Hi,

I'am new to this forum and was wondering if you could review my site. The site has been online for over a year and the main source of income is through advertisments. I have had a hard time finding advertisers willing to advertise plus getting clicks on my ads. The site receives about 6000 unique visitors per month, which turns into about 75,000 page views, so I don't think its the traffic. Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time

Troy

This is a universal problem. There are only so many things you can do about this unfortunately.

Pay to get more visitors and tune up the usability and graphic presentation of your website to meet the demands. Your numbers are good already probably due to your vertical but they aren't where large advertisers like to see them. Get those numbers up.... don't stop calling your advertising targets until they place an order and then...keep doing that.....

About the ads.... you want clicks?... put pretty girls in bikinis on the banners and you'll get your clicks... believe me.... Banner ads are ineffective for gaining customers, and are only slightly good for legitimate brand recognition and porn/gambling site gateways.


The site is usable although it could use some professional design treatment.. I only say this due to the trust enhancing factor of good design, and that users will gravitate to informational sources they trust.....

Cheers,

Chris
