My site sexpositionadvice.com gets over 1500 visitors daily yet I can't make a dime off of it, as the site caters to couples dating affiliates are useless, Ive tried Ashley Madison with no luck as well. And the adult toy ads don't get much attention either, I probably just cover hosting with what I make from them, any recommendations would be appreciated. 70% of my traffic is US based
have you tried advertising on swinger sites? or swinger forums? That might be something that would appeal since a lot of swingers are couples... frustrating I'm sure!
I was looking more for ways to make money with the traffic I do have, but you do have a good point if I marketed teh dating sites with swinger based ads I may do much better.
The banner ads works well if your traffic is purely of quality. i mean traffic like ddl or other junk will not yield anything. But if you have youtube/media traffic or natural traffic (google, yahoo) you will get good sales with fling.
Say no to Ashley Madison, My payouts went way down since Crystal left. Don't waste your time with this there is other networks that actually pay.
You should create some sort of signup form on your site then monetize the email addresses you get. You can setup API posts to a lot of affiliate programs sites (a pre-join). Then you can figure out which site does the best and also if someone doesn't like one site they make like another that you pushed to them.
Put servery monkey on your site and ask the visitors questions, like what is the most devastating problems they are having right now, or something like that. When you gather enough answers, you can use that to create a product and sell it to them.
