Try to join sites wherein they will pay you for just clicking on ads and reading emails. You can also post your ads at a minimal amount if you are a member.

Good luck,

You really need to get traffic for website - so I’d say 5-10% or even more would be ok. If it brings in a good rate of investment (ROI) then more, for sure. With pay per click its very easy to work out what you’re paying and what its bringing in profits.

Afterall you don’t advertise just because you think you ought to, there’s got to be a payoff.
