    Short-term, assuming the quality of your clicks improve.

    Also, realize that smart pricing isn't a boolean factor -- it's not just "OFF" and "ON". I'm of the opinion that most sites face some degree of smart pricing (a little, a little more, a lot, etc) based on their traffic patterns.

    Just an FYI...if you have a network of blogs you are running and you are in fear of getting smartpriced on one of the blogs, cut it off from the group and try to monetize with something else. If one of your blogs get smart priced ALL of your other blogs will get the same.

    Smartpricing is very smart for google. It's an excuse to pay you less.

    Not true. I'm pretty sure Google said that SmartPricing was site based, not account based.

    try changing some stuff around to improve quality, other than that you just have to wait it out.

    Well, I have personally never been smart priced but I have had fellow marketers complain that indeed, if you are smart priced, your adsense publisher id gets it. I could be wrong though and they could just be paranoid....
