Google Adsense stopped paying me, Poor CPC !

    - I used to get 8-10 cents per click a few months ago
    Good

    - Past month i got around 5 cents per click
    OK

    - For past one week i am getting 1 or 2 cents per click
    Travesty !

    I get all the traffic from Google search with 500-600 unique visitors per day.
    And around 10 clicks which is earns me not more then 15 cents

    And Today i see 14 clicks and 13 cents earnings.

    I get genuine traffic, no point of invalid clicks. Is there something wrong

    Please help me

    With that type of site it just maybe better to match up all the songs and movies with ringtone offer's and go that route. You should get no less then $10 a sing up so that will cover what you where making and more.

    I am not sure about that. This problem seems to be as mine also.. That's one of the big deal I am encountering now.

    First thing your site is targeted towards Indian Visitors and its a know fact that advertisers pay less for indian traffic
    second may are in smart pricing (if the ROI of clicks or % of conversion of clicks or impressions is less then google smart prices you(pay less) )

    That niche (Entertainment) is pretty low paying. I know as I currently run 3 of them.
    I wonder how you were getting 10 cents clicks?

    you are lucky you getting paid more then $0.00 from bolywood niche
    actually choosing a local based niche in countries Pakistan India China Iran Romania is useless because no one invests on AdWords from these countries

    for example
    if i promote my web/online business on adword it may charge my $100 may be plus these are Rupees 8200

    and if i promote my niche on a local news paper charges are Rupees 200 per short classified ad and it ll result me better than adwords so i prefer to promote in local newspaper and if i do not invest how any one can earn it applies to all businesses and holders.........

    Smart pricing, i heard this word before on this forum but i think this is a made up term.

    Any one can tell how to avoid smart pricing ?

    I know its a low paying niche, but for months i got 10 cents and average CPC
    and for last month got 5 cents avg. CPC, which is fine with me

    But suddenly so low !!!
