Hello Community, I am the administrator of http://bios-mods.com. While I get about 1000 hits a day, I barely make 20cents a day. Over 3 months of usage, I have had 100,000 page impressions, and only 200 clicks. I have come to the conclusion that my ads simply aren't in the hot spot. I have some one the homepage, and within forum threads as well. Any advice is greatly appreciated, and I hope to get this fixed Thanks, TheWiz
Your site looks good and well-maintained. The ads displayed are not relevant at all to your site. I suggest you try to use google section targetting tags to enclose your articles. Or, if you can do a relayout, remove that ad on the left, then insert a 336x280 ad below the title of the article, push the contents and images below the new ad. The best ad placement is where your readers eyes are fixated, which in this case, are on the article itself, not on the left and not on the right.
Not bad, I would suggest a better logo and header (i know a great guy ), and get rid of the underlined on the hover link style in the top menu, as they look unprofessional due to the underline cutting through the icon, other than that, not bad
Yes, the menu underline and what not is going through a cleanup proccess , we are still tweaking all of the graphics. (I hate that underline too ) As for the ads. My other site computerlimbo.com is still very small but ALWAYS has relevant ads. This site is very big and sometimes does. We get a lot of Tigerdirect ads which is a major computer harware vendor, but we definitely get some off topic stuff too. My guess is that there aren't a lot of bids going out on such a specific topic (modifying a computer bios) so now the question is can someone suggest ad targeting methods, or do I rework it with newer keywords.
Just post new articles based on latest keywords about bios modification. You need to research a keyword lists for this.
looks good, except for the xhtml validation buttons... seem useless. I think you should put some fat banners on rotation down there.
Try reading this Post of mine. http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=1762509&p=13997288#post13997288 Just try and get reference. The ad on the side will surely not give u a lot of clicks and also not very targeted ads U have only one ad. You are lossing 66% of your revenue Also U dont have ads on your forum pages? Thats 100% loss
