    I have a blog type site that has a bunch of funny videos and pictures and gets about 800 unique visitors a day.

    Adsense didnt work well, i was only getting a couple cents for each click. How are you guys making money from this type of site?

    I dont want to use CPA or Zango because you loose the majority of your return visitors, plus, its not exclusive or hard to find content like a new movie that just came out so no one would fill out or install anything

    You can use zango only for people who come from search engine aka new visitors , in this way you will not hurt the return visitors ! if you need help with the code pm me.

    Try to sell link at your site or banner ads coz it can contribute more than adsense.
    Other than that,you can try place your ads at strategic position to increase the click

    No zango, but use CPA, try to promote the offers via your videos. It would be great if you could insert a code which would add promo link (of your cpa offer - example "free ipod", "free lotto") in each of these videos, at the beginning, and at the end..
