Almost 4,000 uniques a day, what to do?

36 replies
I just started getting almost 4,000 unique visitors a day on my celebrity blog. It's growing everyday. It's not an auto blog but something I edit manually myself.

Now that the traffic is building I need some ideas. How can I make my blog into a community? I want to make regular people famous somehow I need some ideas. Also How do I make money? I have dating banners that get traffic and no signups.

I tried getting approved to a couple of CPA networks but I was denied. Any easy CPA networks to get approved at? What are some ad options that would appeal to this audience?

    You could also try grabbing videos of people on youtube who are uploading regular videos of themselves singing, dancing and what not. Maybe try to conduct a couple of interviews with them as well via online, this way you can try to gain of their viewers as well. Ensure you have your own youtube account to upload the interviews to gain subscribers.

        celebrity blog? I think your blog can be made into advertising media. That's better. However, back to the characteristics of your visitors. what they need?.

          I was going to say the same thing. Use some adsense, add some CPA banners, build a list giving away something or offering some type of celebrity news update. Then promote clickbank products in the niche. One product that may be good is the Celeb contact info data base. I think it pays 75% of like $27.

          Theres a lot you can do with the site but it all comes down to your traffic the amount and exactly who these people are collectively.

            I believe all are great suggestions. See what your visitor demograhpics are to see about banner ads. Can drive your $ up. I like what shabit87

    Well, a good thing to do is to analyze the demographics. See the where, who and why of your traffic. Once you know the quality of the traffic to your blog you can determine a suitable product.

    Also, it isn't always necessary to put ads up. Why not create your own product? Even a newsletter subscription would be a good idea at some point.

    Everything revolves around determining the visitors and only then can you efficiently market a product.

    Seriously are you building a list of targeted custom.

    I do not care what ever your businees is. If you are not building some sort of list you are waisting your time.

    Hi Dave,

    Once you get up to a decent amount of visitors, monetization is fairly easy. First, you have to figure out what you can advertise, that you're readers will be interested in. This can be anything from some sort of information product, to just about anything on Amazon, though, I'd avoid CPA offers (you can advertise CPA offers in banner ads, just not directly on the site as a blog post).

    THEN, what you can do, is a couple different things... Of course, once you figure out what converts with your demographic, you can put up banner ads, but ALSO, you could do blog posts recommending various products/services that your readership will be interested in. The key...

    of course, will be well-written copy. You'll have to do blog posts recommending products that 1) Compel your audience to buy, 2) Don't look like an ad, 3) Genuinely offer your readership value within the post (that they don't have to purchase).

    As far as getting accepted into a CPA network is concerned why not try GlobalMatrixMedia. I got into it no problem and they have great offers.

    Attractive and suitable CPA banners adorning your sidebars can be a great thing which you can surely test out.

    what about finding cpa offers that celebs promote. Like the kardasian smile teeth whitening. Use offer vault to find out what offers are going around and which companies are offering which. Use things like kath heigel taking the ecig on the letterman show, and tell readers where they can get their free trial.

    You wont make money with affiliate marketing right away or direct advertising but 4000 uniques a day is A LOT. Add adsense, try another form of monetization and you can then monetize it the big way.

    One thing that some have done with high volume, commercially worthless traffic is to sell Facebook "likes" and/or Youtube Views by simply forcing visitors to watch a video or click a 'like' button in order to access some 'juicy' content.

    That is a last resort, when all else fails.

    Hi Dave,

    Congratulation on having 4,000 ++ unique visitors! You can monetize with a number of ways, such as Google Adsense & Kontera. I am pretty sure you can see some results immediately after you put them up Keep tweaking the color & layout of Adsense along the way to find out which one converts!

    Another great way is to build a list. Since you are getting decent amount of traffic everyday, you should use some autoresponders such as aweber or getresponse to capture the leads so that you can market to them (CPA, physical products from Amazon, etc...) over and over again.

    You need to create an enticing free gift related to your blog. Put the opt in box on the side bar so that people can see it on any posts. Also, use a pop up box (fade in with delay) to capture leads. Eventually, use a exit pop (just use a free WP plugin or some Java script coding...) to send the visitors to your offer (affiliate, CPA, Games, etc...)

    There are tons of CPA network around, just head over to offervault.com and find out more information. I've personally tried the following:

    1. Wolf Storm Media
    2. Blam Ads (content gateway)
    2. Peer Fly
    3. CPA Park
    5. Lead Bolt (content gateway)

    Just be honest when you fill up the form. These network don't need you to be a big guru or super affiliate that can send tons of traffic (but 4k unique visitors should be very impressive). However, you do need to think of a strategy to promote their offer. Think about how you would promote different horizons (i.e. gaming, free trial, zip/email submit, etc...). What soft of traffic would you be focusing? PPC, SEO, PPV, etc...If you have great content, content locking with BlamAds or Leadbolt can be very lucrative. You just need your visitors to fill up their zip / email to access your content!

    After you fill up the form, follow up with an email. You can also phone them up so that, this will be the quickest way to get approved. However, do some preparation before you phone them. CPA network love people to promote their offers, as long as you are not scammer.

      With that amount of traffic and the topic of your site ... you should try to monetize it with survey type of CPA offers, of the kind:

      "What would Charlie Sheen say to THAT?" and so forth...

      Try to build your own list in the process, so that you can accrue the visitors into a traffic recycling machine.

      Voila! Later on, sit back, send email, make money (kinda push button, heh?) lol

    I am brand shiny new to Warrior Forum but have been marketing online for several years now, currently working out of Northern Thailand - anyone else here in Chiang Mai ?

    Let me tell you why your site is not making any money.


    You have a site in a relatively popular niche with PR 0 ( 15 backlinks in total - one of which is from this forum) and showing Alexa 4,160,000


    You need to go check your stats - I understand that PR and Alexa are loose at times but usually they are good first pass indicators and when coupled with a quick look at links and common sense they are rarely totally off the chart.

    Sites in the Celebrity niche with 15 backlinks just don't get 4,000 unique visitors a day.

    Affiliate Networks that you could use to help montize your
    website. Commission Junction, Clickbank,Amazon and Neverblue are
    very good places to find affiliate products to promote.

    Also i seen some people mentioned Adsense...If i were you brothering
    with Adsense wouldn't be worth it because the amount of clicks you
    need to make a decent income is HUGE!!.

    If you do get alot of clicks...do you want to make $50 per month or
    $50.00 per sale with affiliate products.
