I have a site averaging 4k-5k unique visitors a month, i know thats not a crazy amount of visitors but it is pretty decent. I also have adsense in a couple of places on the site, however its not generating any revenue , maybe a few cents every couple of days. the majority of the traffic is coming from th UK. any ideas on how to increase revenue on this? the site is: www.theclevelandshow.biz Thanks for your time.
place some ads between the videos. Not too many though. Once the visitor scrolls down on your site they can't see any ads anymore and I guess this is why you don't get many clicks.
yah i also agree with them the ads placement is not optimized that's why it doesn't make any money... my suggestion is the same with them try to put couple of ads beneath so that when your visitor needs the ads they can click it anytime... plus i suggest you make special post in between offering some products of your affiliate network because your visitor might get interested with it...
If Adsense is not bringing in revenue, you might try selling ads directly to advertisers. You could promote the ad slots on your site and on various forums, such as here on DP. You could also try promoting an affiliate product or service that is relevant to your visitors. Have a look at some of the affiliate networks such as ClickBank and Commission Junction.
There is a huge obsession of getting adsense ads integrated perfectly with your website, true, they need to blend, but they do in some ways need to be noticeable (unlike yours) to the visitors. They need to spot the ads, read them and then think "oh, I like the sound of that" then they click.
a great example of good ad placement is this forum itself. why don't you put the side bar in the right.
Since yours is purely a video streaming site, why not use video advertisements? But this may affect your traffic rates. Worth a shot though! Good luck with your site.
