adsense cheating us?

    For a website...

    39 clicks = 0.70$

    Should I look for something else instead of adsense? The above with over 12k impressions on ad pages only

    The low clicks is indicative of a "problem" with the website, not adsense. When I say "problem" I don't necessarily mean something wrong but rather maybe the type of content (forum?) A "problem" might be layout. The low earnings could be a function of a lot of MFA ads showing up, have you investigated what type of sites are showing up in your ads. When you look at the sites (don't click the ads but rather type the URL in manually) do they have a lot of ads on them? If so, they could be basically buying clicks by getting visitors to come to their site through ads on yours...the only way that is profitable for them is if the ads on your site pay very little, which it appears they do.

    Then something is not working ok. You can't have so different values every day. Even if impressions is like 0.02$ for 13k displayed ads thats crazy

    What do you mean "so different" Do you normally get a lot more than 39 clicks? You didn't say that in your first post.

    Yes they are they have tons of Google ads and block seems not working as it should, why they allow these sites? There are ton of sites related to image upload etc which have google ads on their sites.

    I mean that 39 clicks could be 5-6$ or less than 1$.

    From your other post it looks like your site MAY have been taken over with ads from low-paying sites which can easily make your total earnings plummet.

    It's image hosting I dont have good CTR from adsense but not 0.02$ for 13k impressions that sucks. I don't ask anyone to click I don't have friends related to internet at all.

    Do you think I could contact google even if it's invalid clicks or something is going wrong?

    It must be the content because for 39 clicks- I'd be 25 to 60 dollars - Lowest click is .65cents

    It's allowed, but if you don't block them, you're going to be earning pennies per click.

    I block them right now. I visit all urls in a seperate browser (I type them I don't click).

    tell me now that this advertiser is legal, www layoutsource net :mad:

    Block the domain, block layoutsource.net for example, not www.layoutsource.net and especially not www.layoutsource.net/somepage

    You may also want to right-click an ad, and copy link location or copy shortcut. Then do a paste into notepad or a similar text editor. Look near the end of the URL and see what advertiser URL is being used. It sometimes is NOT the same as the plain text ad showing on your site. Some of the MFA advertisers are getting tricky by making the URL that is displayed bogus.

    You may need to try to optimize your site better. I was around $5.00 for 39 clicks today.
