I run an adult industry site that has some of the same-old material you would expect (interviews with porn starlets and producers, interviews with cam girls, etc). But the bulk of the content is made up of news and (especially) reviews from the international sex service industry (explanations of how "happy ending" massage works in the states, reviews of blowjob bars in Asia, go go bars, brothels, interviews with prostitutes, etc).

I've averaged anywhere from 125,000 - 250,000 pageviews per month over the last six months. To give you an idea, my pageviews for the last five days have been:

2,751
3,867
5,595
7,508
2,652

I run ads from JuicyAds, Fleshlight and some webcam sites. I've made about $300 collectively from all of these in 2013.

The only real money I've made came has come from ad space I sold directly to a related business. It still wasn't that much.

Although I didn't start the site to make money, I would mind it, especially since I put so much time in. I have a mainstream site getting 1/10 of the pageviews yet making around $10 in banner clicks and $10 in affiliate sales a month.

What gives? I know I can't run mainstream ads but I should still be able to make something, right?

How much money should I be making with these kinds of stats?

Thanks for your advice.
