How to monetize this site?

    Hello folks,

    I have website http://howtogetlaideasy.com which is generating 600-700unique visitors per day. Most of the traffic comes from google web search with key terms: "how to get laid", "get laid" and also from google images such as "sexy women" "sexy girl".

    At first I wanted to make this website for clickbank products, but those products which I have do not convert as well as I would like to. I haven't done any sale yet, but maybe it's because of the content since it's done quickly and not well...

    How would you monetize this site? Is it worth anything or should I go and make another one with better keywords? I'm looking for CPA, but most of the dating networks do not accept signups (pay per lead) from such countries as brazil and so (my main traffic comes from USA/UK 65% and other traffic comes from different countries all over the world..). Adsense would not be good idea since the CPC is very low for those keywords..

    So what should I do ? Should I go for clickbank and make the website content better or should I try CPA/ADSENSE or something else? I would really like to get some income from this website, but at the moment it's 0$...

    Any suggestions/reccomendations are welcome.
    Thanks.

    Have you looked into any cam site affiliate programs?

    When I saw your page, my eyes just kind of glazed over. Put in some research on how to make good squeeze pages and write good copy that will grab the attention of someone right away. For example, put something that will grab attention into a H1 tag, and set your H1 tag font to something that will demand attention - Women Want To Have SEX! Did you start reading and just come across that "Women Want To Have SEX!" line as you were reading through the post, or did your eyes jump to it before you read the stuff around it and then you went back to read through the post wondering why I had "Women Want To Have SEX!" in big bold red letters?

    Why do you think that your visitors will buy product through that page? Put yourself in the shoes of your visitors. Will you buy those cb products through your website? If no, why not? Now you can do another thing. You have known how to set up a website and build traffic on it, so try to run another blog on another niche. And sell this site on flippa.

    Maybe I will just try to get #1 position in google.com. And at the same time I will try split-testing.
    At the moment I'm ranked 4th, but I have no idea how much would this site be worth..

    Is it worth to work on this site to get #1 position? As you mentioned that you hadn't get any sale from this website. So, why do you want to work more to get more traffic? You should work on increasing the conversion rate.

    I won't use Adsense to monetize this website, mainly because you are using sex or other xxx content and words. But I think you can consider monetizing it with affiliate network. Plimus can be a good option as well as some other networks. I won't use CJ I can't recommend them since they didn't pay me for the commissions that I won by promoting some of their affiliates.

    Another way to monetize it. You can consider to write an ebook and put it for sale (just a few bucks), for example you can make something viral and add "How to get laid - Real tips and tutorial inside the ebook" and make the readers to know that they can find more info inside the ebook.

    You should monitize your website with affiliate/cpa offers.

    I wouldn't focus on adsense...you need massive amount of
    traffic just to make a couple of dollars plus you lose that
    visitor forever.

    Thanks for your advice. I have tried adult friend finder and datinggold affiliates. I got some leads from brazol and india, but they didnt count.. I think it's best when somekind of registration popup comes up instantly, when someone lands on my page. But im not sure that some affiliates/cpa offers that kind of option.. If u know some affiliates that count leads from worlswide, then i would be more than happy. Thanks

    I would recommend avoiding an immediate popup upon entering your site. It can turn people off to your site immediately. If you really want a popup, a better option imo is to ensure that you are using good on-page tactics to increase conversions, and then implementing a popup system when someone goes to leave your site. That way, you get their attention when they want to leave, rather than annoying them before they even start or during the middle of their visit.

    You Need an Autoresponder so that you are collecting email addresses. You are getting plenty of targeting traffic so you should be converting it into sales.

    I would suggest the following put a pop up opt in form on your site. On the opt in form giveaway a free report (about 2500 - 5000 words. write it yourself or get someone else to write it)

    Create an autoresponder series about 10 emails long giving useful advice about how to get laid, you created the site so you should know how to write this.

    In the series include a series of soft and hard sales for the click bank product that you think will covert best

    That's a great idea! Do you have any idea, where or how can I install this opt-in from with autoresponder?

    I would say you should sign up for CPA networks. There are lots of offers related to your niche, and since it is a very lucrative niche, it surely will work for you, especially if you already have the traffic.
