Marijuana related website-Best revenue program?

    Hi,
    I have a marijuana picture website and I get about 300-500 pageviews per day. and 90-150 unique visitors.
    Currently I use AdSense but the best performance is a 0,90% CTR and 1-2$ revenue.

    Does anyone have a better program to use in order to get better revenue results??I tried to find some on my own but I got lost because many of the programs available doesn't seem very trustworthy.

    Any help is welcome!:)

    Stoners spend all their money on weed, so I think your out of luck :D

    Affiliate programs would be a better option.

    Did you add a affiliate program like legalbuds.com ... instead of making pennies you can make real money.

    That's why I don't think using legal buds-bongs-etc affiliates because I don't think my visitors would be interested.

    Well here is my opinion for this thread since I am actually a smoker. Smoke every day of my life and it feels so good but anyways you want to place affiliates on your site that will catch the smokers eye. When I browse a site and notice a real nice bong, smoking device, blunt wraps, etc then I usually click it to see more about it. Like I said make sure its eye catching because users will look harder at it when they are blazed. ;) hope this helps in your quest to make the dollar.

    lolololll... great website idea

    What about you creating an info-product on how to grow majijuana in your closet? Here in France, there's a guide that's being sold on this exact topic and it's making a killing...

    Of course, you would need to seek legal advice on this.

    You could also sell those pictures (at wathever price works best) or offer some kind of help on how to quit smoking and promote a ClickBankProduct on how to quit majijuana smoking (there's one 100% certain).

    Go monetize that baby!

    I have a few funny weed posts on my blog and have sold a few Aerogardens for amazon. None of the ebooks sell often but the aerogarden has been selling off that page for 2 years.

    It depends I used to be a moderator on growing forums. Their main revenue came from grow lights and grow boxes (really expensive boxes full of floro lights, pretty fancy) they did comissions. They also worked out deals with some seed banks overseas but those were paid ads not affiliate.

    If you are just general marijuana then maybe online pipe shops are your best bet?

    Try selling Bob Marley, Jamaican, Rasta, Greatful Dead items. Anarchist handbook, Cheech and Chong DVD's. T-shirts w/ weed slogans. Urine-cleansing kits. Hemp products.................ect. The possibilities are endless.

    I would suggest adding affiliates that help "cure" marijuana addiction. perhaps self-help books and other programs that help addicts clean up. other related affiliates would be self help books and other programs on stopping cigarette addiction and the like.

    my 2 cents

    sorry if this is off topic but...
    I smoke(medicate) legal buds, they aren't alternatives, they are the real deal
    True OG Kush (Indica). In other words...you don't have to be smoking legal buds that are alternative to the real deal and harm yourself! Ask any doctor....

    Umm... try looking for head shops online and see if they have an affiliate program. This seems like a logical thing to do... I also remember seeing an offer once on a few affiliate networks... it sold a growers box or something... basically it had lights in it and it was a small box-like thing that people could use to grow everything from tomatoes to whatever they want on their table :p

    Think like a hash-head. If you were a hash-head, what other things would you be interested in? Reggae music (tick, Amazon CD affiliate ads), merchandise, certain types of decor, ashtrays, clothing... help them leading their lifestyle and they will happily come back for more!

    LOL, eeh, LOL :D :D you made my day! Me rollin on da floor splittin da sides LOL
