    Can someone explain to me why one day I get 60 cents for a click and 11 the next day?

    1) you don't get cost per click, you get earnings per click(epc)
    2) nobody knows the true answer to your question, except for google

    The people who created the ads that are being displayed on your site are all bidding different amounts per click to have their ad displayed. Google uses their bid to determine their ad placement and frequency. Their bid also determines in part how much Google pays you when someone clicks on the add.

    This is how AdSense works. If you want more dependable revenues, you should try something else, like the audio ad network I use on my own sites.

    Because keyword, advertisers, competition, etc. are not constant.
    Sign up for Google AdWords or read something about it and you will understand everything.

    All that is depending on what ads are displayed on your site!

    It depends on geographical area also. A click coming from US might cost $1.00 and the same click coming from Bangladesh might get 10 cents.
