Now should i go with adult ads, or google, or what is usually something with some type of good conversion. Also i'm aiming for around 6-8k uniques a month, thats what a similar room, of the same advertising and structure was doing. Which is what this is made to replace. I think i'll be able to keep around 1/10 of those people as regulars who vsiit once a week, and only about half that that visit every day. Of there is any way i can make money based on how long their at my site, or whatever, that would help ouch alot. Also when you leave the chatroom i can choose where the exit traffic goes. now, i don't know whats terribly effecient for all of this.

I'd say that you shouldn't be thinking about how the chat room is making you money, but thinking more about how the rest of the site can. As Busy said chat rooms don't really make money, they're just a bonus feature.

That said you could introduce a premium membership feature, people who pay some cash get added bonuses: The ability to add photos of themselves to their chat profile or customised avatars (like we have here) etc. This also has a lot to do with the limitations of your chat software, something I know nothing about.

In summary: Premium memberships for the chat, normal advertising for the rest of the site.

Thanks very much for replying. Are there any other good money making techniques or idea i can use to make full use of that chat room?

chat and ads don't mix, people go to chat rooms to chat, not to surf the net.

With only 70 regulars you'd need a lot of roatating ads to keep them happy, seeing the same old ad soon becomes boring quickly and lessens the chance of them paying attention or getting them to click on new ones
