1,000+ Hits a month. How can I make $$?

Hi All,

Newb here. A friend heard this site was a really good place to learn. I run a site for a volleyball tour in NJ. I get an average of 1,000 hits a month, sometimes up to 3,200. How can I make money of off this?

Here's a link to my stats:
quandomania.com/mint/

The site has Google Ads running, but I've only made $50 in one year of running them. I fear that maybe Volleyball is too much of a niche audience to make money??

Anyone have any recommendations?

Thanks,
~jeff

You need more uniques. 33 a day isn't much. Volleyball is certainly big enough to profit from, you just aren't getting enough of that traffic. Try SEO.

Yeah, I heard before that your site will automatic generate income once it hits 500 unique visitors per day. So now just concentrate to bring more traffic.

There is no niche too small, however jddunn9 has summarized your issue, which is that you do not yet have enough traffic to significantly exceed what you are already making.

Hopefully this is a general volleyball site and you will have a lot of room to expand and work on increasing your readership/traffic.

If you have made $50 a year from your forum traffic then that doesn't seem all that bad from your traffic. lol.

As mentioned above, you need more traffic.

Not many uniques at all. Visit my site (in my signature) to get a better idea of how to drive traffic to your site.

Look into affiliate marketing, or contextual ads. Then start writing articles and submitting them to social bookmarking sites (stumble esp.) You'll get a great traffic spike, and if you layout your site the right way, it'll pay off.

I think the traffic of your website is too little to make money.
You need a good seo to promote the traffic.

Your ad placement and blending isn't very good either. kill the borders and work on integrating the ad into the post/text area.

Your theme is fun so use that as the basis of your website. Write interesting articles on playing volleyball. How to play, volleyball tournaments in the area. Best volleyball players. History of volleyball. Adding beautiful girls on the beach playing volleyball won't hurt either. Do you have any books, equipment or volley gear available for sale. Think about that

Even though you have a decent page rank of 4 you only have 5 incoming links. I would work on that.

Also yeah, get rid of the adsense border and incoperate the ads more into your content. Don't use the default Google layout.
