TV Streaming Site Question

    So, I jumped on the bandwagon about a month ago and started creating TV Streaming sites, primarily monetized by CPALead.com.

    I did ok at first, but earnings have dropped off a lot due to poor converting surveys. Also, I haven't promoted the site at sidereel due to the risk of being banned there.

    The traffic provided by sidereel is so significant, that I am curious if it wouldn't make sense to take CPALead's gateway script off, put adsense or some other unobtrusive ad on (that sidereel isn't opposed to), and promote the hell out of the sites there.

    Am I missing something?

    Anyone have any thoughts on this?

    Regards,
    Chris

    I guess I was missing the fact that Google bans sites that stream TV Shows. Glad I found that out.

    Any other alternatives, other than CPALEad and Zango?

    Very few ad networks will admit to accepting traffic from (illegal) TV streaming websites but there are a few out there that do. It's best to experiment with a few CPM and pop-up ad networks.

    Mine are gaining organic traffic, slowly, but consistently.

    The first one I built is up to about 50 UV's per day. The others are all over 30 UV's.

    Jeez, not much. Each site has a large number of videos on it, and I'm only earning $10-$15 / day across all 5 sites.
