If a website gets 1000 unique visitors per day, how much money, on average, should it make?

If a website gets 1000 unique visitors per day, how much money, on average, will it make?

this is assuming it has the normal amount of annoying ads on it, including banner ads, google ad sense, sky scraper ads, and all the rest...

I'm looking for a ballpark figure. Please cite your source, too.

Thanks!!!

at average click-through-rate per page view is 1.1% [can go up to 5% if very well done]
at average pay-per-click revenues for the site owner are 50% [can go up to 80% depends on the ads provider] of the price paid by the advertiser. Given that, average revenue per cick is 20c.
at average 1 visitor views 2.5 pages [can go to 30 if well done - see facebook]

now, we make the calculation and here it is:

1000 x 2.5 x 1.1% x 20c = $5.5 per day

Have a good one!

    There is no amount it "should" make. Some ads pay for the "real estate", which means they pay you a flat rate for having their ad on your site per month, week, etc. Some political blogs make several thousand dollars a month doing this. Other ads only pay if the ad is pursued by clicking on it.

    When you say 1000 unique visitors a day, is this cumulative. How many of these 1000 visitors are expected to be repeat visitors? There is a big difference, as far as advertising goes, between 1000 unique visitors a day with very little repeat visitors and 1000 unique visitors a day with, say, 250 to 500 repeat visitors.

    The amount you make is going to be proportional to the popularity of your site. If I made up a crappy free site and peppered it with ads, I won't make very much at all. If I make a quality site that is attractive to advertisers, I will make more in advertising. Think about your own tastes: do you like to visit sites that are obviously made primarily for advertisinments?

    You have left out too many main details to answer accurately. How much is each hit worth...that's what you need to figure out, then what is going to drive people to your website...too hard to tell. Hopefully you'll figure it all out and become rich...let me know how you did it when it happens!!

    You can get 5000 visitors in a day and not make anything. However, following up with your prospects by email and phone is crucial. If you're in some type of business opportunity, especially, online, you have to build relationships before you begin reaping results.

    For example: I ran a targeted email lead campaign for 5000 guaranteed clicks; I had about 40 optins, but no sale. Why? We are in an industry that is saturated, and people are curious, which means that they need reassurance that there is a real person behind the scenes (I ran the campaign for 1 day).

    If you're generating 1000 visitors per day, then you should have a pretty high conversion ratio. I can't tell you how much money you will make because I don't know what commission structure is, but I'm pretty sure you would make a substantial amount.

    The pay-off per click varies widely depending on what each advertiser decides to offer, based on the profitability of their products and their expected conversion rate (percentage of clicks that deliver a sale). Google is not saying what the average pay-off is, but our own experience after one month of running the program shows an average pay-off of $0.63 per click. We have seen clicks paying as little as $0.02 and as much as $3.00.

    So, just for the sake of giving an example, lets say that your site receives 1,000 page views per day. If the 1.2% click-through rate and $0.63 pay-off per click that we have observed on our site hold true for your site as well, in a 30-day month you can expect to make:

    1,000 x 30 x 1.2% x $0.63 = $226.80

    Not enough to get rich, but a nice extra income nevertheless, that you can use to pay for your domain name and hosting costs, and then some.

    Don't quit your day job.

    hah, I'm sorry, I really don't know. How much are those advertisers willing to pay you?? That's the question you should be asking--then just do the math ;)

    Hello,

    Haha I think it's hilarious that someone would answer a question with, "I'm sorry, I don't know." HAHA Why bother?!

    I teach people how to do exactly what you want to do. If you're getting 1000 visitors a day (which will take a LONG while!) you could probably be making some decent money from AdSense.

    If you had 5 websites with 1000 visitors a day, you could probably afford not to have a real job.

    Do you mind if I give you a few tips?


    For your website:

    1. Buy one on eBay (Pretty cheap, and quick!)
    2. Make one yourself (Make sure it looks professional!)
    3. Hire the local web designer (expensive!)
    4. Hire someone from GetAFreelancer.com to build it (A LOT cheaper than number 3)
    It's a simple process, but there's a lot involved.

    For instance (on eBay):

    http://www.epregnancy-help.com/

    That's a website for sale on eBay right now for $10. The person who bought that website could just market that site, and have it collect cash!

    Anyways, I hope this helps!
