July 2024
It has been a hot minute that we haven't been sharing network stats. But the network has been popping right along, gaining new momentum and slowly growing. As such, it's time to give you the July lowdown.
Network Summary
All reporting is based on data from our advertising software. As such, that data may not match our other data sources, such as google- because the internet is weird, and scary, and wonderful all at the same time.

Total impressions for July saw 47,228
The july click through rate was 0.05%
Impressions were in line with June's number (48,073) while we saw an increase in the percentage of clicks from 0.02% in June. We had done a number of updates in July tot he ads, and it was good to see them getting responses.
Top 5 Sites for July
Site #5: boboratory.com
the website for author Bob Nelson saw some increased traffic, as he has been making noise about his next book release.
Site #4: theklute.com
July was the anniversay of his passing, and the increase in traffic was expected.
Site #3: Brick Cave Creators
Interstingly, this site is a place for the writers signed by Brick Cave to gather.
Site #2: SharonSkinner.com
This should surprise no one as Sharon is probably the most active site in the network on a month to month basis.
Site #1: ShamelessBookPromotion.com
We are excited to see the new launch of this site gain a following. designed to give indie authors tools to promote themselves, the traffic has been particularly refreshing.
Impression Performance Estimates
Based on the data collected for the previous month, below are the current estimates for impressions usage for the single Campaign plans in the banner network. These are only estimates, and do not encompass variable factors such as total ads in network, priority of ads showing in network, future trends in network traffic, site availability and more. Our Ad Subscription services provide the best pricing options and the benefit of unlimited impressions.
Based on the traffic data we have:
- 10,000 impressions would last ~90 days
- 50,000 impressions would last ~1.2 years
- 100,000 impressions would last ~2.5 years
- 250,000 impressions would last ~6.1 years
What's Next
Most importantly, there are a couple sites that we need to get back online in our mark back to 20+ sites. Some of that compression is due to consolidating some older sites into one portal, but this month is already looking good friom the early numbers we have seen. last month, only 3 of the sites in the network has 1,000 or more impressions, and that has already increased this month and we are hoping to double that number up.
