    Do you have a tech site? How the FUCK do you make money???

    I have a site that's been around just over a year and a half now. Content is mostly tech news, software and OS reviews, tips and some downloads. I spent the first few months throwing money at it, getting really nice custom design, paying for quality custom-written content etc.

    Today the site gets around 45k uniques per day with over 700k pageviews (forums included). Posts get loads of comments and forums are very active with 30k members (after a recent inactive member/spammer purge). Honestly, I don't make shit from the site. It covers its expenses and that's about it. Most of the income is from paid plugs and prepaid ad spots. I've tried adsense but didn't make enough to justify cluttering up the content pages and forums with adsense blocks.

    I've tried numerous affiliate programs and bombed out on every one. How can I make money off tech savvy people?

      I run a software site, it gets about 1000 uniques/day.
      I make about $40 on adsense alone/day.

      Put the ads in the middle of the content and make them blend in.

          Try some CPA networks. You may find they have a bunch of offers your traffic is looking for.

                  I tried that. I even went as far as to add an ad block to the right of the first post in a thread. I had adsense in the RSS, tucked in between paragraphs of content and in a sidebar. I think the max I ever made from it was $50 in a day. Readers and forum members whined incessantly about the ads so since they didn't make much anyway I pulled them entirely.

                  Edit: Just looked up my adsense stats. The max I ever made in a day from that site was $31.70.

                  I might check into that. Thanks. I usually reserve CPA for my spammy garbage traffic but frankly that traffic converts better than the tech nerd traffic I have.

                                  Haha, those bastards will probably just shut it down. I used to like reading downloadsquad.com but AOL pulled the plug on it.

                                      Use BuySellAds for a site like that, it will help greatly.. or make your own material for people to purchase and take all the other ads off.

                                          I think how Leo LaPorte does it is perfect. He only takes ads from products he feels he can personally endorse, and the ads are him talking about the shit. Not produced glitzy ads.

                                          What could you learn from that?

                                          I'd try, assuming those 45k are actually engaged with your content and not just there by accident, hand writing text ads in the copy you're producing recommending products.

                                          Might be worth a go.

                                              One of our main stream sites Zoidsa.com which is geared towards South Africa does pretty well on limited trafic, it gets round 16000 uniques a day and makes money for us, but it is not that easy at all, we use local advertising for all of our sites and only have sites geared for US, UK and South Africa and use local traffic only. Our UK and US sites do even better but it does take a lot of effort, we have never had any luck with adsense and such only from local ads and affiliate programs we have signed up to. We hover round an Alexa Rank of 900 in South Africa for our one site and round 1200 in US and Uk for the other sites so that does help but that is with way more daily uniques.

                                                  Do you have a presence on your site? Do people know you and trust you? If so, I would use that as leverage. Maybe instead of offering standard advertisements, that people see everywhere, you "build" a campaign around a product.

                                                  For example, let's say that 30% of your traffic would really benefit from ABC Service. Create a section of your site dedicated to ABC Service, talking about the offering, telling people what it does, how you use it, etc. Then you link to your dedicated section. That isn't just an ad, that's part of you and your site.

                                                  Many years ago I ran a free wallpaper site and could not figure out how to monetize it. So I found products and services that tied in with wallpaper, themes, stuff like that and integrated the products/services into my site. It worked out pretty well I think.

                                                      Great points...... I write reviews for many products that I promote, they convert better and they get s.e. traffic which helps greatly down the road.

                                                      I get emails from my readers thanking me for turning them onto various things or answering some question they had about a product within the review... I don't get a ton of emails but I do get one very few months, so I know it's the right thing to do.

                                                          Leo is so much more personable than I am. I'd consider Leo a celebrity so his word has much more clout than mine. Admittedly I don't brand myself at all. I have two paid writers who contribute much of the content and I do a considerable amount of writing as well.

                                                          I do try to make the paid plugs personal and believable. I never promote any company I don't trust. Several of the companies whose products/services I have plugged have been with me for 3+ months so they're either happy with the results or have advertising money to burn. A couple have been giving my visitors special discounts or package deals and that apparently works well for them.

                                                          I've been doing my copy much the same as I do in adult but with very different results. CTR is respectable but conversion is abysmal. Maybe I haven't found the right products yet.

Our UK and US sites do even better but it does take a lot of effort, we have never had any luck with adsense and such only from local ads and affiliate programs we have signed up to. We hover round an Alexa Rank of 900 in South Africa for our one site and round 1200 in US and Uk for the other sites so that does help but that is with way more daily uniques.

(awe that was great maybe I should shoot him a thank you email... oh what was his handle again?)

                                                                              For real though here is what you do. Find a product that you like and you think your readers will like. Make a post/plug about the product and review it and make that like a once a month thing, the monthly product review with affiliate links in it but clearly marked click here to buy. It has to be a thought out review, maybe a couple of screen shots and a final result you got from using it. Post and hope!

Obviously you can still find it for free if you google the file. Now it's part of the paid membership. The PDF tutorial is really, really good but if you don't have any experience with Git (like me who has only used svn) some of it will be confusing. Just after they released the PDF they made a 5 part video tutorial to go with the PDF. You'd be amazed how many people bought that video series.

They'll help you place and maximize, and they pay by impression rather than clickthru. Apparently with the right partner you can get $2/cpm or better.

Content is mostly tech news, software and OS reviews, tips and some downloads. I spent the first few months throwing money at it, getting really nice custom design, paying for quality custom-written content etc.

                                                                                                                                                                                          Today the site gets around 45k uniques per day with over 700k pageviews (forums included). Posts get loads of comments and forums are very active with 30k members (after a recent inactive member/spammer purge). Honestly, I don't make shit from the site. It covers its expenses and that's about it. Most of the income is from paid plugs and prepaid ad spots. I've tried adsense but didn't make enough to justify cluttering up the content pages and forums with adsense blocks.

                                                                                                                                                                                          I've tried numerous affiliate programs and bombed out on every one. How can I make money off tech savvy people?
