    What the hell????? It's like 2 cents per click!!! Dammit!

    I use adsense in a software reviews blog, and the CPC it's terribly low!!!!

    Is there ANY way to improve this????

    My ads are well placed (100 clicks for 1000 impressions =D), but the problem is the CPC!!!

    HELP!!!

    try text adds instead of image banners .
    my experience is images pay lower than text adds .

    if u have software review blog , use some words like windows Xp , vista etc
    to fetch some vista , xp related adds also use words like trial , full version etc
    ;)

    Its nearly impossible to suggest you anything without knowing the URL.
    May be you are smartpriced or having a low paying niche. (software reviews blog normally have ± $0.05 clicks, my personal experience)

    Stop soon?I don't think so.Thats how adsense works.If you want more money per click than you should optimize your site for higher paying keywords,not for software and games.

    Possibly some invalid clicks. These types of earnings are not nuncommon in some niches as well.

    This is due to:

    1) Your theme/Low CPC
    2) Smart Pricing
    3) Invalid Clicks
