Minimum Traffic Before Monetizing
 

Do you look for a minimum amount of traffic before you try to monetize your site?

My site has grown to about 10k users per month and about 30k pageviews per month. It is 100% Organic/Returning traffic and free.

How much do you think I could make? I've tried installing affiliate ads but I made nothing from them.

Since then I've attached a drop-shipping toy store which makes some money but not a tonne.

Next my goal is to install an ad platform to allow users to buy ad space directly from me.

What would you do? Have I missed something? I feel like I could grow this site relatively quickly but it's hard to find the motivation to do so because I've struggled to make it profitible.
