Why would it show clicks if they were invalid. Adsense is always behind in terms of stats so they should be able to correct that before showing earnings. I get alot of 1 to 2 cent earnings and no clicks on a few pages. Could be paid per view but not enough hits to make any money. Some pages earn me 48 to 98 cents a click on occasion and other times i am lucky to make 4 cent a click on same pages.
Woah there buddy, time for a negative rep point for being an idiot. The min bid is 1c. The real question is, why is the cost of clicks gone through the roof yet it's not at all reflected in peoples adsense earnings. When i do a search for a major keyword like 'america' on google and some ringtone advertisement shows up as #1 i've once again got to question how much crack needs to be smoked before someone recognizes the adwords 'quality' system seems to walk a line of fraud. What users are lead to believe 'quality' can achieve and what actually happens are two different things. There is more than a few things between adsense/adwords that are remincent of Enron.
Adsense is doing really poorly for me this month...the price per click I get is so unstable sometimes it just really pisses me off.
Yeah, but they should do a better job of letting publishers know. In any other affiliate-type program, this degree of no transparency would have me suspect them of being cheats (which I have caught many programs cheating, so never assume they're honest). They do not provide you with any information about the user who clicked (even if it was generic, something would be nice). They do not provide you with any details about what ad was clicked on a given day, let alone what the rate of pay was. Without knowing this information, it is impossible for a publisher to audit their system to make sure proper credit is given. You basically have to allow yourself to be led around blindly and just hope that the company isn't skimming from the system.
Same here, just as you feel you're getting somewhere down those clicks plummet -- the joy of adsense! Does YPN really pay out as well as quoted earlier >> If so when is YPN coming to Europe?
