AdSense on football forum?

[1901gt]

For a football forum with 1000+ members and 400 unique visitors a day (mainly South East Asia traffic), how can I earn some good revenues from it other than by advertising? Any help from experts here? Will Adsense be good for Asia traffic?

Forums are not that much good with adsense but still you can try it or some other programs like it ... The best way to earn is to sell ad space on your forum

generally speaking, asian traffic is not worth a whole lot. i'd suggest you put some kind of cpm monetization if you can, until you find advertisers to sponsor the forum.

CPM is good if you have loads of traffic and those traffic are manly from USA, Canada or UK. You can earn something with AdSense if your forum niche is high paying and you have loads of UV. Otherwise its really hard. You have to try and see everything like Affiliates, Direct Ad Sales etc.

Earning are forums are not that much.
i think it will be a good idea to have some blog with your forum and place Adsense on both of these.
this will increase your earning.

Why don't you try tvprocessing(dot)com,, They have a number of banners that you could put up to promote Football.. the payout's are fairly good..here are a few examples:
watch-football-online(dot)tv
and
watch-football-tv(dot)com

I would suggest running affiliate programs for ticket resellers (stubhub, ticketsnow, etc) ... they can be quite lucrative depending how many sports events are in the region that your visitors come from.

Another idea would be to integrate eBay auctions that sell sports memorabilia - the ebay partner network pays 50% of their sale fees in commission and a variable rate for new eBay members you refer.

Have a look at Commission Junction to see many event ticket affiliate programs.

Cheers,

Could you sign up for affiliate programs and sell related goods and services? You might think about:

- replica kits
- memorabilia
- tickets
- gifts
