So I run a discussion board that's in the adult niche. I get a decent amount of traffic and I think it can do rather well now. It has been online for sometime now but never really motetized the thing. I did try out AFF and its subordinates but realized that it was not going to convert due to the fact that the pervs that come to the site arent really interested in that kind of stuff. Its a kinky sex site that deals with one aspect of porn. Im kinda surprised myself to see so many takers for it considering that I opened it up for the sake of fun.

So now the time has come to monetize it. I was thinking text link ads or something. But im a noob at this. Your advice will be reciprocated with boobies.
 


How much is a decent amount?

Anyway, you might try a paysite that's perfectly targeted to your traffic. If it's a really obscure thing they can still convert.

I'd personally do a custom AFF ad that specifies that they can look for a girl who is into whatever the forum is about. It doesn't matter if that's not true, these sites hook guys once they're in the door and joined up for free.

An escort site might be worth it too. Something along the lines of "What are the chances you'll meet a girl who will do X? Why not indulge with one of our girls?".

Make them very aware that they have options to pursue their fetish in real life. It's ok to seem condescending. The more pathetic they feel for needing it the better.

The thing is that most of this traffic comes from southeast asia and Im sure as hell people are not going to pay for things when they get redirected to a pay site.

I need something like adsense or something that offers payouts per click.
 
Can you elaborate on the site a bit? I have a dating website focusing on Thailand. Perhaps there's something there that we can do.

Is your traffic SEA locals or is it expats living in SEA? Is the site in English?

Could sex "toys" be a vertical for your audience? Or "other" accessories?

Like others said, maybe find an Asian Dating site.

Oh, don't discount an eBook that could er...umm...enhance their pleasure/technique. lol

If your niche is anything like this ABDL there are several things you could do to monetize it.

As mentioned above, got to GFY Webmaster Board or JustBlowMe.com Adult Webmaster Forum to sign up and then ask around in the forums.
 
A quick:

P.S. Don't totally discard the idea of promoting some pay sites related to your niche if you have a substantial amount of traffic. If you get only .5% of 10,000 visitors to go sign up, that would be 50 x say $20 = $1,000. so it could be worth promoting. Just be sure that "you" check the sites out first before promoting them. Don't push something just based on the payout.

Hell, if you can find sites that they really like and sign up for, you could put a site review section on your site and then promote several good ones to your people.

Just because they are leeching free stuff from you right now doesn't mean that they wouldn't shell out some money for a pay site that may be a little more involved with the subject than your site. You could be the "authority" that weeds through the crap to offer them the gems.

Just another way to look at it.
 
So where's the tits?

Oh, you might consider pushing a few of these... Jimmy Jane Platinum w/ Diamond encrusted ring....retails $3250.00

Affiliates get 10% = $325 per sale. Plus after you get paid, you can encourage them by telling them to "go fuck themselves" (in style of course)

LOL, south east asian forum traffic has to be some of the worst traffic imaginable, to monetize that site you are gonna need super low bandwidth costs and atleast 10k a day in visitors. Good luck
 
The fuckup is I know these people. They would not spend a buck for anything. The site is like a discussion board for members to express their sexual preferences, lifestyles, kinks and so on. 99p of the traffic is Indian, Pakistani, Bangladeshi, Nepali and so on. The traffic is good. I have tried some trial and error with promoting stuff related to the sex industry. The thing is that most of the the folks at the site are horny little motherfuckers that want to find a free fuck. Its kind of on the lines of WorldSexGuide.Com but not so elaborate.

At this point of time, I think CPC would do well. Any recommendations for a good service?
And for the help.. Boobies As Promised..

No offense to anybody but many bars, restaurants, and hotels here in Thailand won't even allow them in.

Also, to clarify, you said:

India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Nepal are not generally considered South East Asia. Typically SEA is considered to be Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar/Burma, Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, Brunei, East Timor, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Singapore. Depending on how liberal your definition of the region is, it might include Southern China, Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan.

India, Pakistan, Nepal, etc are very clearly East Asia.
