How much are you making from your forums?

[Ascent]

How much revenue/money are you generating from your forums?

Also, post how big your forum is so we know how much a forum your size is making.

First thread, ftw.

Even though I have ads on them...Im making nothing. I would enjoy making some money from my forum though.

Don't have any advertising yet on my forum, so can't say.

However if AdvertHelix does get off to a good start I may signup with Google Adsense on it.

So far, nothing 😛

I don't need to make money for my forum as I just enjoy having one 🙂

I have made around 70$ through adsense on my websites, not on forums though, i'd find that kind of annoying.

In the last 3 months I have made £120 through courses run on my forum and about £100 though supporting memberships in 5 months.

Same as other people. I did not make a forum to get revenue, I made it as a hobby. I get next to no revenue, unless it's someone wanting to advertise on the forum. I used to do adverts from company but they went bust and I haven't got a new one since lol

Like others have said, I didn't make my forum to get revenue, just mainly as a hobby.

Though I have made some money from adsense.

Adsense is a load of crap. I got 1p for a click a few minutes ago. 1P!!! I could make more than that if I looked around my room for 5 seconds.

So far I have made 16p today :lol:

 

[Watch Me Sink]

Just wait until they ban you for no reason at all. All 16p will go down the drain (er in the CEO's wallet).

 

[Cloverfield]

They better not do.

Adsence ban you after the first week that they notice your making money :lol:

Only if they believe you are doing something that is against their terms and conditions. They want their publishers to make money with Adsense ads. The more profit the publishers make, the more Google makes.

No they ban you if your traffic to click ratio is high... more than 5% and your banned. 😉

It's classed as cheating. 😛

Adsence fail so much. 🙁

 

[Fergal]

... more than 5% and your banned...

I'd like to hear more about that, where did you get the 5% figure?

I get the 5% figure from many friends having adsence and being banned when their traffic to click ratio became higher than that percent.

🙂

After about 6-7 of my friends stating that I kind of came to that figure myself and is my proof, as they did not cheat or even ask friends to click the ads.
