How much did I earn in November 2025?
Another good month financially as I received notification that someone had signed up through my Youfibre affiliate broadband link on 20th November 2025 (if this is you, reach out to me as payment can take 9 weeks, just to make sure you get paid to). As it’s £75 each for the both of us when it pays out. I’ve been with the service for around 6 months or so now, and can’t complain. Prices have been fixed to date, and services have been reliable. I don’t like their router so I’ll be replacing it with my 1u pfSense router when I eventually finish it
Not much has changed for payouts from Adsense, EPN or Amazon. My amazon page is building traffic, so I need to work on conversion of it. EPN is a bit sucky now, they’ve replace it with my ambassador storefront now. Whilst it seems more professional to have a store, the only thing I don’t like about it I lose the option to create individual links. Which also screwed up the SEO for my website as a lot of them died. It gave me the opportunity however to change over some links on my website. As for Adsense, that just keeps going out and ticking on. I actually have an idea to create several thousand affiliate links as part of a project in later dates. More to that when I do it though.
Website traffic had a loss. I’m still hitting around 45,000 page views (145,000 hits) per month on my website now. I had a major traffic loss on around 22nd November though. I never realised it but my blog went down, and my blog accounts for a large portion of my traffic now by the looks of it. My stats are are merged now, so it’s a bit hard to track it all. I managed to resolve the issue with my Blog however, it was a permission issue with the folder. I carried out a back up though just in case.
That’s it for the website for now

Monthly admin thoughts
Got back from holiday to work, it’s been really busy. We’re at peak period now, so workload has increase excessively. I also went back to several hundred emails to read thorugh which doesn’t help when you’re busy
Bonus though, is I submitted a lot of overtime this month for my Xmas payday. Not sure if I’ll get any Xmas bonus, but I’m thinking of the money and going to keep it in my bank for now as my car insurance is due within 1 month or so. If I don’t need the money, I’m thinking of buying either my toolbox for the shed to hold all my car tools (around £1600 worth), or an Electronics Microscope/Oscilloscope which would be around the same price. Both would benefit me for future work and projects
Car has been fine considering the crappy weather. Although I’ll need to scan it. I noticed a dimly lit bulb on the dashboard one morning (worried it was the battery initially), but I think it’s a fault issue in the headlight adjuster circuit on my headlamps. I’ll scan it to find out. Wouldn’t surprise me if it is since Electrical gremlins are a plague on these cars. I do need to replace my seatbelt bolster buckle when it warms up though. The constant beeping is irritating the hell out of me.
I’ve had no further errors with space, or recursive errors with my Blog since disabling Monster Insights. I’m assuming it’s something that was incomaptible with their plugin and the latest version of WordPress / PHP. I enjoy using it, but quite frankly I’m not paying for a yearly membership cost for it.
I hate the trap of annual recurring payments, I prefer lifetime payments, or a one off ownership license. I’m happy sticking with older versions which are fully featured rather than extra yearly running costs. I’m currently on holiday from work, so just using the time to unwind. May quickly look at my seatbelt bolster, and the exhaust clamp that was highlighted on the MOT whilst I’m off, as they’ve been bugging me a lot.
I’ve also started writing the basic PHP code for my RSA Factoring project. I’ve also purchased a computational card for future experiments with my computers because they have some CUDA cores allowing me to benefit from parallel computing.
