    I think he means all his clicks total $3 and not $3 for single click.

    Wait till your getting $5000+ a day and smart pricing kicks in ;)

    BTW... are the ads on your site un-related to the subject of the site?

    I sometimes have successions of 1-5 cent clicks, but thankfully it levels out with a few $1+ clicks here and there. My average is about 25c/click.

    I thought smartpricing was calculated weekly, so if you get smartpriced your account will be smartpriced for a week, then if conversions have improved, it goes away.

    Up till now, i am not hit by smartpricing. I get a good CTR, but not enough traffic.

    Need to improve on Traffic.
