"Website advertising banners"

I was wondering if any of you know which advertising banners are best for making a bit of money on a website?

Currently the site that needs this has a google banner that shows about 3 clickable links but the owner of the site doesn't think this is going to generate the revenue that he desires.

Any help would be great. :)

hehe thats barely worth it being there.

My friends site gets about 300 clicks a day and he gets about 10cents per click i think it works out.

I am going to think of a website, make it, chuck some banners up and watch the free money fill my account.

Merchants 4
Impressions 391,591
Text Clicks 135
Banner Clicks 460
Total Clicks 595
Sales 2
Pending Sales 1
Commission £ .80

How crap is that!? That's for this month so far.

I just wish i had a site that people visited then i could start getting free money :(

My site has 'adult content' so I can't get them, despite the fact that albinoblacksheep has them and other 'adult' sites.

I thought i would let you know how the guys site is going and how much he is making.

He is using the google Adsense still which is what we thought wouldn't generate enough money. but it's been up for about a week and he has made about $140 from clicks over that week.

Its a forum site and has around 400 members, the forums have paied for themselves and for his website and what ever other money he gets is going towards a new server-machine for the players.
(can't go in to detail as the staffies will tell me off - not all that legal)

I don't know how buy all yur sites are but i would suggest that you take a look at adsense if you are looking to make a little bit of money ofcourse you have to have members willing to click teh links all the time, but we all know it's worth it.

Its a not a new idea. Its in the realm of all these get rich quick schemes that people throw about. Try searching for "Google Cash Strategies", theres books about it and such. I suspect these people make more money from selling the book than from google adwords though. :)
Although fairly easy to spot the problems from reading their stuff about it.

I've never really used it that way, so don't know about how their pricing works - I've only ever displayed google on my sites in the past.

I think it all depends on the competition (how many others want the same keyword / phrase as you do).

'Wireless'?

If I get rich from this, you can have 50p for being helpful. If I get poor though, um, dammit.

It's now a case of finding a keyword/phrase that isn't expensive and is fairly popular. Do Google tell you the prices of pay-per-click before you submit what words you want, or do you just find out?

Should be interesting to find out if this works.

I see no reason why it wouldn't be permitted, as to google, it would be no different than amazon doing it directly, and to amazon, they get featured on google for free, and if a sale doesn't come from it, no loss to them.
