    My 1 year old website receives around 2750 daily visitors of which around 2000/day is UV.It's about fashion, clothing, celebrities and is highly targeted.I wouldn't think of ads if I didn't have to as this has just been my hobby and I'm learning so much about webmastering and seo but since I've been forced to move my website to VPS I'd at least like to cover the monthly costs which is $75/month.I've applied to google adsense but been rejected twice although couple of competitors been using it without a problem I just gave up.

    here are some stats:
    80.000all~50.000UV/month
    1,500,000 pageviews/month

    real time rush hour

    whole year report (drop down was due to my shared hosting just shut it down I manually transferred the website, it took a week)

    What do you recommend for me to use? How can I at least earn $75 a month?

    You could try CJ. I'm sure there would be many advertisers there that would fit your site.

    Also look into Amazon's affiliate program that might be an excellent fit for your website.

    Try CJ, ShareASale, LinkShare, Amazon or CPA networks (convert2media, maxbounty, peerfly, ewanetwork, cpatrend, cpatank etc). Make sure you know the demographics of your visitors. Then match those visitors of your site with the right offers/programs. Hope it helps :)

    Have you been given any reasons for being rejected from adsense?

    Other than that I would agree with those that suggested Amazon or Commission Junction.

    Good Luck :)

    Im my experience, CJ is crap and hard to sell products unless your users arrive at your site already looking to buy something. Same goes for clickbank, but some of the products on there are extremely targeted and can have some success on extreme micro niche sites. Amazon affiliate program is a joke, again your users have to already want to buy something, and even if they do the comission % is terrible. I have sold a few video games from my gaming site with an amazon link in the review, but the money isn't even worth the time it takes me to generate the link in the first place. My suggestion would be to go with adsense, try a few different ads and positions every 3 days or so and see what converts the best. EDIT: I just read you were having trouble with adsense, my advice would be to try and get accepted on a different site. Just make sure you read their TOS and follow them very carefully. If adsense still isnt converting well, try a CPM network, because with that traffic you will be making some decent coin. You can also try targeted fashion CPA offers, I have a fashion site that gets some decent revenue from these. My favorite CPA networks are Peerfly and MaxBounty. Adsend and CPA lead are also decent and will pay you. Also Fashion Traffic is a good PPS network with a ton of products to choose from that girls actually want to buy. (decent prices too) One other thing, I have never tried but one of my friends makes a few hundered here and there with BuySellAds. He makes a blank banner saying "your ad here" and people just approach him with $$ offers. Hope this helps !!! :rolleyes:

    thank you all for your suggestions.I've decided to put an empty banner that says "sponsor this spot" :) we'll see how it'll turn out.I also want to sell some related stuffs too.I thought that might bring some cash even tho conversion rates are very low.

    MaxBounty has quite a few CPA campaigns that should be a good fit for your site and demographic. You can reach me on AIM or Skype (maxbountyjess) if you'd like more details.Also, as a new affiliate, you'd be eligible to earn our $1,000 bonus. :)

    i really recommend of you putting Google Adsense Pay-Per-Click ads. This service offers you to put ads on your website that belong to Google, and for every user that clicks the add that are on your website, you would get revenue.
