Is $35 a month good for 60k page views per month?

    Hi guys,

    I've been offered $35 a month to post a link four times a week in various articles on my website. I'm currently getting about 60,000 page views a month. Is this a good deal?

    Thanks for your time.

    It depends on your niche. Also, have you try promote promoting affiliate products in your articles? If not, you can give that a shot. If you are generating over $35 a month for your articles, then there is no need to accept those offers. If your articles are getting good traffic from Google, you may be make a killing if you just stick a related affiliate product in your article.

    Thanks. It's a sports blog. I'm looking to apply for Google News in the next couple of weeks though, so should I steer away from links in articles?

    Thanks for your time.

    Not many, I'm guessing. I'm happy with $35 a month really at this stage. Anything is a bonus. I was just trying to see what other people thought.

    Most people paying for these links want to know specifics. Just because you have 60k UV's doesn't mean anyone will click through a link drop

    Honestly with that many views you could probably do better testing out various affiliate offers. Check Clickbank, JVZoo, CPA Networks, etc. Keep testing until you find a better price point/ROI. You could always rotate in that $35 offer as well if you just can't pass it up;)

    Best of luck!

    I kinda agree with the people who said it's kind of low. I am positive your ads could be targeted better. Can you share the link to your site?

    Mostly it depends on your niche, but as a general rule I wouldn't be too happy about it.

    It seems a little low to me for that traffic. There has to be something driving the visitors away. Do you think your prices are too high? Or it might be your site functionality. Is it very easy to understand what you're selling or to order from you?

    I think to get started is not that bad, it is not the greatest pay in the world, but is a start. I would take that offer and move my way up from there. I am pretty sure that is not going to be the first and last offer that you are going to come across in your online career. If I were you, I would take it until something better comes my way. I hope that helps a little bit.

    Negative. Should be $50 or more. But subjected to the age of it. Usually more the time spent,more increase in the income..
