    Hello,
    Ive been using so far 2 different companies to get advertisers on my site. Google Adsense and currently im using another company which brings me some MmoRpg-related ads
    Im earning around 250$/day but well.. Im not so satisfied :)

    The site has 80k absolute uniqes/day and over 1M hits/day.. ( i dont run ads on all pages, it has alexa rank around 2k ). What is the best choice for me? What would you suggest me to do?

    Its game-related site ( mmorpgs );
    Regards

    Congrats on heavy traffic :)
    Do the people coming from paid ads have good reasons to stick around?
    ie, Fun contests, freebies, community forum, etc?

    Are you using any affiliate programs for revenue, too?

    well no.. i always keeped this site clean.. ( i got some other sites with adsense revenue ). Maybe that was the key to success?

    No im not using affiliate program :)

    `Do the people coming from paid ads have good reasons to stick around?

    Are you asking me about quality of my traffic? Well.. Its not so good imho. A lot of brasil/sweden/poland traffic ( which makes almost 60% of my whole traffic ).. then Usa/Canada and such.

    i've never advertised my site:) I used `viral marketing` and some seo optim.

    because its a list of private ( free ) servers and i doubt that my visitors would actually buy something via this kind of ads;)

    If they see something they like and need they will buy it anywhere they see it.

    He's right.
    You have a 'targeted market', which will also 'generally' need to buy something.
