Rahul Banerjee’s Newsletter 💯 — Revue
Issue #1 — RealPythonProject September Recap
This will be my first newsletter and as they say — “first impression is your last impression”. Quite literally when it comes to newsletters so I will try to keep this interesting.
Last Month’s Blog Summary
Why share my earnings and stats? To be honest, I don’t know. I find it interesting reading about other bloggers’/freelancers’ stats and earnings. Maybe this motivates you or maybe you are just curious like me. Either way, I hope you find it interesting.
New Articles
I published the following article and honestly it tanked. In total it only got around 15 reads on Medium and around 10 reads on my WordPress Blog. Below is the article

WordPress Blog
I have two blogs
The second one is still in its early stages and doesn’t show any ads. The data below is taken from my first website.
Newsletter Subscribers: 27
Kofi Payments: 0 (When I created the account, I was being very optimistic and hoping someone would donate Lol)
The blog received 12,501 views from 11,462 visits. The data is taken from Ezoic so it’s usually under-reported. According to Google Analytics, the blog received around 13k views.
I earned 67.68 USD by displaying Ezoic Ads on the website. Previously I was spamming my blog with ads and earning around 150 USD — 200 USD per month but I decided to reduce the number of ads to improve the user’s experience in hopes that they end up reading the entire article and subscribing to the newsletter.
Medium
Email Subscribers: 22 ( +2 in September)
Referred Members: 13 (No Change in September)
I earned 74.87 USD in the month of September.
I am not sure what ‘views’ means in Medium, I give more importance to the ‘reads. I got around 2,770 reads last month. It
Dev.to and Hashnode
Neither of them earns me anything.
Summarizing the Summary
Total Views: 15982 views
Total Earnings: 142.55 USD ~ 196.02 CAD
