    Hello, i want to present my project.

    I manage a website of Free images hosting. The site is online for almost 2 years and the last three months i optimazed the script and i had an increase of 300% of my website (as popularity). Every day the site is growing, i'm very happy about it.

    Let's start with some numbers. My site allows Hotlinking, you will notice it from numbers.

    I have 40.000.000 hits every day. What is an hit? For example if an image is posted on this forum, all people that request the image are 1 hit. In conclusion is a simple HTTP request where the user is not directly on my website.

    I consume like 4-7 TB of Bandwitdh every day. It is killing me, sincerly.

    Every day i have like 500-1000 unique users. 10% of users are "phone user".

    Like 5.000-10.000 page views every day.

    As you can see my site is not a lot visited but is tapped cause of hotlinking. Now i was thinking to start to monetizate something, at least to pay the hosting.

    I added finally chitika banners and phone banners. But for now i saw only impressions and not clicks. I red that a lot of chitika users had the same problem and i must only wait.

    Now i want to tell you some advice to improve my service and how can i monetizate something (if it's possible) with this website.

    Thank you for your help,
    Cheers
