Bingo Card Creator is pretty firmly EOLed. Sales YTD this year are about $30k, probably $35k all-in for the year. Profits are stable at about 60% unless I miss my guess. This is down substantially from previous years, partly as a result of Google changes which I haven't made the least bit of effort into looking into. Also have ~$1k a month from books/courses, and hoping to get out another course before the end of the year, if life cooperates.
My main gig these days is Appointment Reminder. I'd describe it as "modestly successful." (A single signup for the largest publicly available plan is, probabilistically, worth more than BCC made in its best months. Historically, that has only received about as much sales effort as BCC clients got -- i.e. nil -- but I'm experimenting with having active inside sales starting this week.)
- JasonCEC 12y agoPlease share your experience with active inside sales (when you have some anecdata) - I know many of us would find it a valuable read.
- chrisan 12y ago> partly as a result of Google changes which I haven't made the least bit of effort into looking into Do you know what google changed at least or simply that google changed _something_ and organic traffic dropped significantly?
- gk1 12y agoMoz keeps a record of known Google algorithm updates: http://moz.com/google-algorithm-change http://moz.com/google-algorithm-change In 2014 alone there have been more than a dozen of major updates. Keeping up takes significant effort.
- dennisgorelik 12y agoCould it be that decline in Google traffic was caused by your reducing the capabilities of free Bingo plan? If users are disappointed about how little free product can do - they are less likely to open Bingo Card Creator's page in the future and Google takes that unwillingness into account.
