How did 2016 revenue compare with 2015 revenue for you?

Now that 2016 has drawn to a close and we're all analyzing our revenue for the final month of the year, it is time to do our annual poll to ask how the affiliate revenue you earned in 2016 compared to what you earned in 2015.

How did it change? Did it get better, stay the same, or get worse for you?

And posts about your thoughts for the changes you have seen and your view of what the future holds are welcome. Do you think the changes between the two years is due to general business changes, to changes you have made to your sites, to a change in your level of effort, or something else?

If you'd like to see what folks reported in prior years, here are links to the relevant polls:

Hello,

For my part, I started moderately the year 2016 then after that increased.

I think I will have done more, if there were not any restricted countries for several reasons.

Up around 20%, mostly due to my base of referred player getting bigger each year.

My predictions for the future is that big companies like Catena Media will take a ever bigger slice of the cake, making it more difficult for smaller affiliates.
