Hey Shouter,
Welcome to the first blog income & traffic report of 2016. This is a part of ShoutMeLoud transparent culture & if you wish to know why I share such exclusive details, you should read this to understand our culture.
It’s been a while that I have published our transparency report & it’s only because I was busy learning more than making money. In the past two months, I have traveled a lot & in the quest to unlearn & learn again.
Attended Affiliate marketing summit West 2016:
Last month I went for my first U.S.A. trip to attend Affiliate marketing summit in Las Vegas.
I also had a chance to meet & spend quality times with many pro-bloggers such as Syed Balkhi, Zac Johnson to name a few. Along with that, I met many of my favorite companies that I have been working & over-all going to Affiliate marketing summit west 2016 was a great experience.
Later on, I also went to Mountain view to meet folks over at Google & Coursera. (Check out Google HQ album on Facebook here). Overall, those 20 days were full of lot of learning & new experience. You can browse many of the pics on my Instagram account.
Due to travel schedule, you might have noticed slow posting here at ShoutMeLoud, but as I made it clear last year, you will be seeing only quality posting over quantity here at SML.
How Not to Write Meaningless Blog Posts For The Success of your Blog
My post on Affiliate Summit West 2016 is pending which I will be publishing soon & I also got to know about many new companies, online tools which you will be hearing from me in the coming days. For now, let’s look at how posting less affected ShoutMeLoud traffic.

For the newcomers, ShoutMeLoud is more than just a blog. We have a dedicated videos section, hot WordPress discount section to start with & a forum for bloggers. If you are a Millenials who are born in the mobile first world, you can always download our iOS app or Android app to stay tuned with the latest stuff from ShoutMeLoud.

If I compare this report to the last known September 2015 report, I see a huge increase in sessions & page views. Even our bounce rate has dropped by 4% which is a considerable number. We are about to hit 1.5 million page views a month which is our all-time best.
ShoutMeLoud Forum: January traffic & top chart
ShoutMeLoud bloggers forum is another great place for you & other entrepreneurs to hang out & talk about blogging, entrepreneurship & topics that interest them.

Android app traffic: January 2016
In 2016, one of my goals is to focus a lot on gaining mobile subscribers & one thing which I’m going to do something new is; making our app more interactive & engaging. I have made a few UX changes in the past few months & by the 3rd quarter of 2016, you can expect the biggest update for our app.
Regarding traffic, ShoutMeLoud Android app traffic is increasing every month & here is the mobile app traffic report for January 2016.
Overall January 2016 was a great month for ShoutMeLoud concerning traffic & I’m pretty excited to touch 1.5 million page-views in coming months.
February is going to be the most exciting month for ShoutMeLoud, as you will see a lot of content & I’m also updating ShoutMeLoud Affiliate marketing ebook. Existing buyers (Even if you buy today) will get free access to the updated version of our ebook.

nice harsh but why you not use both monetization method adsence and affiliate together ?

I am sorry but you have mentioned Affiliate marketing Income: $15350.17.
Can you share some of the details of this affiliate marketing income, Harsh?
Harsh congratulation for great success…Your achievement proud for other blogger. All the best for your future Success & thanks……….
How come Google Adsense just make $500 with million traffic!!
Adsense are not primary income of Shoutmeloud. the website not apply adsense in whole website so income are less.
Hy,
Congratulations..
seem’s to it like your adsense cpm is too low if you generate 1.5mil visitors per month you can make $10000 to $15000. but cuz of your 75% visitors are from india so that your earnings from adsense is too low…
@Hssnfire
I don’t use AdSense much. My main monetization technique is Affiliate marketing.
congrats bro ! I know behind this all is only hard work you are inspiration for all bloggers.
Ty Muhammad.
Congrats Harsh on a kickass month. Wow!

Best of luck for the rest of 2016!
