    Yeah, we'd need to see your site to see what the reason for the lack of conversions are. Not one click from 2400 views.

    Are you using adsense?

    Without seeing your site here's 2 recommendations:

    1 Focus on getting traffic that's likely to take your desired action
    example: product name keywords

    2 Test out other monetization methods, your current 1 is obviously not working. So if you're trying to sell a product consider doing something that requires less from your website visitors like CPA or Adsense

      I can see one problem right off the bat and that is you don't do what is asked of you or even give a clue that you understand what people are asking you.

      You asked for help and you will get help here, but if you dont even read peoples answers and provide the information requested to help you, then you will never earn that first $1

      So let me ask you one more time

      We would love to give you some advice and help you, but we really need to see your website

      So to take the first step please post your website address below, once you have done that you will be one step closer to making your first dollar online,

      Kickin it on Amazon

    Try using CPA banners and affiliate banners as an alternative to Adsense.

    Much better money to be made there.

    And like everyone else is saying, its kind of hard to come up with possible solutions if we can't see the site in question.

    1. If the site is OK, there's a problem with traffic or niche.
    2. If traffics are targeted, there's a problem with site or niche.
    3. If both traffic and site are OK, there's a problem with niche.

    Traffic = Are you getting targeted traffic.
    Site = Are you giving an enough exposure to monetizing method through the contents and layout of site?
    Niche = Is it well converting niche for other internet marketers?

    This is not a healthy way of thinking .
    You should think big if you want to make something.
    FOcus that your site is newbie friendly and everything is easy to find.
    Also you shouldn't put too many affiliate links on one page .
    Is important to keep a clean look.
    Good luck

    Here's an idea.

    Contact webmasters in your niche, tell them that you've got a site with your visitor stats etc.

    Ask them if they're interested in advertising a banner/link/ad on your site for $1 for a month.

    There you go... your first dollar.

    Honestly,

    That is a very hard niche.. You might get a lot of people coming in, but it is hard to convert as people prefer to go offline and make their final decision.

    To tell you honestly, I am not sure what is the focus of your website i.e to promote/or to sell/ or to brand ? ?. For me it looks "messy" and it turns me off.

    If it's the site in your contact information in your public profile...

    It's very busy looking, with a huge number of advertisements, it doesn't 'feel' like there's much reason for me to buy what you're 'recommending" You "recommend" every link, so it seems like there is no real meaning to the recommendations.

    As for why you're not making money, part of it is likely because everything you have that I see on the site appears to require a PURCHASE by the visitor for you to earn anything.

    That's one of the advantages of advertisements like adsense and similar programs, you don't have make a sale. You get paid if someone clicks one of the ads.

    The products are all around one theme, but there's so little reason for someone to buy right away. To top that off, link in the first post is malformed, and ends up sending the visitor right back to the same page.

    I'm not saying this to be critical, but these are the types of things that I think will need some attention.

    The first thing one sees on your site are random ads for various things from tattoos to a kindle. I think it would be better to focus on your topic and dump the other ads.

    Also, the articles should be at the top so you're offering something of value first, and then links later.

    Last but not least...your articles are not well-written so they do not read well. Because of this your site doesn't seem credible.

    (just my opinion, of course)

    Thanks for help I know and i understand that the niche is hard becaseu the people comes online for infos ,about tattoos more than to buy anything.

    i sorta figured it out it is a informative web site more than a website to make money or focused on a problem that someone has to solve.

    I tried with one product and didnt work so i put more products and did not work either.I sorta wished to see if i can make a dollar from it before give the website up.

    May be i should go back to put on interesting posts and takes off all the products and just try adsense at this point and see if with it i can make cents.

    Yes im honest i know i cannot make 200 dollars a day with that website.
    Everywhere people say ,make 400 dollars overnight ,and a lot of BS,

    I think i need to focus on niches where the people can have answers more than this kind of niche.

    Health ,or How make money or how quit smoking...this kind of things,Im sorta lost may be more than how to make the website i should have thought before WHAT im gonna promote ,can this be usefull ,and now i reliaze that a tattoo less or more doesnt change your life,,,while a book on how to solve your bad breath problems could be a lot more useful to people looking for answers.

    Your web site link eluded me, but apparently it's for Tattoos. Just for kicks I checked, compete.com says the biggest site, tattoojohnny.com gets 400k to 700k visitors a month, sometimes there's something to learn from the way the big boys are monetizing their sites, his home page has a couple of generic ad network banners unrelated to Tattoos, found a related product or 2 you could buy from the site.

    I see a lot of the high traffic, moderate buying potential sites, like photoshop forums brokering banner space on BuySellAds.com, high traffic is the key there.

    • Okay. It's rife with what look like affiliate links surrounded by a tiny bit of content.

      If your mission is "how to find the best custom tattoo for you", you have to first prove you're an authority on the subject. Once you do that, then you can monetize. Right now it's scattershot, like you're hoping someone will stumble, their finger will hit a key and you'll get a random commission.

      Since OP didn't answer I'll take a guess.

      I could be wrong but he might be looking at stats and viewing hits. With all the graphics loading each one will register a "hit" and OP probably visits his site often getting a lot of hits every time. Not to mention the hundreds he will get by all of us visiting.

    Something has to grab the users attention! and really has to scream "LOOK AT ME!!!"

    All I see when I go to your website is the butterfly, some banners on the side, and then a bunch of posts. Nothing really sticks out to me at all.

    Not saying you should change anything, but if it were my site here's what I'd do.

    1. I'd want my visitor to focus there attention on a focal point, something I really want them to see. Usually a large banner to the top right with a big red arrow does the trick. Maybe your tattoo removal fader banner could be increased, thrown up on the top but include a red arrow pointing to it.

    2. I'd also make everything a darker color on the outside, so that the readers is focused on the center of your blog formatted website.

    Classy Tattoos.NET should be in big bold letters across the top with some nifty little logo. You have to brand yourself. I mean you're ranking #2 in Google for Classy Tattoo's, so you obviously know what you're doing as far as SEO goes. Then again the competing pages is only 11,600..not a ton to compete with but still GREAT JOB!

    You have a $0.57 CPC. That's really not a lot as far as making adsense money goes, especially with only 1,300 per month search volume. And you really aren't soaking up all 1,300 searches per month since only 40% of the 1,300 searchers click the first link.

    Regardless, you're still getting traffic!

    You need to TEST, TEST, TEST!

    Throw some adsense here and there. Make the color scheme blend in with your text and main website colors so that it looks natural. Because as far as advertisements go, when people see something stand out they know that you really really really want them to click it. So a defense guard goes up. So just make sure to make it look natural and more welcoming.

    Also if I read correctly you put your Aweber account on hold. If you're tight on finances then that's okay. Still capture them as a lead by say sending them to a facebook fan page.

    THIS IS FREE!

    Just set up an IFrame landing page and say Click the like button to receive exclusive access to Classy Tattoo's .Net. Then give them a hint of what they'll get "exclusive releases, newest tattoos, etc"

    Now what this does is not put them on a list, but this puts them on facebook and you now have them as a fan on your page and everytime you make a new post, they'll see that and potentially click your link.

    And since people would rather be on facebook rather than checking their email, you're more likely to get more people looking at your status updates. Which means potentially more traffic to your site.

    It's better to have repeat people visit your site and have them tell their friends, then to just get one visitor from all of your Google traffic and to then let them get away.

    By not having a facebook fan page, you're leaving money on the table.
    By not having adsense integrated, you're leaving money on the table.
    By not directing your viewers to certain focal points on your page, you're generating a higher bounce rate.

    Those are just a few things I would do.

    Hope it helps give you some ideas!

    cheers!

    One clear call to action. That's all you need - make sure the landing page / main traffic page just has one clear call to action on it that you ask people to make. If you're presenting them tons of different links or choices they don't take ANY so narrow it down to one e.g. CLICK HERE for this, or OPT IN for that etc.
