yeah site is working fine, and btw try joining some good forums in the music industry and post your link there in your sign...

take a look at www.technoelectro.com or email them for advertising its a Maltese music website they got lots of traffic in there forum have a look i highly recomend them.

is better to email them before posting with your personal sign... since i don't know if they allow ads on there forum...

Hi there

One of the easiest ways to ensure long term profits from a web site is to collect email addresses from the people visiting.

You need to create a simple free report to give away - from quickly looking at your site - something like "The top 101 dance clubs in the world" - "Pick up our free report on where the best dance clubs in the world are located (a $49 value)"

Add a PS "Also included is a monthly review of the best "up and coming" clubs from around the world"

Now create a monthly newsletter reviewing clubs. Get your subscribers to do reviews of clubs from all round the world - let them provide photos etc.

You will need an autoresopnder to manage your subscribers and to post out your monthly newsletter.

Now once you have a few subscribers on board - you can sell advertising space in your newsletter (ezine) you can sell banners and you could probably find both digital and physical products to sell via an affiliate scheme.

Hope that gives you some ideas

Try adding ads from adsense or from Yahoo publisher. If your website gets a decent amount of traffic, you can make some money.

Correct statement. I second that.
Traffic = money
Content = traffic
