Monthly Report — Opening address

In this menu, I would like to report the number of accesses, and explore what is necessary to monetize a site or explore how to monetize it. I did not think about it for 5 years, I’m just trying out (^^).

Anyway, I will start from the monthly income and expenditure report.

Income and Expenditure Report in Feb. 2022

carryover money	0 yen＿	details＿＿

total	2,399 yen▼	2,399 yen▼

—— I don’t get any affiliates yet, so it is the red of 2399 yen. To get a new domain, there needs a domain acquisition fee and an annual fee. Watching Web Hosting Service, the price of ” .com ” was the cheapest so that I chose it without hesitation. If not particular about it, it’s okay to use ” .com “.

SEO measure and CDN

The point of monetizing is SEO ( Search Engine Optimization ) function, once I experienced a dramatic increase the number of accesses when I had installed Cocoon in April 2020. Although I did not take any measures, Cocoon took SEO measures automatically. The number of accesses extended to 5,000. I was so glad that I installed Jetpack plugin ( older version ) the more. Then the number of accesses extended to 20,000 (^_^)/. This is maybe because Jetpack has a CDN (content delivery network) function that can introduce the excellent sites .

However, most of the accesses are come from search engines, so these are changed according to the number of posts.

I maybe call it ” bot symptom “.

No one reads it, it’s same as a diary on the internet.
It’s funny as it is (^^;.

Even if come from machines, I was glad to be read by somebody (^^♪, so I would do the next. I installed the plugins of ” Site Kit by Google ” and ” XML Sitemap Generator by Google “. I expected to increase the number of accesses more. . . Contrary to my expectation, the number of accesses decreased rather. However, the number of accesses of the search engine decreased, in the hand, the number of accesses by other IP addresses ( including normal persons ) increased.

—— Installing Cocoon is enough for SEO measures, however you will consider about site monetization, it may be better to install ” Site Kit by Google “.
