How can I monetize this..

11 replies
I have a simple website that is related to iphone5(Win iPhone 5!), it was published before it was released, it wasn't getting much hits until the first week it was released.

However with only a few basic SEO setups, I'm able to get approx 50 constant daily hits...

With only adsense, I'm not sure howelse I can make money out of those hits who are eager to win iphone5s.

Any suggestions?

      Pre warning... You are infringing on Apples copyright and the site could be taken down any second. Just something to keep in mind.

    I see that you are offering FREE i Phones, but how does this work? Also, do you have more pages. I am stuck on the main page. Apple might try to get you to take down the picture, but I am not sure how that infringes on em. That is a question for a lawyer not me.

    OK as for peerfly, I use this service. They are very helpful to me. I am able to resolve issues. That is a good thing and they do not assign me a rep. I hate went a service ties you down to one rep. It is hate to get things done and people move.

    Why are you thinking like so. iPhone is not a factor at all. If you have good content and good source of traffic of course adsense will run smoothly. But only 50 hits is actually nothing to get something from adsense. Better you should try out this killer ways -

    Hi, cool site! I would suggest running any iPhone related CPA offer, there are many networks out there, and many such offers too.

    Also PPV works for me for such promotions on a thin site. Works better for me than PPC if you ask me. If you want to stick to free search traffic, would suggest you boost up the content, add some reviews and such.

    Hi Ellie, I'm really sorry to be the "bearer of bad news", but unfortunately this is terribly dangerous, because you're using in your domain-name a trademark of a company whose reputation for relentless legal pursuit of such matters, if/when brought to their attention, is just about second to none, I think.

    Among the things that can and regularly do happen, when the trademark owner discovers such breaches of trademark, are:-
    • They can tell you take it down
    • They can take the domain from you
    • They can take from you any money you've ever made through the site
    • They can sue you for additional damages for flagrantly breaching their legal rights
    Don't imagine that because "you're helping them to make sales" (as is often the case) they'll decide to be lenient. That isn't how it works: the point is that owning a trademark effectively confers obligations as well as rights on the holder: when it comes to trademark renewal time, if it can be shown that they've knowingly failed to protect their rights with regard to the trademark, that can be held against them.

    Some companies, for this reason, have the policy of pursuing all breaches of the trademark routinely and without reference to the motives/purposes/circumstances of the defendant.

    (I'm not a lawyer, nor even available to play one on TV).

      Could you add some examples of URL's that have been taken down or sued by Apple? There are 1,000's upon 1,000's out there and yes, if apple wants them they can take them but what evidence is there that they do that? Certainly if you have an apple sucks they will go after you....any other examples come to mind?

    Someone before me already mentioned that
    You need to put a subscriber form on your site
    to build an email list!

    Then you can send emails with different offers on how to
    get free "something" related to your main niche
    of course. You can think about creating blog page.

    I have to tell you that Adsense would be the last thing that I would put on any site there is so many better methods that pay a hell of a lot more then Google.

    You can you different kind of methods like Bidvertiser or text link ads they are one of my favorite to work with.
    I haven't seen the site but maybe you can do reviews of a bunch of different phones and of course be a affiliate for all of them threw amazon, and CJ.or whatever affiliate network that you choose ..
