Hey guys,
I run a Hip-Hop blog that I have been running on the side for about a year now. It gets about 4,000 views a day and about 1,700 uniques. Also 35% of all views are from international traffic. I just run it on the side because I like the music, but I definitely would like to make it more profitable. When ringtones were big, it was doing good, but now it is really dragging a long.

I have been starting to using Linkbuck for the links which helps. And still looking for a good banner ad for the right side, Chedda isn't holding it down too well lol. Also I am in search of ringtone offer that converts good. Any ideas or feedback the site is..

Thanks
 


In all honesty, if you are getting 1,700 uniques a day and 50K + uniques a month for an old blog, it's not the blog that is unsuccessful, it's you.

Edit: Meaning, find a way to turn the traffic into profit, use your head and make it turn into profit.

BTW- What do you classify as profitable?

I just check it out... But instead of seeing an ad or a banner, I saw a note saying: "page not found"

...So sorry.. I can't help.. :(
 
I have had auto blogs, blogs that scrape content from other blogs and post it as my own, make $10+ a month with adsence. Your just an idiot.
 
You definitely need better ads. The site content looks good, but I would redesign it. Something super flashy that stands out. Consider putting up some dating ads. I am not 100% certain how this fits your demographic, but I have a feeling with the age group you're targeting, you would do good. Try friendfinder or fling.com and give em a shot.
 
Try building quality backlinks for your site. Increase the number of outbound links.

Also I think you really need to change your theme. The simpler the better.
