    It sucks for me too, but I'm using it for few websites, the clicks are around 1% for me, earning me ~0.01c...
    But its OK, my websites are in Bulgarian language and the copmanies here, using adwords, are really really poor, so as the biddings for the keywords ;)

    That's strange, with AdSense for search you can't say that the ads aren't targeted enough. Something strange has definitely been going on the last 1-2 weeks as many of our eCPMs have dropped drastically. Time to start testing more affiliate ads in place of AdSense I think...

    a) You could be smartpriced
    b) Your site's topic could revolve around low paying keywords
    c) A combination of a) and b)

    I've actually received pretty pleasing results with the search box. I only get a couple of clicks per day through it but the CPC ends up being more than the normal ads.

    I never get any pay from search. Few people would use the search function of some website. They would go to google homepage or google toolbar
