Is there Something Wrong I am doing

classiqa · 01-29-2012, 12:00 PM

Hi,

I have a free classifieds website classiqa.com and since almost 2 years after working on it, I am getting only 1$ a day.

Average traffic on a day is 750 to 850
PG 3
Alexa ranking : 93K

and still I am making 1$ a day.

I dont know why, is it the quality of the traffic I am getting. I get around 100 organic visitors per day...

Your suggestions will help me gain some confidence.

If you are just using adsense mainly then I am not surprised its so low.

If you are using other monetisation methods I would try switch them up a little bit to see if you can increase your CTR.

Yes the only source of income is adsense...

Uhm, I dont understand you. At first you say you get 750 to 800 visitors per day, but then you say you only get 100 visitors per day. If you get 100 visitors per day and the CPC is around 1, then it's quite logic that you earn 1$ per day. It's not bad
And ofcourse, look up your adsense placement.

Some keywords just don't convert and pay out as well. It doesn't sound as fun, but a lot depends on your kw-research.

The problem is obviously the target of your visitors.

Adsense is not the cash cow it once was. Better check the barnyard for new 'cash cows' I think

You might want to sell links/advertising yourself.

why don't you sell your space and put ads on your site.This will increase your earnings. Besides that you should do a bit of backlinking and blogging so that you get more traffic.

Where is your traffic coming from? Is it targeted traffic? If you can drive people to your site that actually want what you are offering, or have an interest in it, you will find the sales and conversions are usually a lot better.
