71 clicks and I'm just going to snap.

    Ok, when I first started with webmasting and SEO people said you have to learn a lot. Well, through the past year my biggest mission was to be able to get consant traffic.

    Now I can say "no problem" every week I'm beating a record for either adsense clicks or traffic.

    But the more clicks and traffic I get the worse its getting.

    The very first month in Dec 2007 I recieved 13 clicks for the whole month and grabbed a total of $2.52 from adsense.

    Today I just beat a record. I got 71 clicks, but I'm going to just snap at google.

    Today they owe me 71cents because of the 71 clicks.

    how, How, HOW can I bring this up. I can't take it anymore.

    My site is at http://www.echoarcade.com

    Any solid suggestions for me and my site to bring the click worth up. I've filtered over 100 MFA's n' stuff, I've placed the ads in a good clicking area, etc.

    Tell google to pay me more, bunch of crooks.

    you can check that with CPC checking tool..

    Welcome to Google 1centperclicksense :D
    The arcade niche is known to be low paying one...

    Try to find another ways to monetize your site.

    I think youve been smartpriced which means you should move to another adnetwork like adbrite or maybe try out a different type of ad like affiliates or cpm's

    That's the end result of tossing up a turnkey site, my son. There is a reason that all the sites you've heard about that makes a mint with Adsense are all original content sites, you know. Sure, you can make money with little work with such sites, but it ain't gonna be a whole lot. Maybe you can get your money back from whoever sold you the package?

    What is the main source of traffic for your site? Do you get users from mostly Asia? or from Europe of the US? If most of your traffic is coming from Asia, maybe thats the reason of so low paying adsense.

    No need to check that. Looks like I found out the hard way.

    Other ways? Other ways! What kind of ways.

    Actually I'm working on a site that is completely hand typed by me which will have over 1000 pages completely original and extremely rare about the internet. If this gets 1cent clicks you know I'm going to have to pm you to tell you that you didn't know what you you were talking about. The thing is a lot of the descriptions are unique in the arcade as I re-wrote them but it's not helping. Don't get me wrong people. In a month I am about 5 times the hosting cost. It's just I'm sick of this 1cent thing. This is the lowest I've ever made from adsense with the highest clicks. What's the future for me. 10,000 clicks in a day will get me $2?

    My traffic is global from english area's. Mostly Canada, US, africa, etc.



    Ok people. There's gotta be something I can do with this arcade. All I want is 3 to 7 cents a click. I can't handle 1cent. It's offensive. It's just tells me google is taking too much of a chunk.

    What can I do with the site?

    How about this. Do non-image ads give more?

    I've got a couple arcades... they each get .01-.02cent clicks. I don't really care about them though, they run themselves.

    What ads are you talking about?I just check your site and from the ad placement i would say that you start with AdSense yesterday.

    You should be mad. You should want to start a revolution and get 100,000 publishers to take a stand and go off of adsense until these dudes get it together. You think the advertisers are paying 3cents to google for these clicks?

    No way. They are probably forking 10 to 20 cents and google is handing a penny. It's offensive.

    There's gotta be a way to work with the site to make things better than this.

    What, explain. I don't understand. What's wrong with it dude? I just said I get a massive click ratio over unique daily visitors.

    arcade site = low paying niche
    myspace resource site = low paying niche

    no matter how hard you work these sites still pay junk, look at getting value click on here maby

    Even these days the CPC for image hosting sites is also about $0.01 to $0.02 & my traffic is also mostly from US.

    Yep. Seriously, don't bother trying to get higher clicks. All you need to worry about is instead of 71 clicks to get 71cents, get 1000 clicks to get 10.00$.

    mm unfortunately some sorts of sites have a low CPC. You could try selling advertising space to other arcades or other sites and try other ad networks.
