I have a site that receives over 150,000 unique visitors each month, but I have no clue how I should advertise it since I've never owned a site that's received as much traffic as this one.

First of all, the site in question is RO-Guardians.com, and the main attraction is the forum, which has over 15,000 members:
RO Guardians Forum

Right now I have a few CJ advertisements aswell as a few AdBrite ads. Just put them up yesterday so I can't really give much detail to how much I'm earning.

The site is based on a popular online game. How would you recommend I monetize the site? should I try Adzoogle?

I'm hoping to monetize this site to try and bring in $xxx per month to cover server fees so that the site runs on itself.

I appreciate any help you can give me on this.

Here are a couple of basic suggestions:

- Invest in a custom design, this will give you some creativity for your ad placements

- Don't have your PPC or Contextual ads too far down the page, people barely scroll.

It's basically a redirect.

Right now I'm trying some mobile ads on AzoogleAds and hoping I will get some results within the next few days.

- AdBrite?
- Selling premium forum membership? (I started doing this couple of week ago and it seems like a good plan)

You're banned from Adsense aren't you?

You could try enquiring to some places about banner ads. Possibly selling text links

I might give textlinkads.com a try. I just started testing them on one of my sites, but I have heard good things about them.
