Is there any method to test/check/investigate how much the ads paying per click?

    As i said, i got plenty of decent looking ads on my site
    for some reasons, i got pretty low paying per click
    I am really pissed that there are clicks but......, o damnit

    I really wanna kill the low paying ads.

    the more advertisers you exclude/filter
    the smaller the competition
    the lower the prices for remaining advertisers and the more your self-induced G smart pricing is lowering your income

    you have no URL of that site,
    hence more precise help would need precise info from your side first

    so, they don't provide specific terms instead of broad terms

    exactly that's what I mean
    during the past 6 or so months I made myself intense and cost intense tests on that subject and saw differences of up to 50% between filtering/blocking/removing advertise in this site
    vs ALL advertiser = free competition

    after many months doing all the various tests
    i am back to zero filter ALL welcome to compete/bid for highest prices

    as soon as you have more biders on a keyword than you have actual ad slots ( ONE ad unit has up to 5 ad-slots ) the less smart pricing is active
    if suddenly one or several want to have a FULL ad-unit all alone then the price may jump way up

    for you as site owner such may look like spam
    because some advertisers are all over your site

    but

    the visitors see each of the pages the first time while you see daily
    hence it is totally unimportant what you feel when you see ONE all over
    important is that higher competition rises the bar to go above and hence high price instead of smart price occurs.
    without filter you may see 2 or 3 businesses bidding each for a full size ad unit - they have to bid against all others a dozen or more who also want to have a single ad slot

    in order for all filter-removal to bne fully effective at G it may take several days waiting

    i got a question right here
    what if i am working on a low bidding niche
    even if i open all MFA/Mean adviser on my site
    for example 0.1(current normal CPR) v.s.0.01(MFA CPR)
    it is not going to rise much to compansate the lose of MFA, right?
    I think it depends on niches
    your strategy works on high paying niches only, i guess
