In June I made a total of about 3 dollars, not being really active at all, yet still having 16 things and 51 clicks (worth per incoming click, about 6 cents). July was 4 things strong, with about 50 cents worth of revenue on 22 clicks (bit more than 2 cents per click). August saw 7 things, 56 clicks and 1.45 in revenue (2 and a half cents per click worth).

Now why sum these up and make a September post at all?

5 things posted in September, 2 of which were forum “thanks” flattrs. One was the Flattr MediaWiki extension and one was the May post, I already linked above. These 4 things accumulated 5 clicks and 1.53 in revenue (a whooping 30 cents per click). But there is one thing missing, and that is ReFlattr. With only 16 clicks, it has managed to get a revenue of 14.52, or about 90 cents per click. Adding the whole month into one bundle, we get 21 clicks, 16.05 revenue and 76 cents worth per click.

This is a pretty huge jump, compared to the low click values of the months before this, even the ones that aren’t ReFlattr. But I haven’t talked about ReFlattr before.

The idea is simply to allow people to Flattr again without having to remember to Flattr again. The REST API of Flattr would generally allow that, except you can’t get the data needed yet. Doesn’t mean I can’t be programming it and be prepared for the moment when you can actually grab said data.

This also shows me that people really want to have this as a feature, so I will spend some more time on the code to make sure it is ready for when the data comes.

Of course my sample size is rather small, Flattr is still in it’s early and humble beginnings and many options are still missing from Flattr. But for a first full month, this is a respectable kick off.
