bad keywords. I used to have similar things. 100 clicks = $3. Had that for like 10 days. I got REALLY mad. Changed my keywords and now make $25 for 50 clicks.
I don't get it. If you have a website about dogs, how would changing your keywords improve your CPM? Adsense serves ads based upon the content of your website.
I'd be pretty happy with that amount. It looks like you're getting a just wee-bit over $0.10/click, which isn't all that bad. What's your site URL?
Instead of dogs in general, niche it. Use specific breeds of dogs. Use uses of dogs in a specific instance, like wartime.
If the ads show keyword "dog" ($.30 a click as per overture bid tool) switch up the content a bit to be keyword "dog vet" or "dog medication" (which is $3.00 and $1.16 respectively) Same category, different keywords, more money.
Must try YPN Usually low paying niches have high traffic. Yes it depends on your niche and time period in which you have earned it.
Given that your in the loan business websites it seems... the bids for these keywords allows you to earn $2.00 per click....this is not possible in many categories however. Most would bew lucky to earn 0.25 per click given that the average Google Adword bid is 0.50 the amount one will earn is less than 50% of Googles price.
