    The site in question is www.soccerengine.net.

    A am getting a good amount of traffic now and adsense is starting to tick. I have on this site other revenue streams that would earn a lot more money than what adsense offers and this was the main intension for the site.

    On the site there are live streaming sales, bookies adverts and I am an afiliate of the UK SOCCER SHOP. I have not had a lot of interest in the Bookies adds of live streaming yet and wonder what changes I can make to the site to try and incourage the use of these features. The site was made for these features and adsense was supposed to just be a little extra but at the moment adsense is turning over the most money.

    Any advice would be much appreciate.

    The site's homepage is taking an absurdly long time to load for me. Is there a possibility that this is the case on other pages? This would deter visitors from getting too deep in your site and seeing affiliate products. Do you have a live chat system? If people are getting live scores, you might want to try to add in a live chat system with a default commenter that posts links to your affiliate products during the chat sessions. Nice looking site, when it finally loads, though :)

    I think a live chat system would be a little over my head. In around 6 weeks time the site will be moved onto a different server.

    Has anyone here earned any money from Book Makers add and commissions?

    Well, I have earned money from betting affiliate programs, I still do. I have an important suggestion for you. Try offering a free subscription that will expire in x days. Get your visitors to subscribe to your mailing list. Then send them follow up info reminding them that they have x free trial days left and if they bought today they would get x% discount.

    Try promoting a betting shop that pays more, I use 1 that pays 45% of profits. affiliates.betias dot com
