Created an iOS dev company few months ago w/ a friend. We made $50k in August from a successful free iphone app. (around $40k in a regular month). We are only two in the company and we are still college students. Don't know what to say more about this but feel free to ask any question (except what is the app ^^)

#93It tends to depend on how close it is to the basketball season. We found the in app purchase model to work really well for us.

did you make that developing games for someone else, or is it revenue garnered from a game you made?

#95I used make about €200 a month on hubpages until Google Panda hit.The majority of this came via Amazon affiliate sales. I still make a bit now, but it is way down.

not a game, an app we made for ourselves. Our first one and we only work on this one now due to lack of time (takes a lot of time to maintain a 500k monthly users app :p)

#98-$20/mo from http://www.golfingstat.com . Can't get any traffic and the traffic I do get doesn't click on ads. FML
I had $200 of adsense free credit. Ended up getting users (like 100). Then I had $50 of Facebook credit and that turned into like 20-30 users. Just don't know what to do at this point. Don't want to spend more time adding features if it is not going to lead to anything. Was thinking of making it like $10 a year or something and trying to get paid users instead of ad users. Just not sure if anyone would even pay $10.

#100As I see some 'used to' posts as well; I used to make quite a bit from blogging (especially reviews I did, but real ones, not paid ones), however Google Panda tanked that. Even though it was nice content. It made over $10k/month. Dropped to around $100 which is just enough to pay the server.
