    Well I don`t have a proxy, but this maybe normal. there are some ads that don`t pay well. Look at the urls of the ads.visit the sites, look how professional they are 8but don´t klick on the ad itself). Less professional sites often pay nuts. login into your adsense account and put the site into the excluding filter. Done

    on your site you are getting ads from some sites which are paying very less bid in adwords. Plus country specific ads also get low cpc. Like USA would get better cpc than India.

    No, they won't. Things are getting worse,. BTW, I get far less than 1 cent / click. At least on my main ad unit.

    Same here. CPC has been way down for the last few days. I do filter MFAs because they are MFAs (Mother F... well, you know).

    Man, I'm glad I started running Kontera this month!

    Proxies (and arcade sites) earn low payouts all the time, by their very nature. If you'd like to earn more, I would suggest starting a different kind of Website. :)

    I notice on my site that sometimes I get clicks between 0.01 and .50 cents each and i strong believe that the value of each click is indirectly related to the source of your traffic.

    Let say, if the traffic that generates clicks comes from North America or maybe Europe due to smartpricing your clicks will be much higher because those visitors is the kind of traffic advertises want and has a better conversions, plus the bids are already done in US or Canadian dollar

    Now if your clicks comes from another country, like Asia or South America due to exchange conversions and low paying adverstisers your clicks will be worth much, much less.

    I am saying that because one of my sites is available in two languages and the English clicks pays way more.

    Just my 0.02 cents

    My gaming website averages 1-2 cents a click. My Movies site about 5-10 cents, My link directory gets about 20cents, and my forum about 50cents a click (low ctr though. about 3clicks a day)

    I guess it depends on type of site (DUHHHHHHHHHHH. :p)

    I have noticed a few 1+ clicks. The other day I had 1 click in my forums and it made 2.12 ;)

    Today it's pretty crappy though. 32 clicks for 1.52 total. Hope to make around 5 by the end of the day.
