What is the best way to monetize traffic

7 replies
One of my sites is ranking on the first page and I'm generating leads. It's in the plastic surgery niche where the avg cost for the procedure is about $5,000.
My site gets around 300 visitors per month.

My question is how to best monetize the traffic.
Do I sell individual leads and how much? I researched the web and came up short on how much to charge.
Or should I try to lease the site to them directly and how much to charge?

Thanks.

    I've done successful JV's like this:

    1. Contact the person you want to JV with and tell them that you got leads eager to buy what the business is selling.

    Tell them that you will forward the lead to him for 30% of the gross/net (gross is better for you) if that lead buys something. Tell him that you can do this as a test for a month and see if they want to continue later.

    2. Start forwarding the leads to your partner, either by phone (writing up their name on the phone and telling them to come into the store/clinic), or by email (just forward the contact info to your partner and have their sales people do the selling on the phone).

    3. Visit your new JV partner once a month to track the leads and sales, and get your share of the money.

    Cheers

    I would start with Adsense ads to monetize the traffic. Then, start testing out different ways to capture leads. Once you have grown your traffic and optimized your lead generation and have a steady supply, start contacting potential partners to sell them to.

    I would start to continue to grow your site first and get more traffic prior to monetizing it. Just my opinion.

    You can place your affiliate links and adsense in their. But you need to continue updating your website every now and them like creating unique contents. 300 visitors per month is not enough traffic to covert really well.
