27 January - The Scores are in and some Stats to report on.

So another week in my life has slipped through my fingers, and another entry is added to the BuytheMap blog. Over the last couple of weeks it seems the domain name empire has been stalling as more names have been added to the network but the effect has not been an increase in revenue. However my first few keyword specific names still seem to be bringing the visitors, for instance if you type in short online IQ test in google, my site is there on the front page. So I am keeping my fingers crossed, and working hard to get mu other sites up there on the front pages. If sites pay for themselves they can stay, if not I'll let them go when they are due to be renewed. So lets quickly check on where we are so far.
Total number of domains registered 26. Total spent on registrations £166 (thats a total of £329 dollars) so an average of £12 for each domain. I have also racked up one domain sale as well for $25. Since the project began I have made on average about $10 a month. So that means I'm on course for £120 dollars a year, so I'm making a loss!!! Not good news, however I am still in my startup phase, and there are a lot of positives that I can take from this.
So what about last weeks revenue, well a total of 28 clicks, this seems quite low and in total revenue was $2.59. So an increase on last week and going in the right direction again, but still some of my keyword sites are not doing well enough. I am pretty sure they will start to come online, and I have written some good content, so I need to work on the SEO. Creating backlinks, posting articles, and getting the word out!! Thats its - until the next time ;)
