I'm out of patience people. This is sad. the past 2 weeks or so I havn't gone past $10 and I'm getting 400-500 clicks. That's not even 2 cents per click. If I was on some other advertising program, at 4cpc, thats 16 bucks. Are there any Adsense-Similar companies that pay well? (I don't want chitika or widgetbucks). PS: Please don't give me a big longlist or a website that leads to just a list. I want reviews or experiences. I'm not going to test 30 advertising programs. That would take 3 months. BreakDown: 52 clicks for 69 cents from http://KendLojrash.com (arcade but still. 1cent a click???) 63 clicks for 1.20 from http://videoklipeshqip.com (I don't know why. I see well-paying ads like Chrysler Dealer and even Home Loans) 34 Clicks for .78 from http://filmashqiplive.com (not even indexed in Google. It was before I put Google Video in there) and then there are like 20 for 9 cents on http://kendlojrash.com center rectangle. Most of the units that get 1-20 clicks earn less than 1cpc when I average them out. Yeah my niches suck, buck what the hell. Even a website based in a "how to take a crap" niche would make more. hmmmmmm
wow. i can't exactly tell without knowing your site. if you care, send me the url; i will take a look at it and give you my honest advice. i hope your site start to do better.
Well you can't really know without experimenting. What worked on someone site might not do the same on yours.
That' about sums it up. You can have all the traffic in the world..but if it's a garbage niche...you won't make squat, as your site seems to be doing. I have one that does the exact same thing..so I don't invest any time into it anymore. I found a couple better niches that don't have as much traffic, but pay much better.
verify the allowed sites feature, maybe you have more websites and the domain is not allowed in the list ???
If you are talking about the Sites Allowed list, all my domains are in there. Otherwise, I don't get your comment.
I notice is your domain names are kinda wierd. anyways, Your traffic might be bad. (like from china) But I'm thinking your domain names are another language. What is that? maby that traffic from people who speak that language is bad? I've never run a arcade but I've read they have bad CPC, I mean how much do you expect from IMVU ads or the fart button?
i think you have to increase the ctr further. for your arcade site, the banner on the left hand side could be blended more just like the rest of the site. your ad text is green while the site is using grey and black text colors. that should probably increase ctr. also try image ads if you are not already because there only one ads shows up and more competition, better rates.
LOL. I hate those ads. I'm a sucker for them though. I never fail to Kill osama and win an xbox 360. No but seriously, I try to block w/e I can. These are websites that manage themselves. Once completed, never really touch it except renewing the domain at the end of the year. Still though, I would expect to make something out of them with that kind of traffic. BTW, My sites are in Albanian, thus my domains. My traffic is like 75% European.
I looked at your website. Its pretty obvious why your not making much per click and your going to have the same problem with these website no matter which adnetwork you go to. Your website target demographic isn't very saught after. Your website keywords are in something other then english, adsense works like simple economics, demand and supply. The higher the demand the higher the price. Obviously there isn't much demand from advertisers to get traffic from your language/keywords. Your best bet is to either translate everything into english and try to reach your demographics diaspora in the Western world where all the advertisers are.
If I make Other websites in new niches (which I'm making right now) would I need to take my ads off these carppy niches? I heard one single website can mess up the whole account...
It seems pretty obvious to me why you're getting low-paying clicks. You don't have any defined keywords on your sites. Add some more keyword-rich content related to your site on the home page and sharpen up your meta keywords. The different language is also a big reason why. Your niches aren't total crap, it's your sites that need some refining.
If you haven't seen this before, you may now be in heaven: https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal? It's for google adwords users, but... do the math, reverse it!
All of the tips above are very good advice indeed.. Also you might could try removing some of the lesser clicked on / lesser paying ads.. Ive heard some say that helps.. It did for me more people clicked the others more when i got ride of the lesser ones.. Also you could try useing your competive ad filter to remove some of the more shotty ads.. Get the links by right clicking the proprtys and then just block all the ones that go to MFA looking websites. And yea i always heard gameing sites didnt pay much ..
