Ads. url converters, pop ups, etc. What do you use??

[indie2industry]

I'm just curious.. Ive tried a little of everything and I just want to know what works best for generating revenue other than donations and subscriptions..

I use Linkbee *** removed ***

I see a ton of Adsense mods also. What do you use?

i just buy websites that have a lot of members, merge/join them with my major one, and that's it... more members to contact for incomes -- whatever the goal of the income.

i request sponsors to finance parts of my sites, i never apply banners, people never click them anyway. a sponsor is more efficient, as you can charge a lot more, the company if more interested to be seen than to be clicked aynway...

I use adsense, I've used it for about 3 months and it's utterly rubbish, redundant, useless and through my own experience feel ripped off providing links for google in places on my website for the past 3 months for 1 dollar, They've had much more worth in advertising from me. Nexy is right, nobody clicks, and as stated, adsense isn't worth it. I'll be removing adsense from my site soon. Go with a sponsors (something I should do) as I had a ton of sponsors I declined in the past which now I regret not doing which will definitely pay a higher return.

Like I said, adsense is terrible.

WHOA!!!!! $1!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'll stick with the system I'm using. lol. @ least it brings in around $1-$2 a day. And I've only been using this for 3 weeks now.
Sponsors is a great idea.. May have to do that.

Many sites are not optimized for Adsense.
Many sites lack traffic - they need SEO.
Many sites lack content.

Adsense if used properly can bring in a good revenue stream. But, it shouldn't be your only form of revenue.

I recommend having direct and indirect (ie. adsense) advertisers.

Adsense is crap - i even brough SEO and nothing changed.I even paid for someone to implement it all into my sit properly but still about 1-2$ per day.
I removed all adsense code now as to me it simply is not worth the hazzle.

Adsense works just fine for me - it pays all our monthly server bills, and we have enough left over to run competitions now and then.

actually, with a site with no content, 1/2$ per day is excellent... do you think Ads will pay you a 10$/h salary ?!.. serious, come on...

Subscriptions is what pays for my host each month.
