Try promoting your best pages from other pages

This sounds so obvious that everyone is probably doing it already... but it helped me when someone pointed it out.

link to your highest performing pages from the other pages.

On your homepage, for example, have a section called 'MOST POPULAR ARTICLES', or include a 'RELATED LINKS' section at the base of all your articles (like they do on all the news sites)
...but only link to pages that are performing well on the ads.

i also gained a massive jump in page views when i started putting links within the essay text itself (like wikipedia does).
these days, people seem to be shying away from that because it looks a little messy, but it really works well

Nice tip. Sometimes the obvious can get overlooked, eh?

This tip needs channel tracking for identifying those pages, so if you're not channel tracking and identifying sections/pages that are performing well, then perhaps you should, if you're intrested in understanding how your website is really doing and finding room for improvement.

Great tip as I've been trying to think of ways to increase people going to my pages that have triple the earnings rate as other lower paying sections. I do pretty good cross linking but perhaps it can be featured even more.
