September was a great month on WPLift – traffic continues to rise, in fact we were only 4k visits off the best month ever which was in february of this year. One of my posts was on front page of Hacker News which explains the spike you can see at the start of the month.

- Display Advertising: $427.5
- Affiliate Income: $3042.95
- Total Income: $3470.45 (-533.49)
Conclusion
As you can see from the above, all traffic metrics are green which is great – income is down a bit from last month but I had an unusually good month with one affiliate program last month so that explains that. Im really pleased with the traffic levels – search traffic is constantly rising so I hope that it continues this month and we could set a new record.
