Monitizing a site with 10,000 uniques per month

I have a "learn to play "XXXXX" instrument" site that is getting about 10,000 unique visitors per month. Here are the actual stats from the last 30 days. ALL traffic is through google.

Visits: 10,973
Uniques: 9,214
Page Views: 26,841
Avg duration 02:41
Bounce Rate: 49.21%

It's currently monitized with adsense and a clickbank product. (through an auto-responder). I get about 6-7 news people signing up to my list each day and the list is currently at 165 (I only started it a month ago)

Revenue last 30 days
Adsense: $67
Clickbank: $109.89 (5 affiliate sales)

With that amount of traffic, I definitely think I can do MUCH better. Any suggestions?

The site does not have a squeeze page, it's an informational site only...very passive.

Thanks

Alex

    You can do much better. Develop a product unique to the interests of your visitors. Make it personal, and allow purchasers to have some access to you (online).

    I have a website with specialist visitors, and sell my ebook for $42. I also offer a little bit of free expert help. When I was at your traffic level I was making about $1500 a month.

    Finally, get rid of adsense. It will distract from your core product which you need links for on every page. From there on in it just becomes a numbers game.

    Best of luck.

    I suggest you to develop strategy to build
    an email list even further! If your site have only subscriber form
    beside of course your content; and no other links to
    other sites (Clickbank or Adsense) you can expect
    increase in number of your subscribers. So maybe you should focus
    on follow up emails strategy just to build more trust!
