What's the best way to monetize Android Game ?

I'm developing an Android game, it has 20k downloads so far.

But I'm not in US region, so I can't just SELL it via Android Market, so it's free.

So, I'm looking for a best legal way to earn some money from my game.

PS: Game already has AdMob ads, and I'm looking for something better.

+1 A:

Would it be possible to sell enhancements to the basic product? Some MMORPGs are free to play, but special items or access to certain arenas cost extra. Would something like that work? Could you sell them outside the Android market, once the player has already installed the basic game?

I'm already selling "hints" for the game, but very, very few people are buying them.

@zed_0xff: Ah, then maybe you're game needs to be harder, if too many people can finish without the hints. ;) But I was talking about selling extra content / components.
