    Your website/blog is low pay niche. If you want to improve the CPC, study on the high pay keyword

    Happens a lot lately. Google is keeping more money now. One of my sites (loans niche) used to pay $1 per click, now i get $0.01 all the time, the best ones go to $0.20 max.

    Time to move to affiliates if theres option for you.

    I got a click today for .06. My average click is about .45 these days and I was wondering what happened.

    Probably one, two or three of the clicks were considered invalid by Google.

    I used to get at least $2 from 10 click, but today I only got 0,30!!! That goes in-line with some other reports about bad earnings today.

    Very low earning shows here !!
    You must try atleast $ 0.02 per click in adsense.

    In this poor economy, it's no wonder earnings are low. In the last month I've seen periodic surges in earnings that is short lived (maybe once a week). The rest of the days have been consistantly lower then normal.

    You should perhaps try credit cards or insurance niches they pay a lot higher

    4 clicks is not enough data to form any conclusions. Are you chasing social traffic? What you earn is dependent on a number of factors including how targeted your visitors are and how well those visitors convert for advertisers.

    Yeah, Google doesn't think your content is valuable.

    Yes, because we certainly don't have enough of those MFA sites out there yet.

    Its pretty simple you have a low paying niche. Try getting a more niche type content to get a higher PPC

    Yes it is true about poor economy in the world specialy in US, but this is not only the case with the adsense. As somone above mention about poor content on the site (MFA), if you have very low $ per click this is because (99% sure) google is "smart priced" your account. Some site/ads that have very low ctr (below 3%) is conisdering like some kind of flag(warrning) and your all other sites have low $ per click also. Try to indentify that site or particular ad and remove them after few days you will see some bigger $ clicks. It happend to me before New Year to, I have removed ads from my arcade site(which have ctr about 1%) and all other sites went back to normal.

    Hope this helps.

    We know normally Ad links should be clicked twice then you earn, are those counted as two clicks or just one? Sometimes I get one click without earnings, one of the possible reasons is Public Service Ads, or invalid click, are there any other reasons?

    I think 2 or 3 of them are generated from clicking on PSA :)
