Is it possible to make some revenue with a 5K daily celebrity blog? Or I need MILLIONS of hits per day to make some cash? I installed some ads on the sidebar, 3 CJ offers and I see 0 clicks after 1 week on my CJ stats... How is that possible? Error in the link code? Or people just don't click? I have 5K UNIQUE daily traffic.
People may not be aware of your ads, or they are more focused on the content. Are you putting in advertisements in the content of the post? It has been our (my wife and I) experience that once the ads were in the post, the click through rate went up as well as conversions (depending on how targeted our ads were to our content), thus I wrote a plugin that adds the ad within the content of the post without changing the look or feel of the site or the blog post.
Until you can match an offer directly to the intentions of your visitor you will likely not make much money at all. Why do people come to your site? When they get there are they getting what they want for free? If so then why would you expect them to buy?
I assume that your ads are not targeted to your visitors. For celebrity related blog, I would recommend you to try CPA offers from the weight lose niche.
I used CJ before on my site, but removed them now because they are not very profitable. The revenue is very low, you might be better off placing Google's image ads.
Hey, You can try toolbar download offers. They will definitely convert well with your web-traffic and you can easily earn $1-$2 per download. Cheers...!
the main thing is the ads should be related to your site's content. And next thing is the placement of your ads. If your ads is inside your content or posts, then you can get better clicks. So, try these things. you surely have better clicks in you ads
1. You should try some new ad space. 2. Place Targeted ads and affiliate banners on your site. 3. Traffic is not every thing, Just mix up your ads with your template and place the ads between your contents not only in sidebar. 4. You should add some solid reviews on related products in your site. Note: But after all the tips its your credibility, Quality contents and profile that actually give you some sales.
Match the products/offers to what celebrity freaks would buy. I would try beauty and fitness related products.
please check my website and suggest me where should i put the ads i have traffic but no revenue from google ads plz suggest me what should i do...? my website is - http://masala-guru.info/ and http://auto-guides.info
I get click from all my affiliate programs except CJ, I get clicks on eBay, LinksShare, Amazon, I use text links, banners coupons, some of CJ links and banners are on the same pages with the other affiliates, other affiliates get clicks and CJ don't.
5k page view dailys is really a big amount of traffic which could convert u lots of money. u will need to rearrange ur ads placement.
Since it's celebrity related, perhaps look into partnering with companies that sell celebrity jewelry knock offs or celebrity clothing or even fan posters of the celebrity you're writing about on that page-- things like that may get you a better conversion and I fully agree with the suggestions above about including some of the ads directly into the content of your posts. If it's in their face you should get more clicks.
You know... I've got the same problem. I just started to monetize my sites, particularly one of them that gets approx 250 page views per day. I know it's not much but... WHY is there NO impressions shown on CJ's reports? It's been 2 days now! I had the same problem with CB but that was at least registering impressions shown, whereas CJ doesn't report anything so far! I'm starting to think someone has hijacked my links, even though I masked my links. The ad banners I placed on my site are relatively relevant to my customers and the links are below post titles and below content as well. Anyone have any idea what could be happening? ***UPDATE*** All good now... but I hope Argentum's problem is solved?
