    Hello,

    I have a website averaging over 5,000 unique visitors a month. I am looking for ideas on how I can make some income off it, Adsense hasn't worked out too well for me so I just wanted to see if you guys have any other ideas.

    Thanks for your time.

    Depends what type of website it is. You're going to have to give a bit more information if you want some good tips from the DP community ;)

    Most sites work well with AdSense, so I would say try applying there and see if you get accepted. Also 5000 uniques a month isn't bad, but it can definitely be improved. If you want to make some real money off of your site, try promoting it a bit more to gain even more uniques a month, and run AdSense or Microsoft's PubCenter ads if you can for a bit of revenue

    The best way is selling banner ads at your site.
    And in the same time,selling some link if your site have high pr.

    bros, adsense has a certain rule you must follow,if your traffic is from the poor countries, i want to let you know that it would not workout.

    did i hear you ask why?

    let me give you a very simple tip but not all,when you apply it even though you have only 200 visitors a month, google company will pay without without delay:

    here we go:
    google company knows too well that of all the clicks that comes from poor countries(i will not mention their names) will hardly be converted to money(ie they only click to view both they don't buy anything).

    only in USA about 99% clicks are converted to money.even though you have 10000 visitors amonth, you may end up with only $20--$50.

    but if your target visitors are from USA, only 200--2000 visitors can earn you pretty $100-$150.

    go and put counter in your site, your will see that most of those visitors are not from USA.

    My advice for you is that:
    change your targeted audience and you will enjoy adsense cos it worth it.

    if you traffic is not from USA,even though you labor like elephant, you will not enjoy adsense,

    let me tell you ,just a click from any country from USA can give upto $1--$2

    THE REason,becos those people click to buy,but other countries from other continets hardly buy.they have written their program in such a way that any click coming from other continents will be so small e.g 1000 cliks can give only $1.08. where as any click coming from any US region can give You just in a click $1--$2.

    my advice to you is simple:
    change your targeted audience

    I just want to congratulate you on such a cool site. I am always looking for great websites to watch some of my favorite shows online, and your website provides one resource. I'm a fan of The Cleveland Show, really funny stuff there!

    there may be so many...all you need to identify your target countries.....
    and the traffic coming from....???

    i am totally agree with anirob....if yr traffic is not from rich countries...there is no good use of that traffic and using adsense with....

    if thin you better go for some selling link, improve the PR of your pages, sothat webmaster can buy a link at your website.....
