I really don't understand what I'm doing wrong and need your help to figure it out. I've had 447 page views in the last 7 days (that's the norm), but my account shows zero clicks and profits of $2.75 from last month! I really don't get this. I've put a lot of time into understanding adsense and I've tried it on multiple site... with ZERO earnings. Is Adsense dead? What can I do? Please help!!!
Check whether it is actual visits. It not then some one may have play with your site. Check your Adsense code also.
where is your traffic coming from? not all the traffic converts. organic targeted traffic will generate certain amount of clicks but traffic from stumble upon or similar sources will not convert. also, check your analytic to see the source as well as the bounce rate and duration of stay. if you see close to 100% bounce rate with 1 sec stay, then you know its not the real traffic.
Yes could be many reasons, the topic with few advertizers as well as a bad ad placement.. many things indeed, at the moment we can only look in our crystal balls to know what site we're talking about..
Doesn't matter.. one of my blog gets 18000 impressions per day and no click. Impressions doesn't mean that much people visited your blog or website.
I think most have already mentioned it, but the common reasons are traffic - who is visiting? Where is it coming from and ad placement - are your ads accessable to the use? Have you checked your analytics to see what is going on in terms of visitor activity? Try breaking it down from entry point to exit point as a user.
maybe you are not using adsense theme and of course it all depends on the placement of the ads,you;re ads should be conceive as part of your content check my site and see the placement i had a very good ctr with this kind of placement kyriousrobert.com
I'm having a problem that is somewhat the same. I have 20,000 impressions daily per AdSense but only a 0.03 CTR -- about 5 clicks a day. If it's not real traffic, how do you stop it to get real stats and revenue? My time on site when from over 2 minutes to close to 20 seconds. I feel hacked!
I believed that it is due to non-targeted traffic. By the way, 447 page views cant really tell you the reason, you actually need to focus on getting more traffic
447 isn't much at all... get better placement for your ads and you'll earn. Sometimes even 1000 visitors dont click on your ads. It happens sometimes.
Get analytic's out. See where the traffic source is. Look at where your ads are placed. Gain more traffic. Then see some earnings! You need to understand the visitor and see the site from his eyes. Where would his eyes drift to? The ads or the title of an article? Think about that important factor too.
How high is your bounce rate? High rate may results in non-quality visitors and lower Adsense CTR as result.
I'll tell yo one key thing my friend, it's the topic of your site. If people go to your site because they are looking for a solution to a problem, they will click the relevant ads.
I think unique visitors is a more important stat then pageviews. I think it is only a certain demographic of people that actually click on ads.
there is no guarantee that a few hundred visitors will get you any clicks on your ads. with traffic you will soon get some clicks but you will need much more traffic to make sure that you are getting clicks daily. you may need 10 or more sites getting that much traffic to get weekly clicks. you will have to play the numbers game.
