- offer advertisement for other site on you site
- sponsor or affiliates programs

I see that you do get 60,000 visitors per month but are they quality visitors? The thing is that you will get a better response on your ad clicks if people came to your site voluntarily, and are interested in the information you offer. Are these visitors from search engines or from other means: traffic exchanges for example.

Also, if the website is the one in your signature, try moving the adsense ads around a bit. The banner ad on the right hand side is below the fold and way down the page. You can't expect good results if your users can't see the ad. Try experimenting and finding out where the advertising gives you the best results.

**talk2christie** · 12-14-2006, 08:27 AM

amyangel - Have you tried the free directory submissions, article directories, link exchanges?

**hhheng** · 12-14-2006, 10:35 AM

60000 visitors/month only makes $10/month? How much you pay for the google Adwords? What's your url? Maybe the visitors from google are not your targeted customers.

**ablaye** · 12-14-2006, 02:44 PM

60,000 visitors a month!!! Wow. What is your website URL? I wouldn't not mind buying a text link on your site. Please PM me the info.

**codeunix** · 12-15-2006, 09:21 AM

I think the site is a little crappy, it must shine more on the visitor and be more user friendly and attracting.

**originalthechad** · 12-15-2006, 09:58 AM

Well I have made major changes in last week site is going excellent up to 80'000 visitors already this month have switched to azoogle ads and are making alot better profit now

Many studies have been done on effective ads and ad space - and AD PLACEMENT

One of the things discovered is that people tend to look at the upper left corner FIRST, then scan
about a third of the way down the left side, and then across the page....

THAT'S your "target area" for ads - but it's up to YOU if you want to use it for selling
something someone else owns, or if you want to sell something that belongs to YOU....

After all, selling someone elses wares is OK, but it's a one-time-shot, and you will
only get your percentage from one sale -

THAT means that you will have to continually generate TONS of traffic in order to
continue to convert clicks to sales

THIS IS WHY MOST PEOPLE FAIL....

THEY GO FOR THE "EASY" BUCKS

And, as you've been learning, the "easy bucks" aren't so "easy"

However :

If you'e selling something that belongs to YOU - you get not only ALL of the profits from every sale,
but you get the sign-ups that come along with it, and certainly, the sign-up list
has MORE value than a few one-time bucks bring in -

THAT'S the value in owning your OWN LIST !!!!

Right now, you're probably generating a list for SOMEONE ELSE (in this case, Google),
and Lord knows, they don't need YOUR List....

YOU DO !!!!

Just thought I'd share those thoughts with you......

You might want to pick up a PDF I just posted in my response to SeoPros' posting -
the Title is about the Money is NOT in the list - and the PDF
is an extension of these thoughts....

Respects -

The figures are too much..we don't usually come across such a disparity. What you must look into is getting quality targeted traffic for your website rather than just traffic.

The thumb rule is 1 sale per 100 visitors...

PR 1 Ranking how to get 60'000 visitors ?

**originalthechad** · 12-18-2006, 04:54 AM

Im up to 110'000 visitors now and still not making much any more ideas?

**jenyfari** · 12-18-2006, 08:49 PM

What keywords are bringing your traffic in? Have you checked your stats? If you are getting 80,000 or 110,000 visitors are they just hitting your home page and then leaving because they aren't interested in what you have to offer?

If they are hanging around then you need to place your Google Adsense ads in the best possible places. Generally this is in the top left hand side of the screen. Check the Google Adsense site as they have articles and guides to assist with the best placement of ads.

**talk2christie** · 12-22-2006, 01:03 PM

Try and make your website more interesting then. Maybe some attractive graphics, more convincing content!

**originalthechad** · 12-25-2006, 07:50 AM

Woah some good ideas here

**talk2christie** · 12-28-2006, 11:00 AM

What you need is targeted traffic not just traffic so concentrate on getting that. No. of hits isnt really that important...no. of conversions to sales is!
