One way to make $ off of adsense is to offer upgrades that include no ads.
Sorry, you lost me on that one. How can you make money from ads if your not using them?

Simple, using XenForo's subscription plan, offer the ability to those who do pay a subscription fee, whether its monthly, quarterly or annually what not, hide the ads for that usergroup. You lose the money off those folks clicking the ads but could make it up in the subscription fees.
That is actually a very good idea .One way to make $ off of adsense is to offer upgrades that include no ads.
Or even better ads, such as deep discount specials just for the people that upgrade.One way to make $ off of adsense is to offer upgrades that include no ads.
You missed some number there?Mine fluctuates but I typically make around a month Adsense and $150 a month Amazon. Highest adsense month was around $725
Yea, that is good money though. I wish I could make that on any of my puny little sites lul.You missed some number there?
That site really isn't that big. You mention his thread count like it's an ungodly amount. When I've helped people earn money from adsense, I tell them to not put up any ads until they are getting roughly 2,000 uniques a day. Even then, you will only be making a few bucks here and there.I find it hard to believe myself some people are making so much money with AdSense, to the point they don't even need to work any other job to earn money. I'm not saying some don't earn good money from it, but I'm very sceptical about it all when people claim they are making this and that from it.
Sometimes I think people just say it trying to drive traffic towards their own site, joining asking questions there on how they do it. I've also got quite an interesting story below, I'm sure Mark won't mind me quoting him on this one.
Mark.B - who owns BCForums recently put Google AdSense Ads up about a month ago for a short while "as a test to see what could be earned from it". Now normally he runs an Ads Free community using vBulletin and his forum in question has over 80,000+ threads, with over a million posts listed. He told me he made pennies after a week or two putting AdSense up in place - so removed them all again soon after.
The test was a complete failure for him! He only did it to prove a point and see, if in fact he could earn good money using his community like people claim you can from Google AdSense.
With that many threads and posts listed all indexed well by Google. He should have been making more than that if your to believe what people claim they make with much less content listed on their forums. I understand that the Niche comes into play with regards to getting the best high paying advertisers wanting to put their ads via Google on your community to make you big money. But still, making pennies after a week or two with 80,000+ threads all showing AdSense ads?
Not often do you hear from people running a very large forum that it was a waste of time. Mark.B - is one of those who did come clean and was honest in saying he made nothing from it with his Big Board (and it is one). He wasn't trying any con anyone into joining, he admitted it was a waste of time for him personally making only pennies.
There are a lot of sites that offer user enhancements via paid subscriptions.Sorry, you lost me on that one. How can you make money from ads if your not using them?
Actually, over.I find it hard to believe that you are going to make a fair amount with just 30,000 page views. Maybe $20 a month.
I've been with Amazon since CDNow closed up shop, and Amazon took over their affiliate program. I hit some peaks where I was making hundreds per month, but with the economy it has slowed to a trickle. If you have a site that specializes in certain kinds of music, movies or books, consider setting up an Amazon A-Store. You can create your own product categories, listing Amazon products, and putting your own blurbs under them. It will take a lot of work to make it generate income, but visitors will be more likely to click (and hopefully buy) after seeing that you've put a good amount of effort into it.Sorry for taking this a little off-topic, but is anyone on Amazon Associates' program? I find it much better than Google Adsense in terms of bringing in money. The graphic banner widgets also look much better than the text-based Google Adsense Ads.
I use Chitika because some lame keeps reporting my bikini threads to Google and getting my adsense turned off.Offtopic
How is experiences of all people here about Chitika?. Someone say it is better than Adsense and some say it is very bad.
That's ridiculous! You can make reasonable Adsense $ with far less pageviews. Say, 20,000 to 30,000 pageviews a month.
So what ad placements do you recommend? To me it seems like that most admins use similar ad placements.More like 10 times that. It just depends on how you set up your Adsense and forum.
