Hi everyone. my website that started 5 days ago is called Video Game Heaven: Online Theater of Videogame Movies. the main thing in my website is videogame that I played, recorded, and edited into a multi hour long movie. I have gotten 2500 page views in the previous 5 days but only total of ... 10 clicks. I have read in other posts saying that Media sites are harder to get clicks because people come for the contents. can someone please give me some tips or maybe some links that can help my media based website? thank you _ivan
The best tip, unfortunately. is keep reading posts on this forum. It might be good also to find other ways of monetizing your site.
you mean adding pages that are text/content based? I have been thinking about adding the "Fan Fictions" of the game movies. that might be one solution. what other things can I do?
best thing to do is place the ads in spots that people are more likly to click and where they look more like content then actually ads
The best tip, is to build another site,you current site isn't so good for adsense(if you want to make money mainly by adsense),of course keep this site.
so my 2nd site should be TEXT based I suppose? that means I need to WRITE a lot eh ... not that I don't like to write. I've taken many writing classes and likes to write fantasy and romantic fictions . it just takes a lot of time and I am not sure if people would wanna read ...
Video Games content is not unique and ads are limited and low paying. If your aim is earning from adsense change your subject, otherwise keep your current site maybe it will help to pay its hosting
I think video sites do get a lot less clicks, maybe you could add more contentto your sites. Content sites generally have higher CTR than sites with audio and visual media.
Try using cpm networks, valueclickmedia is a good one to start with, it will earn you more then adsense for those 2500 impressions
