    Hello,

    I have a small site, about sport, and i am putting Adsense on it

    Yesterday I am surprised to see that

    2 clicks= 0.02 $

    CTR= 0.36 %

    why the earning and CTR is too low?

    Thanks for you...

    Well, that happens sometimes... May be if you will get visitors from other countries you will earn more !

    And your niche also seems to be low paying thats why you got only $0.01 per click.

    Yes it may be wise to explore other options such as CPM or banner ads. I found Google paid me well for the clicks I sent (USA, targeted) but that I wasn't getting many so I switched to selling 125 x 125 ad spots.

    Sport's isn't a very high-paying niche, IMO.

    2 click - means nothing. You should get at least 100 to see average bid

    It happens sometimes. Your number of clicks and your CTR tell that you don't have much traffic. Try to increase your traffic first. If your CTR is still low, then you may need to change your ad placements. Good luck.

    and where is the rest of the traffic coming from; i suggest you to have at least 75% of traffic from USA; this should in theory increase your earnings 6 times; if you are lucky and your website becomes popular; then you might hit the jackpot.

    Hey There!

    You can have more profit by trying to get visitors from other countries.

    You can also try building your site for more traffic by commenting on blogsites that is related with yours. By that you can attract more visitors.

    try to pimp your site too, by writing nice and informative contents about your site.

    Goodluck! :)
