So we are running a daily news site in Hungary which has currently around 60K page views a month.
60k per month isnt really bad at all if you can sustain that traffic then monetizing would be somehow easy.
ICOs go to agencies to promote their projects and they pay out in tokens after very long time the project is concluded.
Risky payment and wont really have any assurance yet those tokens might not get any value in the end which means tendency you would end up
on recieving pennies.
Referral links which we push does generate some revenue but we like to get rid of those because we consider it unethical especially if you like to build an authority news site on which the community here can rely on.
Already being mentioned above PPC might really be a worthy move to be done. Cost might not really be a big deal because based on my experienced they arent charging to high.
If this site would be on English language and not on the local ones this would somehow help
