    As the title states....

    Something so simple with a little trial and error and time on my hands, actually worked in my favor in achieving a higher CPC.

    Check the screenshot below and do the same. Hopefully it works for you as it did for me.

    If you have any questions, post them here and I will do what I can to help out.

    For the whole month of December I made the change on the 1st. Since then I have never been down to the low CPC I had before this change.

    I would suggest you do it!

    Holla!~

    I HIGHLY recommend people do this. Ever see an advertisement on a site that mimics something you were browsing just a day or so ago? This is essentially what choosing this option allows your site to do: let the advertisements mimic what the user has recently looked at. Highly effective, and should skyrocket your CPC due to relevant ads!

    Does the Social Ads preference affect it? Or is it more about checking the first two?

    I have all three checked.

    I've always had all 3 ticked, how would blocking the last one help?

    I had the same as you, Greg. I've been getting $0.03-$0.05 clicks, and I decided to try his settings last night. I woke up to a $1.18 click.

    I don't know whether the click was different, or the settings helped.

    I mean, really!

    Its not like you guys are making $5,000 a month with adsense!

    Make the changes and see for yourself.. If it doesn't do you any good, put it back to the way you had it...

    SheeSH!

    HOLLA!~

    All 3 of mine were ticked before... I messed with several combinations before I left it the way it is now..

    Its the best setting as far as getting a higher CPC.

    Reasonably speaking that is.. :)

    Yeah that's the first two, I'm just curious about the Google+ one and what impact that has.
