    :(
    i have a website thats dedicated to a rock band...
    i don't understand why it's such a low income, is my site a magnet for shit mfa sites that only pay 1-2 cent a click?

    i think i also don't understand the whole keyword thing... if someone recommends me to change the keywords, does it mean to write news articles around those new keywords or anything?

    how do you generally fight the low paying ads?

    If its a rock band with album releases then you should try going all out with the amazon affiliate program.

    Create a mini shop with the 'buy now' buttons that link to amazon.

    Yeah that niche pays crap. Better off with other ways to monetize the site.

    fp, you may need to join an affiliate program and promote a service or product that's targeted to your audience.

    I don't know if you're going to make much money with the genre your in with adsense. The ads on your websites are not the best money makers.

    .05-cents a click is about right for an entertainment site that has been smartpriced.
