    You post about smart pricing is interesting. Right now I only get 1 - 5 cents perclick compare to $0.5 last month... i wonder if that was the reason.
    hmm.. I want to try making experiment like you did but 20 days without adsense *sigh*
    What other good program beside adsense?

    Direct advertising is the best way to get money :). I managed to get a contract with advertisers on one of my forums. Getting more than from Adsense alone :).

    hey guys thanks for all your comments!
    i have taken thme to my attention and put some new ads, and removed the top half banner ad.
    so far earnings are increasing a bit, but not something i should be pleased about...
    I get around 25 clicks per day and not getting pass the $2.5 earnings per day. that sucks. and my site is expanding and each day more and more visitors are coming... (when I started this thread I had 1700 uniques per day, now about 2000 +-)
    so I really dont know what to do.
    which other programs like adsense you guys recommend me, if I'll decide to quit adsense?

    And for the dude that asked if this legal: yes it is since those dj sets are broadcated online they have no label right. :)

    after 2 weeks.
    my unique visitors is now jumped to around 1900-2200 per day
    but still low earnings (not more then 25 clicks per day getting me as high as $2.5), i really don't know what to do.

    You are dead on there Hendricius..In fact, when that happens and you have several sites, all your sites in that account will suffer. When that happens, removing the site that has the worst CTR will bring the others back up to normal. Then if you remove the adsense from the offending site for awhile, add new content, and then you can put Adsense back on and you should be ok.

    I think you should try to increase your CTR. Try different ad units like, 336*280 or 250*250 etc, and put them in different ad placements. Try different combinations of ad units and ad placements to see which one gives you the best CTR.

    As CTR increases, the earnings will also increase.

    You traffic is good enough and wish i can get the same traffic.
    However, it is better if you can study on the keyword and use high density of the keyword suh as music, dj etc to get matched ads, it can helps to increase the CTR

    For a CTR rate of 3% and click rate of .3$, you should have earn 20-25$. I just searched in Seo Tools for adsense revenue calculator!!:confused:

    My earnings are pretty good this days. I have 4 $ for 20 clicks and i think this is good enough for this period.

    wish i had %3 CTR!
    I understand it's against adsense tos to tell what it exact ctr rate, but mine is lot lower then %3...
    Well, I just guess that this whole "music" niche pays really low... ;(

    I would recommend adding affiliate offers instead of AdCENTS.

    Still your earning compared to mine is far much better, $2 a day is quite commendable. Am also learning how to improve on my adsense earning

    Well, that happens even to the best of us. :D

    Try changing ad placement, bringing targetted traffic...

    I don't know about your earnings but i must say that i am a true house fan and your site made my day (dance) now i am currently listening the songs from the videos you go it in and i felt like i must say that they are awsome :) I added to favourites your page :p
    Btw i was also thinking of making a page with content about house music, djs, events, etc, but i'm not sure if it is really leagall if you make a " download " section and there are mp3s to download etc .. :)
    anyway - you got a nice site :p
