Hi there,
I have a website blog about food recipes with 20-30€ medium income monthly. I started the blog years ago and I got 800/1k vists per days but now I'm lazy and I don't write no more recipes, so in 2-3 years started to decrease to 200/300.

My only income come from adsense.

Any suggestions to do to got more income?

p.s. I developed by myself the blog with wordpress
 
Just find not super known recipes on pinterest or advanced google search allintitle. Instead of making up your own recipes. You must be an amazing cook.

Yes I took a lot of pinterest recipes, I spent ,for the first year of the site, all day to search on it. But what do mean for advanced google search allintitle?
 
It is a tough niche. So many SaH moms and big sites covering recipes, it is all around the net. At one moment I also wanted to get into the niche, but was wondering what to do when I run out of recipes.
 
It's simple recipes with images? How long is your content?

There is some tips:

Check adsense heatmap too to display ads according to your website structure.

It's composed by an image, usually some text (some of them very short) and the structure meta html for recipe (to get image on google and entire recipe on pinterest).

Thanks for the link, I'll check it out
 
I've never tried out the recipe niche so this is only an educated guess, but I would think that putting the entire recipe on Pinterest is hurting you more than anything else, since there's no longer any reason to visit your site. Personally, I would use a photo of the finished product and an ingredient list, and force people to visit your site if they want the full recipe.

Yes it's an interessant point. I do in this way for the main reason that I'll get more visibility on pinterest for sure, so more click etc.. But I don't know how many click I don't get comparing to don't show the recipe. I think the visibility on pinterest is more important.

Has anyone tried this test?
 
Social media seems to be very good for this kind of website. Something like Pinterest, Instagram or Facebook.
 
I have just jumped into the recipe niche and will post update on how it goes
