I need a couple of suggestions on what to promote for one of the sites I run.

It receives decent traffic for it's niche, the forum runs smoothly with maybe 50 new posts everyday but I don't know what to do anymore to get people to either click AdSense, buy the book or buy a t-shirt. That's why I need suggestions.

The site and forum are about a game conversion that my friend wrote for the d20 system (Dungeons and Dragons) and a popular Japanese anime.

The ads are mostly well placed, well blended (maybe a bit too well?) and the site is not cluttered with ads, outbound links and other distractions.

I know it's hard to give suggestions without seeing the site and forum but I just need some suggestions

Thanks.

If your using the large banner size for adsense, try the large box format, i usually get better results with that. I'd also add maybe a CPM skyscraper so you get paid on impressions and maybe a small auctionads ad (targeting comics and D&D collector's items) somewhere that isnt too distracting since i dont know of too many CPA offers that would appeal to the dungeons and dragons audience.

Good luck

Thanks for the advice, Joseph.

I already have AuctionAds up and the template don't allow me to put box or skyscrapers. There's simply no place to put them. Gonna have to figure something out

I would take up your offer, MrCat, but the forum has a very minimal ROI.

The subject is a very small niche with not a lot of openings and the product offered cannot be legally sold due to copyrights issue.

I will keep in mind the PPC publisher stuff but probably for something else, unless you cover only games related sites?

Could you post the link here so we can visit your forum and have a better assessment?
