India and Persia would be 2 very hard countries to monetize in the traditional ways. Their income levels vary greatly from the US. They still have lower, middle and upper class they are just on different scales. There middle class has around (and this is a general est) $7000 per year salary, which is quite good in India.

So monetizing to any great extent will only work with large scale traffic and small cost of purchase.
