Hey, Shouter!
Here we are in the 3rd month of the year, and it is once again time for me to share our income, expense and traffic reports for the last month.
When I compile these reports, it helps me to clarify what is working well and what isn’t. Also, at the conclusion of these reports many Shouters like you offer suggestions of new things to try, and this serves to open up a new vertical for me. Most importantly, I believe transparency offered by reports such as these helps ShoutMeLoud readers to discover new things that they can work to make their blogs successful and reach their own goals.
ShoutMeLoud’s monthly income report is part of our transparency policy, and you can read this post to understand why I share this valuable information with you and others.
In many ways February was a month like any other, but one unique piece of work that I accomplished was ShoutUp Blogging Workshop#2. This was the last blogging workshop in Delhi for this season. The next workshop is in Bangalore on March 15th, 2015. You can read about the Bangalore workshop over here.

ShoutMeLoud February Traffic Report:
Android app traffic report:
I am thrilled to see the ShoutMeLoud Android app performing so well! Traffic is increasing every month, and I am rolling out an update this month which will allow you to comment directly from the app. This update will also include the app indexing that Google announced a few weeks back. This will be helpful to those of you who have installed the ShoutMeLoud Android app.
This month the total revenue is about $1,800 less than last month. This is reasonable and understandable as I invested roughly this amount to buy 2 Sennheiser wireless lapel microphones and lights to start shooting videos for ShoutUniversity. I believe the next two years will be big years for video and podcasts. So, as always, I want to invest ahead of the curve!
Speaking of podcasts, I will be launching the ShoutMeLoud podcast channel soon! For now, you can listen to our Podcast intro below:

Good to see your comment and regarding your query:
At this time I’m using a Custom designed skin on Thesis. Though I would not recommend you to buy Thesis. Rather grab theme from Genesis.
Good news is, I will be releasing this exact design as Genesis Skin soon! 🙂

Hey Sagar
That’s a great news and since your blog started getting traction, this is the time when you should work harder to increase the awareness and popularity of your blog.
Thanks for your wishes and I wish the same 🙂
You have mentioned Adsense earnings but Shoutmeloud doesn’t have any adsense.
@Sunny
This income report is from all the blogs in the network. Some of them are:
Wpfreesetup.com
ShoutMeTech.com
Cydiaguide.com
Wphostingdiscount.com
I don’t use AdSense here on ShoutMeLoud, but many other blogs are monetised with AdSense.
Whats the reason behind not using AdSense on shoutmeloud ?
