i talked with two developers already about it, yes most sites have the same audience but when you have a news site or blog people will not staying so long with so many reloads daily like on a forum or game. Where you also have the border that you need to register, to come in(so you have are really low chanche of visitors and just the same bunch of people looking at your ads).

Well, upon the initial stages of the now failed attempt at getting the BB Blog going, the key personnel at Bloguin (one of the largest primarily sports-blog networks around) were very, very excited to get BB on board - primarily due to the belief that BB was largely untapped as to it's earning potential.
Given my own small experience in the world of blogging and monetizing blogs, I think I'll believe them.

before i log in i always see ads for phillipino prostitutes...ah friends

if it was an nba ad i may actually click on it

euroleague would be good for eupopeans

aus, jap etc all have local leagues always need promotion for sure

the olympics will be good & i suspect they have a little money but maybe they dont need to promote themselves

I think another idea for BB to make money is perhaps a sponsor? Do you guys think it's a realistic possibility?

Yeah that's true 50k users is a decent size but probably not enough to attract big company sponsors. But I do wonder if BB has attempted to get some decent sized or local sponsors for the game. It would help them with the money.

Don't worry. the game will not be shut down anytime soon.

Rates from ads drop constitently, so you need to sell more ads to maintain the same income level every year - which is very hard. You cannot expect the same CPM/CPC values as you could 3 years ago. We actually don't use Google Adsense everywhere - we do sometimes sell targeted ads in some countries and/or for some languages. It's been hard to get lots of these targeted ads buyers though, but also because we probably lacked the competencies to do this well.

If anyone knows some ways how to raise that ad income through there contacts and such, of course we would be very happy to discuss it.

Great response! Surely out of the 50,000 players there is one that works in marketing or advertising that can help us out in exchange for supporter for life, the right to rename his next draft pick 10101100111 and a free copy of Charles's next astronomy paper.
