Hey guys, need some help with this one. I need to monetize the following site, but I'm not sure the best way to do it: http://gamersreviewcorner.com/ I have some ads up there (i tried to copy Engadget as best I could, i figured that they were doing something right), but as of right now, not a single ad has been clicked. I have been getting about 300 unique hits a day... seems like I should have SOMETHING by now. Any thoughts on the ad placement, or does anyone have a better monetization suggestion? Gaming sites are hard... Thanks in advance!
I like the unique content, try to split it up to 2 sidebars, try using adsense on both sides, then put some adsense in between each post, so when they see the title of the next post they also see some adsense in which they could click to move on. Make your header more intriguing, it kind of makes me want to leave right away. Make your header tabs the way people navigate your page, Classify in to categories and in the specific categories maybe add affiliate banner links regarding that specific category to get clickthroughs to their page? Just some ideas. Good luck
Thanks for the input Fixed the header, I need something to put on the bottom right. I'm torn between a few key categories, or a stylized search bar... As for the ads, I don't want to make the site look too spammy (which I think adding a second sidebar will do. I like the categories idea however.
Why don't you try other ads such as adsense? While in the same time,try selling some game related product at your site to generate income.
i think your problem now is adsense i use adsense and is one of the best and i get up to 20 clicks a day
