    I assume with all the controversy on medical or legalized marijuana, adsense is not an option?

    Well to be completely honest, most people who use it, dont have any money because they are always buying it, so they are broke most of the time.

    Those that can afford it don't really care much about going to a website to read about it or to buy products, (I would look for affiliate opportunities)

    Over all there is not really a lot of opporunity

    If you are getting enough traffic, you will simply need to become an affiliate of a company that sells different types of bowls and bongs and start promoting them on your site.

    Sell marijuana obviously. I would have thought the answer to this question would have been pretty obvious :)

    Have you thought about selling seeds? I don't know what the legality is where you are based, but in the UK you can legally sell seeds (don't know why!)

    You could also sell a growing guide, or check out an affiliate program: cannabis-seeds.co.uk have one I believe (not tried as I am not in the niche.)

    For that kind of niche you should make a traffic plan that includes both offline and online traffic generation techniques. I would focus on Offline traffic because you can sell stuff, and promote to real audience that consumes that kind of products

    Have you looked into not just smokers but for people wanting to ride the explosion of relaxed laws through the states to sell medicinal marijuana legally?
    Selling a how to open up a collective/ dispensary in your state or another state, or how to make $50,000 a month selling medicinal marijuana (which is an accurate number by the way) or where to go to school to learn to deal with state and federal authorities, how to add value o the bud you are selling...maybe a how to cook with marijuana classes for older medicinal user who dont want to smoke...the list can go on really.

    Dont get pigeon hole'd just by focusing in on the users of marijuana...have fun with it.
