taking their Pinterest Traffic Avalanche course.

Monthly Income Review And Blog Statistics:

Back in February I signed up for Google Adsense, however I hadn't made a lot of money off of it mainly because I haven't been driving traffic to my site. This month I focused more on traffic and I made more money than I had in all the years before combined.

Now Google Adsense doesn't pay out until you reach $100 so I haven't actually seen it yet, but it makes me feel good to finally see this. Below is a screenshot of my Google Adsense Estimated Earning Report for the month of July. You can see I made $16.47!!

I have not made any money off of my affiliates yet, but I also plain on working more on that as well, it all just takes time. In the meantime, I have been working on traffic and I hit a few milestones.

In July I had record breaking views and visitors. And the goal is to increase this again next month. Below are some of the stats from my blog and social media.

  • Instagram followers      1154
  • Facebook followers       239
  • Pinterest                        1312
  • Subscribers                    22
  • Page views                     2354

 BOOKS

So I was planning on sharing my books that I have read, but the list is very extensive and to be honest probably not things that you all would be interested in. I read a lot of romance books. Started reading them in High School when I would sneak my mother’s Harlequin Romance novels. I use Amazon Kindle Unlimited to read almost all of my books. Sometimes I will pay for certain authors and books in a series that I am reading. 

I think moving forward I will share with you if I read a health/fitness related book or something similar. With the exception of the articles and textbooks that I read for school I didn’t do much reading of regular books in this field in July. 

MOVIES

I love watching movies and we really enjoy taking our son to the movie theatre. But I also love watching documentaries. It drives my husband crazy! 

In July we went to go see Lion King of course!! 

We also took Shamar to see Spider Man: Far From Home. 

He is a huge Spider Man fan and loves the new Lion King TV show. 

I finally watched Forever My Girl on Amazon Prime. I have read this book way before I even knew they were making a book. 

Documentaries:

What’s happened in July with Me and this blog??

July finally felt like I was getting into more of a rhythm here in Germany. I still haven’t been able to workout like I would like due to some medical issues, but I am hoping in August that will change. 

However, I got some of my At Home workout equipment unpacked. It is not exactly organized yet, but I have access to my Kettlebell and Dumbbells which makes me happy. I hope to have everything organized by the end of August. 

We have done some travelling in July and I look forward to more as we get settled. Going to the Alps was by far one of my favorites. It was gorgeous and I wish the weather was better but it was still an amazing experience and we plan on going back for longer than a weekend. 

A couple of things are going on with the blog. 

I am revamping the 28 Day Kick-start program. In the meantime it will not be available for purchase. My goal is to have it re-launched at the end of the month. 

I have also teamed up to be an affiliate for a few more programs and you will see some more content being published based on them. I hope you all enjoy it!! 

Each month I hope to show you how much money I made on each review. If I make any!! Fingers Crossed and appreciate the support!!

Wrap it up

So that is what is going on here! I hope you all enjoyed and learned from the content put out this month! What was your favorite things that you saw from me?

What would you like to see more of? 

I need your feedback!!

Until next time peeps!!
