I dont know what went wrong, everything is same it was before the adsense click area changed, I have tried CPMs and that were only shit becuase they split adsense income and that was way down... now these stats are from my 3 websites, where 2 are forum one with 6K and another with 5K inques and other is a website.. used to earn 1K+ and sometimes less, from adsense per month.. but now these are making $12-$18 per day, an average of $16, I dont ihnk these websites deserve that much income ? can anyone please tell me how to monetize this traffic ? these forums and website are webmaster / webdesginer related. thanks
You can signup for premium domains affiliate program. The ads are compatible with adsense so you can use them both to earn something extra.
For 15k uniques daily, that doesnt seem 'too' bad. Ontop of that, the niche can be a bit troublesome. Most people might not click it if they are knowledgeable in the area of ads. You might wanna switch into some affiliate marketing. Have the URL? hmm. That is a big drop, how long ago did you notice the change? maybe your ad placements are a bit off and need some fine-tuning/color changes? Whats the rankings? I noticed that a lot of people's earnings per click fluctuated after the click area change, though some saw improvements too. Also: Tried revenue sharing?
A 2 problems. Forums don't make much. Webmasters are the worst clickers. However if you want I can check out your optimization for your sites if you want, send the sites by pm. If not, thats fine. best luck,
That niche is pretty hard to get decent clicks from, though I have seen a few revenue sharing ones that make quite the handful, though they each have a bit more than 15k+ a day unfortunately. Though for the immediate issue, it might not be the best idea as that might fluctuate his earnings down a bit (until it rebalanced), depending on the %.
Forums traffic, especially webmaster/surfer forums is some of the hardest traffic to monetize. Good job on the money you have made
You could always integrate a google adsense to show up after the first post of each topic, seems to work well.
