Revenue Earned Now vs. Revenue Earned Back Then

[Shawn Gossman]

How would you rate the revenue earnings that you are making now versus how much you were making back when forums were more popular?

For those of you who profit from forums, have you noticed an increase or decrease in revenue as forums become less and less popular during trends and shifts towards social media, Reddit, and other channels that moved away from the traditional forum?

I'd love to hear everyone's thoughts on this!

A couple of years ago, I was earning $600 per month on average from my blogs from Adsense alone. The revenue has gone down by more than 60 percent.

Sorry to hear about it, Nomad, Adsense is a bust 🙁 My main services are SEO, not forum work, and my income has steadily increased in the past years.

Depends on whether it's a Blog or a Forum, I mean blogs get more overall than a gaming forum.. Life moves on, I say that Discord, Reddit and social media continue to be the future, easier for people compared to knowing how to join and use a forum.

I have not made much money, never expected it, but I can say it's 100% loss when you become inactive for months

My sites are generally hobby sites, I have never earned revenue. But I frequently hear that website revenue has drastically dropped in recent years
