How much money 10,000 hits per day can generate?

[sbs]

Friends,

Any idea from your experience how much money 10,000 hits per day can generate? I know it depends on the content and keywords but just assume its general discussion/news site. (US based hits)

I am looking for just rough numbers. Any ballpark numbers?

Also, what do you think about the income displayed on websiteoutlook.com is genuine? Looks like it display more number of page views for any site that whats in reality. I have a website where it shows 140 page views but when I use google analytics it just show me <5 page views. Why is this difference?

I roughly make $100 a day,parking, on 6,000-10,000 visitors (zeroclick model)

 

[smurge]

smurge, is it a .com? and niche? maybe you can pm me the domain name, if that's not too much to ask

cheers.

Hey the domain is hitfindweb (net) . It looks like it was a search engine of some sort in the past.

It's really puzzling to the rest of us that for a domain with 1 backlink only and you don't use redirect traffic either as it's bad traffic, so how can it get search engine traffic day after day when it's only a parked page? A one million dollar question I guess?

btw, thanks for sharing all the info so far. I find it very challenging and interesting.

I'm not sure to be honest. When I analyzed the domain the compete traffic was pretty awesome. For $6.50 I could take a shot on it just based on the 12 month compete history and stats.

When I view the referral it says 99.6% is type in traffic. As I stated before, I think this was a search engine someone was trying to develop but failed or something happened and let it go.

Hope this helps to solve the mystery. Let me know if you need anything else.

"hits" may mean nothing. How many unique visitors? Where do they come from? How many pages per visit?

Assuming the hits are real organic visits, not paid traffic, on a general news site where you have no special "hook" and the ads displayed may be lower value, I think you would be lucky to get $10 to $30 a day from 10,000 visits. I'd peg the CTR at close to 1% and would expect a lot of the clicks to be very low value ($0.10 to 0.30 per click).

Of course, that is just a guess.

It just a numbers game. Reduce the CTR to 5% = $50 a day, and reduce the EPC to $0.05 = $25 day. It up to you to decide what CTR your hits will have because you will know the quality of the traffic (we have no idea). It's the same with the keywords/EPC. It was just an example for you to work from. And I did say it could be as low as $0

Forums generally get very low clicks. Financial keywords usually pay better than General News keywords.

I really find it very exciting when I hear some parked domains can get so many visitors, so would you by any chance mind telling us how that can be achieved or can it not be mentioned?

Hey Ibidu,

It can be mentioned. I bought the site through pending delete process. The traffic was already built in and I just got lucky to grab it. Honestly I was shocked when I parked it because the next morning I woke up and there we,re 10,000k visitors. It's been holding steady around 6000 - 10,000 visitors now.

My account manager at domainsponsor handles the ad's . He told me the domain was blackilisted with google (had no clue it was) but the traffic could be monetized with yahoo or zeroclick. He set it up on zeroclick and that was that.

Hope this helps and feel free to ask anything else.

Hi Smurge,

Thanks for sharing all the info.

I am just a bit puzzled why the owner let this domain expire?

I'm puzzled as well. What's crazy is on the day this one expired about 30 others did as well. So, I'm not sure who got them all but there is a lot of traffic that was floating around that day.

 

[Name Trader]

OK Lets assume a 10% CTR and $0.10 EPC. That would be $100/day. But of course it may fluctuate between $0 and $500/day.

 

[snicksnack]

if it is traffic you buy from one of the "buy cheap traffic" websites, the revenue will rather be ZERO than anything else.

 

[snicksnack]

lot's of fake traffic around. many providers offer 10K visitors for like $10 or so.

@Kingword - I dont have the traffic yet but I am just trying to estimate the revenue against the effort required.

@ Green Moon - I think your analysis looks genuine. The one by @stub may be more on optimistic side.

If you are going to buy traffic for a parked website, for sure you are going to loose your money. I have thought of that too, but didn't try, as the paid traffic is coming from iframes, bots, or link pages (iframes).
In all cases, clicks will be zero, and ad view counter as well.

I am not trying to buy traffic. I am trying to build an idea and wanted to caluclate ROI on effort involved.

 

[seotocash]

If you generation 10,000 hits per day for parking account,you can generation $5000-$10000.hoho

Maybe this is the wrong place to ask this but I setup a site in January and tweaked it - at first it had only a total monthly unique visits 187 and now the info is below:

Total Pages 119753
Total Visits 48581

But I am not gaining any revenue even though I have Google Adsense setup. Could someone let me in on what I should do to better gain the advantage?

Thank you.

Cheers,

Thanks Stub for the quick reply - any advice as to what affiliates I could use. I appreciate your response.

Thanks.

That very much depends on what your site is about - the more relevant to your site's content the better.

Allposters.com has a nice affiliate program, with a hefty commission rate. If there is any way to make use of their individual poster links and links, that would be a way to go.

I believe they also have a two tier program, though it has been a while since I checked. So, sites dealing with online revenue, etc., might be able to generate additional income for you from other people's traffic.

I'm not really an affiliate whiz, but I agree with ibidu above. It depends on what your website is about. One general affiliate program would be Amazon.

 

[scriptinstaller]

well 10.000 daily unqiues with 20% CTR and a $5 RPC would generate , let me guess , its very hot man : $10.000 daily !
the problem is how to generate as much traffic
PS: one of my domains got up to $30 rpc but doesnt have too much traffic, less than 50 daily do the math

I had a second read of that, are you sure your earnings from Adsense is none at all? If that is the case then your ads must not be showing as it would be impossible to have no earnings with those number of PV's.

I did have some earnings but very low and then Google gave me a minus on them for some reason. I am going to another route. I emailed them and asked why did they only show that I was getting 313 PV a month when my stats program shows well over 45000.

Seriously at this point I can't stand Google. I don't think they calculations are correct.

Any pointers on how to monetize this better would be a great relief. Thanks for your reply.
