I’m stupefied by the number, I just crossed into the five figures category today… and sales are accelerating. Let’s bust out a graph, shall we?
(Edit: It belatedly occurs to me that I took that screenshot in the middle of a mouse hover. This is what I get for operating a computer after a night of karaoke. Ahh, well, the Japanese won’t kill you.)
The October 2007 figure is an extraordinarily conservative estimate. (I quoted $1,500 but I’ve already sold $1,250 and the month is only 2/3rds over, with a holiday and a version upgrade coming around the bend.)
Profits are somewhat less impressive, as I’ve shelled out ~$250 in one-time expenses to get the linkbait which I will launch this weekend ready. Check back tomorrow for details.
Got something in the works but I have been dying of a combination fever/cold/flu thing the last few days. Hopefully I’ll have something up around Wednesday. It will be regarding the linkbait I have been working on for a week now, and how you can get linkbait to work for you.
Firebug is an addictive little addon to Firefox which lets you inspect the CSS properties of essentially anything you can click on and modify them in real time. This lets you easily simulate what would happen if you actually changed the properties, except without needing a page refresh cycle. If you play around with it, it can help answer the big (and befuddling) questions like What Line In My 2,000 Line CSS or HTML File Makes This Box Go Here, which throw non-designer me for a loop.
