I was just curious for other peoples feedback on ways to improve the revenue from my site. I'm working on Googles adSense, and becoming an affiliate for Amazon.com. I really don't know wether either one is very profitable. So if others can provide their feedback on this subject it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Well, could you provide us some information about your site? Is it purely informative, an affiliate website? Are you getting targeted traffic?

Adsense is really suitable for purely informational sites, and if you get many visitors you could be getting a good income from it.

Yes Adsense could be the best idea.

My site is mainly informative. I do offer some other services such as live chat help, however, the sites main purpose is to instruct and inform users. It's content is based on computer repair ( both software, and hardware ). I put my application into Amazon.com and they accepted it as well as google's adSense. The reason I was looking at Amazon was because I know they sell a variety of things ( including software and hardware ) and they have a good name.

Dustin you can make money in a lot of ways, but I'm not sure there's one way that's automatically better than others.

AdSense is certainly one of the easier ways to monetize a site, but if you've built enough traffic into the site you can probably make more selling advertising directly.

Amazon is certainly one affiliate program, though they don't pay a lot. You can look at sites like Commission Junction or Link Share or any of the other affiliate networks and try to find specific products to match your topic.

The best thing to do would be to try a few and see which ones work the best for you and continue to work to improve your site, your traffic, etc.

What's your passion, man? They have a market for fried tofu - whatever it is you're interested in, and make your site about, find affiliates to promote in that arena, because your readers will already have shown interest just by visiting.

What about splash screens for ads like on myspace when people log in and it shows an advertisement.

I would think that would be a good method rather than popups or banners

Have you seen Googles new affiliate program? It seems you can sell pretty much anything with it, that might be worth checking out

Selling ad space, text links and adsense is a good way to go. You don't make a great deal but every little helps as a major supermarket would say.

If you have the money to pay for professional SEO, than that's the best way to go. Organic search engine results will get you more traffic. Than you could look into selling to that traffic.

Adsense is in most cases the best revenue source, but in your case, you could earn money by doing referals to hardware shops...
