    My forum is receiving 150,000 - 200,000 page views daily but I'm only making 10 - 20$ daily with adsense. Though, People have told me I can higher that amount easily. Any advice / suggestions?

    try adding some kind of an official download section, or some kind of a forum feature that you can only enable if you fill a survey once a week.
    you will triple your earnings if the feature/incentive will be good enough, you should take a look at cpalead.com and see what they have to offer you (i'm using them on my anime website, there are probably other good companies out there)

    good luck

    You have really good traffic but earning is very low.
    You should adjust your add placement to get more clicks

    Your adsense earning is good enough since game forum generally not generate big money.
    Maybe you can consider to add some affiliate program or PPC advertsing program that pay CPM

    From my experience running a gaming site, adsense does not suited to be its main earner. What you can do is targeting your user. Gamers usually love gadget and related stuff. Find CPA products such as ringtones, games, psp, ps2 etc.

    Mochi would be a great addition to your money earner if you have flash games on the site.
    Most important, setup a good and minimal ads inventory and sell it off. Buy and sell ads looks promising too.
