Hi Guys,

I have a site which posts videos of trending topics and over the last 30 days its gone from <100 visits per day to 1000+ and growing by around 100 per day - something just went viral and I got over 400 hits in around 30 mins.

Country visits look like this:

Country / Territory Visits Avg. Visit Duration
United States 7,715 00:00:19
United Kingdom 816 00:00:43
Canada 636 00:00:16
Germany 350 00:00:10
Australia 264 00:00:18
Japan 208 00:00:30
Italy 181 00:00:19
France 177 00:00:09
Philippines 170 00:00:47
Brazil 156 00:00:19

I can see that the visitor doesn't stay long on the site - which I find strange due to it being a video site?

These are the stats for the last 30 days:

Visits: 13,586
Unique Visitors: 12,941
Pageviews: 16,684
Pages / Visit: 1.23
Avg. Visit Duration: 00:00:21
Bounce Rate: 86.08%
% New Visits: 95.20%

And these are the stats for the last 30 days:

81.70%Search Traffic
10,854 Visits
2.98%Referral Traffic
396 Visits
15.31%Direct Traffic
2,034 Visits

I added adsense to the site which started very promising making around £5 per day and increaseing - but the site got banned due to some adult content (which was trending) - luckly my adsense account didnt get banned.

I have tried adding a pop-up with a little Yes or No question which redirects to a CPA offer ($500 amazon gift card) which has been unsuccessful

The site is What Is Trending | A collection of the most trending videos

Anyone with any ideas how I can make money with this - or how much it would be worth if I flipped it.

Also forgot to mention that the alexa ranking is dropping quickly - dropped 1,500,000 in a week and is currently at 3,500,000 which I think is good for a site a little over a month old.

I appreciate any comments

    If your site is a video site then I suggest switching to a different theme that is designed for video sites. That default TwentyEleven theme looks awful to be totally honest.

    You've turned a viral video site into a blog, and that is why nobody stays on your site very long or returns to your site.

    When they land on your site, they should immediately have a bunch of selections to make of cool videos, featured videos. Your site gives them one option and they have to scroll down for more.
