Niche Site Income Report — $3,200/Month After 14 Months (Gardening Tools)

Month 14 on my gardening tools niche site. Finally working.

Stats:

28,400 monthly pageviews

$3,200/month revenue (up from $1,800 at month 10)

847 articles published (180 drive 80% of traffic)

Revenue:

Amazon Associates: $1,890 (~4.5% commission)

Ezoic display: $890 (RPM ~$31)

Direct brand deal: $420 (3-month contract)

What changed month 10-14: I stopped random articles and started proper topic clustering. Every article now supports one of 12 hub articles. Google rewarded the structure — traffic doubled in 4 months.

Revenue per 1K pageviews: ~$112.

Biggest lesson: structure your content like a library, not a blog.
