32 Clicks---> $.63 ...Whats Wrong?

Discussion in 'AdSense' started by Shady, Apr 23, 2007.

    I am running proxy sites and today I got $.63 for 32 clicks!!!! I find that is incredibly low and have never had a day like this before...

    On one of my sites I had a 12% CTR and on another I had a 9% CTR!!!! I have never even had a CTR above 3% before in my life nevermind on 2 sites having such a high CTR??

    Anyone have any ideas whats going on?

    Have you filtered out all of the MFA adverts. That I believe is the best way to get your earnings per click up. Check out this post by John Chow.

    Proxy sites usually have a very low PPC to begin with, so tough luck mate. =\

    Try doing what macgoo said and filter out the low paying sites.

    I know my CTR seems way to high....I swear I am not cheating in any way and I really don't know how it got so high....

    should I email google and tell them I dont know whats going on so they don't ban me?

    I would install adlogged if you don't have it already.. sounds like you're getting a lot of fraudulant clicks!

    Why would I be getting invalid click?

    I have not being clicking my own sites and have not even told anyone I know that I own them?!?!? Is it possible somone is trying to frame me to look like I am clicking my owns ads? I know that probably sounds stupid but is it possible?

    Also I genrated a list of low paying links and MFA site using adsblacklist (thx for sharing mcgoo green added!)...alot of the links however don't eem to pertain to proxy sites though...does anyone have a good list proxy site specific competitve ad filter sites that they would like to share in exchange for some green?
