    hi, i just assumed admin'ship of a broadcast related site with 5k uniques per day, PR4. It's making $2/day with adsense, and about $400 for subscriptions and online ads combined. Online banner ads are fetching about $10 month. I'm thinking that's low, but i'm not sure the best next steps to take. Any pointers are welcome!
    thanks,
    mark

    There seems to be a lot of scope to optimize the adsense. If you share the URL, you may get some tips.

    Your right your adsense is pretty low, about $0.40 eCPM which you should look at placement etc.

    $10 a month for a banner ad seems pretty low too, could probably make more with text link ads a month

    I would recommend a Banner (468 x 60) or a Medium Rectangle (300 x 250) under "Latest News" title or/and a Leaderboard (728 x 90) under the top menu.
    That way you will see your ctr/revenue going up ;)

    well, you are giving out your banner ads price too cheap. 150k uniques per month? I would suggest at least $50/month (with other banners rotated), so you can get at least $100/month from banner
