I have a warez forum with around 5,000 posts a day and 80 users online at a time. I've tried posting banners for file upload sites, tried clickbank, tried ******, tried Leadbolt content locker, banner ads, basically everything and I can't find a way to monetize it. What do you guys think?
 
Have you made nothing or just very little with these methods? Have you tried messaging all your members with some sort of offer?

Very little, most traffic comes from guests. Only like 500 members.
 
I can recommend something but it is prohibited to talk about that in this forum. So PM me if you want.
 
well if you are running warez forums, then the best bet is to upload files on the hostings which pay for the download. Besides that its really hard to Monetize wares Blog. Adding Gateway or Popups might help a bit.

I don't post anything myself, 500 other people do so that's not really possible. I've tried pop ups along with banners and ****** with Infolinks all at the same time and it annoyed everyone, slowed my site down to about 20 seconds, and made under a dollar a day. I'm looking for something worth what it is in annoyance to my users.
 
show all the guest that click on links a site that redirects after like five minutes. on this site you can tell them to register and show some banners.
next i would limit the sites it is allowed to link to. this way you can concentrate the amound of traffic you send and my be negotiate something with the one click hosters for traffic with your sites referrer.
 
Easy - just show adfly to guests, and members get straight link with some contextual ads.
 
Content lock + ****** any external links to file hosting sites - BUT ONLY for non-members. Tell them on the content locker that if they become a member then they will get free access to the file.

If you need to use a custom content locker PM me.

I tried all this and barely made anything, it just annoyed people.
