How do you stop low paying clicks

Discussion in 'AdSense' started by Tutors_UK, Sep 1, 2008.

    Hi there

    I’m not that new to this, but I've been a bit lazy at looking at my adsense stats until recently.

    I've found that my clicks are starting to roll in now. However somedays I get 20-25 clicks from one site and earn less than a dollar, another day I get a couple of clicks from the same site and earn more than 2-3 dollars

    This means than allot of my click earn less than 40x the potentially high paying one.

    How do I know which ones are the high paying ones
    How do I know which ones are the low paying ones, and should I start excluding them as competitor sites?
    If I know which ones are the better paying clicks, how do I try to target for them sites?

    You can't, so don't bother. The only thing that can help is to have so many low-paying clicks, you don't give a damn.

    Did you try filtering sites you suspect are bidding low but are receiving a lot of impressions on your content? I filtered out a few lodging properties that I knew were low balling bids for the content matched network and that left more impressions for the advertisers who were just setting one bid (probably higher than they needed to be paying) for both search and content match.

    This reduced the low paying advertisers in the mix and improved my rpc.
    My situation is kind of out of the ordinary as the content is fairly targeted and has a low volume of advertisers looking to target this content.

    Regards

    Hi, You might also want to try Micro Niche Finder which also has a feature that allows you to get this information.

    Leave it like it is now. Don't put a list of high paying keywords in your blog/site. It may harm your adsense account.

    I believe it is still available for the same price you mentioned. I know nothing about that other package you mentioned, though it could be an upsale or something. I have no affiliation with the product but you can find it about click bank.

    Thanks Lightlysalted I never even new about that, my average should be around £0.80 (at a maximum CPC of £2.21), but Im getting no where near that (more like an average of £0.20) so I really do need to figure out which are the low paying click ones
    Im not sure how this would harm my account tendulkar2, unless its possible to take to many off.

    I cant see where Micro Niche Finder get hold of its data? I have a feeling the largest well known site a responsible for the lowest paying click

    Try placing less ads so you only get the highest payouts. It worked for me.

    I never new about that, most of my adds are from my search results, 3 large verticle sky scrapers, one under the other. So if I just use one sky scraper, you think I'll get higher paying clicks?

    I don't see why that would matter. Any gain would be offset by a drop in adviews.

    Write contents targeting high paying keyword without spamming and try to bring more targeted traffic. Use competitive ad filter in the adsense set up to filter display of low paying ads...
