If you know what your readers would buy, you can sign up for affiliate programs that they might be interested in and basically serve rotating ads yourself. It's definitely a lot more work, and becomes more worth it the bigger and more targeted your audience is.

Tried affiliate marketing with no luck in the past. Don't know if it's easy now a days to sell products easily?

Look into affiliate marketing. If your niche has any businesses in it, chances are you could potentially get as much if not more on a revshare model. Slightly more upfront setup with partnerships, but a learning opportunity nonetheless.

There are other services that look similar but pay 10% as much, if that, and look sleazier...

Like?

e.g., JuicyAds Tried them for a NSFW-lite Apple parody website. Never saw a penny, but the site didn’t take off either.

I'm only familiar with AdThrive and MediaVine, and certainly it depends on the niche, but most folks make significantly more. I know someone who jumped 5x when they switched. Just a heads up though, the requirements are higher: AdThrive requires 100,000 monthly views and MediaVine requires 25,000 sessions.

Carbon ads, if your site meets their quality requirements.

Carbon ads? Tech space only from what I understand.

I too lost my Google Adsense account exactly when I had reached the minimum quantitiy to be able to get a paycheck, they banned me and kept my 100 €, which took me months of doing SEO, writting content, and much more. So what I have been trying lately, is contacting directly clients that might be interested in placing an ad on my website, maybe we need some sort of a new social network for people to sell ad spots on…

Could you sue locally in small claims court?
