    For me, it doesn't stop it if you blocked low paying sites like that. Or you can wait and see for yourself.

    210 clicks and only $9? What is the topic of your site? Most general topics aren't paid much.

    SmartPricing is implemented when you're providing low quality traffic, correct? Start providing higher quality traffic and you wont be smartpriced.

    I think the only way to avoid smart pricing is to make sure you don't get low-paying ads.

    210 clicks for $9 is like 4.4 cents/click.

    Do you want traffic leaving your site for less than 5 cents per visitor?

    I don't think the ad filter is all that effective for improving earnings. At least not in my case.

    That's nice

    That's like saying "The only way not to drive off the highway is to stay on the road" Value of the click has nothing to do with whether or not you'll get smartpriced.

    It's not smart pricing, i also get 4-5 cents/click for some US traffic and most of my non-US traffic.

    I don't think it has anything to do with smart pricing, because i get $1+ clicks pretty often on one of my sites, average over 30 cents.

    Use channels :p

    That is assuming that smart-pricing affects a USER and not a particular NICHE :) Sorry, couldn't resist.

    You're right, though, a lot of what people blame on smart-pricing is just a result of being infected with arbitrage ads that pay low cents. Your per click is down, how is your overall or daily earnings doing?
