    Hi!

    I've had my website up for quite some time without really monetizing it (I once sold some links, didn't go that well). I'm not all that happy about adsense, but any other suggestion would be greatly appreciated! :D

    http://www.study-habits.com

    Get's around 20,000 pageviews and 10,000 unique visits (0$ in revenue :eek:). Most of my traffic comes from Google. Thanx in advance!

    you should try adsense and put feed box (feedburner, feedblitz) on home page.

    for that page view 20k u should be earning around 20*7 ($7 CPM) = 140$

    I think the flash banner and navigation is not really necessary and easily replaceable with CSS/Javascript. search engine doesn't crawl your site link with flash.

    Thanks for the input everybody! All my numbers were meant to be per month in case I confused somebody :D I agree, the flash is kinda unnecessary. I do have text links at the bottom though. I tried adsense and didn't work out that well :/

    I still believe you will have more chance if you continue to work on Adsense. Since you have a lot of visitors and page views, that should not be difficult. All you need to do is to work on the placement until you hit it right.

    Nice looking site. Put some discrete adsense onto the site. You may need a sticky function - "Post your favorite pre-study activity!"
    Encourage 2-way interaction.

    You could monetise it by adding another header tag to include 'resources' and add an ebay feed to bring up student acessories, or whatever. I use rssbay2, which I have found to be effective.
