    hi guys...my adsense been smart price once so I did remove all adsense codes from my blogs for sometimes.

    Now,I'm restructuring all my blogs,the contents, and the seo things again. Since the smart price really poisoned my earning it's kind of confusing to me now.

    Am I have to put my adsense's code after the seo things done (when the traffiic and serp are going to get work well)? or I just put the code back right after I'm done with these stuff?

    I hope many of u guys out there cld help me on that :(

    yup. I did read abt this in some forums. saying that...if we are getting smart priced by one blog so the entire account will be poisoned by that...so they suggest to get the adsense codes out from the blogs about one week in order to get rid the smart price and start again....

    So that's why I'm taking sometimes to make a very big difference in my contents and the seo things.....

    Smart pricing happens on a continual basis. The theory I have about it is whenever your clicks to conversions drop below a certain percentage you get smartpriced... and it can happen on a per site basis or per account basis.

    One of my sites had been smartpriced and I was getting only $0.03 or less per click for about a week while another site I got a click for $1.50+. About 1 week later, the site that gave the smartpriced clicks started giving $1+ clicks again (not many of them) and the other site was still fine.

    In my case I didn't remove the code, I just rode out the storm whereas removing the code for a while may help offset some of the smartpricing affects in the short term, it could lower your overall earnings long-term.

    What is the difference between the earnings before and after smart pricing?

    What you were getting per click before you were smart priced?

    The adsense earning on one of my sites dropped significantly since last Thursday.

    revenue drop % eCPM drop %
    Friday 71% 65%
    Saturday 57% 49%
    Sunday 55% 52%

    The average pay per click was about 15 cents and now it is about 8 cents. This site got one or two 1 or 2 cents clicks per day before, but there are about 5 or 6 one or two cents clicks per day. I don't know what is the reason behind this. I didn't do any major changes on this site except removal of Google Analytics which should cause the smart pricing.

    I had Adsense ads on a game site for kids, but only on one page. I added the Adsense ads throughout this game site about two weeks ago. I think Kids may click ads, but they may not buy anything because they don't have money. Therefore, the conversion rate of advertiser's site for traffic from my site may be very low. I think this might be one reason but am not sure. The adsense revenue from this game site actually increased in last four days.

    Anybody have any ideas about this Adsense revenue drop?

    It's just a theory. Someone gave the idea a long time ago here on DigitalPoint.
    I'm not sure if it works, because I didn't try it.

    It's on this forum, and I've read it other places. Clickers who don't "follow through" are seen as bad "customers" so Adsense will start to devalue your clicks.

    That's IF you had high paying clicks at first. If you had low paying clicks from day one that's just a low paying keyword that Adsense has latched ont.
