    Hey guys, I have a problem. I have a forum and fanpage about a french singer who isnt that popular anymore.

    I started my websites having first 2 weeks almost 10 bucks a day.

    Later then about at least 3-5...

    Now im happy when im getting 2.50 to 3 dollars?

    Its a vbulletin forum about a no so popular singer in france anymore... I get a lot of "Lost password, IT ads"

    What should I do?

    Would vbSeo improve my Adsense income?

    You have already answered your question. If your content is not popular anymore then no SuperDuperSEO can help you. Concentrate on content. Try to publish some new stuff related to your hero, some old previously unreleased pictures, etc

    Thanks, will do so...

    But what about all these IT adds, recover passwords and stuff... there are low paying ads ey? And I would love to get more ads about events, music, etc etc but it doesnt seem to work...

    Sorry to tell you this that forums don't convert aswell as other regular pages.

    The problem not in your visitors nor in your site. But an unpopular item cant bring high paying and relevant ads.

    Because adsense advertisers don't advertise anything related to your content, you are getting broad and general ads from big advertisers. Naturally, because they are not targeted they won't pay much per click. You can be lucky you at least get those, you might get PSA ads which won't pay anything.

    Probably the only best way to monetize your traffic is to offer products (cds, t-shirts...) of your French artist.

    That may be because his demographics is different than yours. Advertisers will usually pay way more for a click from the US, CA, UK (and alike) than from a click from China, India, Pakistan...

    you need to optimize you AdSense block.

    I agree w/ them, try updating the content of your site or make some new buzz about it. Continue SEO stuff on it. With that traffic and impressions, the possible problems is how you placed your adsense blocks. You should fix it.
