    I'm selling a coupon site i have almost had for a year. I have done some backlinking work and have submitted it to directories. The reason i am selling is because it just sits around while I work on my other sites. It's wordpress based and hosting is paid up for the next 3 1/2 years. I will also renew the domain name for another year when site is sold.

    Hi there,

    You have good traffic to your coupon site. :)
    Well, i have questions for you:
    - how do you monitize this type of site?
    - how much do you earn every month from this site?

    Thanks.
    Regards.

    You make money off this site many ways

    1. CPA Ads
    2. Adsense
    3. Product and grocery coupons bring you a percentage of the sold product, also you sell giftcards which are automated you just have to import the product coupons
    4. Amazon Widget
    5. Advertise your own products

    As far as earning I never really focused on that part sad to say because when i made the site I had 3 other sites to focus on and i never put Adsense. I have made a few dollars but nothing substantial so just consider it as no earnings at the moment

    First you have to sign up for programs such as commission junction, linkshare, and shareasale
    Then you have two options you can either manually input them which takes a while or you can sign up for icodes or for me to coupon.
    Personally i use icodes because its free to sign up and yes it is wordpress

    Hi bwill757,


    I checked out your stats you posted; one of the main aspects with this business is traffic. More importantly is quality traffic that is unique. Your site does not have allot of traffic. When you were promoting the site what was your main marketing methods? Affiliate networks takes notice of where the traffic is coming from. I.e. an publisher can lose advertisers/clients if the advertiser thinks your traffic is bad or is not converting. I've been in this business a long time I'm talking from experience.

    Doesn't icodes come with a cost. The sign up, as you said, is free ... but after that?

    I have not had any cost with them yet. They do however have a $50 a month plan that adds a few more features.
