I won't go much into detail, but we are seriously considering our options at this point.
Our gaming community has been around for several years (1998) but we lost a bunch of members with a move to a newer game.
We currently have around 90 members, 34 of which are active.
We are lucky to get 3 posts/day, and 1 registered/month.
I know it is a niche site, and that everyone has a gaming community these days, but it's so frustrating in the same instance.
Not only have I not made money on this, over the course of the past year, I have dropped over 2k for logo's, contests, etc with little to no improvement on things
Back in time i remeber i placed some ads at the top of and in the bottom of forumdisplay. I used colspan 5 to get the ad to span over all cells underneeth to get room for a big 728 size banner there. I went from 25USD to 60 USD a day by doing that. Its the best place on the entire board.
I have always wanted to know how to earn money from the website..
i have a website that have been running for almost 4 years now.
we have over 60k members and we have 2000 uniqe visits / day
but we don't do any kind of advertising actually never thought of doing so.

so how can someone revenue from such site ?
Can I take a look at your site? Interested in selling it?
I don't believe in ads. And thus is the reason I have made $0 a month. I am thinking if this continues, I might have to give up on my belife. I hate forums with ads, but hey, it keeps the forum itself going when members don't want to help support the site. Instead you drop nearly 500 bucks in 3 months to keep the forum up, and to try to get more people joining and involved. So yea... I am giving it another month, if I don't yeild around 50 bucks from donations, I will have no choice but to revert to ads.
Less than a year later I note that this site is now closed down! Not meaning to sound funny, but it can't have been doing quite as well the above makes out.
sorry only just seen your post. The club i was doing the promotion work was sold, refurbed and took a whole new angle. They did not want to continue working with me despite my promotional emails and event organisation giving the club the 2 busiest nights it has ever had, pulling in over 7000 people over 2 weekends (Making me nearly 14k in the process) . I have started a new site not long ago and im currently working with 3 promoters to build this site up to what my previous one once was
