How to monetize a website with 10,000 visits a day?

 

His owner wanted my advice on the matter, but I had to write to him saying I couldn't take the time of my life. With every minute of the day billed, it's hard not to sacrifice something (money or family). Still, I feel guilty for not taking the time. So to compensate I wrote these lines.

One of my most popular posts on this blog is on the topic of website monetization. So if I were to write an update on this topic, we could all win, although honestly, I'm not as interested in this topic as I was a few years ago.

The easiest way to monetize - Google Adsense

Few people will know or remember that my first startup, Coguan, was about this topic. In the post I linked to you above, I share my experience on this topic. When I started out, I started out like the vast majority of self-taught salespeople. I started a blog, signed up for Adsense and started logging in. It was attractive at the time, but at least in my opinion, it has lost its attractiveness at the time, although I can understand that for many it still is.

In the post linked above, I calculated data for a website with 100,000 monthly page views. In this example, we have 3 beats. At that time I estimated my monthly income at 150 euros. Since the current trend is downward, the site of this article (10,000 visits per day) could generate between 200 and 1,000 euros per month depending on the topic. This is such a wide range because the possible RPMs (revenue per mile) are also wide.

Find the right business model

I think the most attractive business models are those that don't just look for the obvious (Adsense in this case). I have seen several alternatives that can be implemented or even run in parallel depending on the type of search and the topic.

·        Implement a subscription model with membership: You can grant some type of access to exclusive content. Here, they largely depend on the ability and value you can bring in your niche topic.

·        E-book sales: If you can't create enough content to justify membership, you can also try occasional e-book sales, etc. Digital products are easy to create and manage.

·        Add an online store: If you want to complicate your life a bit, it might make sense to integrate your store with the products you stock or dropship.

·        Leads: This model attracts many SEOs, but very few implement it successfully. With changing laws and RPGD, this issue is complicated, but if you seek the advice of an attorney, you can begin to tackle it. Capture contacts and resell them to interested companies.

·        Create a sale: Another option is to sell the entire project. This will be created for sales, and many in the online marketing space do the same thing. If you don't know how to get proper performance, others know how.

10,000 hits a day won't do you much good if the topic isn't right. To the people who contacted me, it sounded like a multi-person project. If the owner is someone who builds this website in their spare time, the potential income is always welcome. If the objective is to get 2,000-10,000 euros a month, I think it will be more complicated and I will dedicate my time to other things, but it is only my opinion, I am less and less qualified because I am not very much here more world.

 

Wow, I feel better now. I hope that, although I have not gone over all the points in more or less detail, there are some points and clues that will help in making the decision. Let's go on and on, I had a stressful day today (for a change).
