past 3 weeks I have averaged 3 cents per click WTF

    I used to average 30 + cents a click and I would often get 70-80 cent clicks. The past 3 weeks it has been total crap, my average is like 3 cents a click. I haven't done nothing to the site I just add new content everyday, that is all content related.

    my site is www.scriptmob.com, any tips or advice?

    Good question. Or perhaps you've been a victim of smartpricing? (p.s. nice design by the way...)

    Probably smartpricing or your topic might be seasonal so advertisers do not advertise at this time of the year
