    I'm not gonna whine this time.

    62 clicks = US$0.88 :p

    This has been happening for few weeks now.


    It's time to move on. :D

    This is surly invalid click action performed on your website. Take care about this otherwise you may lost your account.

    Even if it was why would Adsense show invalid clicks on your account? That would be stupid.

    Every click they count and show you should be a valid click, if not they should't be shown to you.

    Nah. I'm not getting click bombed. I have around 1400 visitors daily. I'm just not making any money with this site. I got the feeling - more than people click less I earn.


    I should get affilate instead of adsense.

    I never heard of this story. may be invalid click. google will not tell you about the invalid clicks, but sure they will ban your account.

    Install adsense clicklogger and block those low paying urls in your adsense account.

    Either you have a low paying niche, been smart-priced, or both.

    Yeah, it does look like smartpricing.

    Are your clicks usually much better paying than that?

    Have you disabled PSA's?

    If yes then those definitely are invalid clicks, google does shows invalid clicks, take this matter seriously and have a look.

    I use the competitive filter to get rid of the garbage ones - depending on your niche, it may be just be low pricing but I found that if I remove the ones from companies that have nothing to do with my niche but buy those keywords, others like shopzilla and ebay which again are useless to my audience and then the MFA stuff, I usually do better.

    Plus they are not offering anything of value to my users.

    I used to earn a lot more than that. I've blocked 200 MFA sites. Niche is low (entertainment - celebrity) paying but that doesn't mean i can't recieve at least 0.05 or 0.08$ clicks. It seems that I am getting 0.01,2,3 clicks all the time.


    Thanks for you advice. I will try this next :D

    Can you do that? TOS says you cant tell people to click, but can you tell people not to click?

    you cant tell not to click on ads, since that also attracts people to ads and its against adsense tos

    I had the same problem for about 2 weeks this month which really sucks im not sure if i'll be able to catch up to get a payment for this month but I have seemed to have fixed the problem, check your filtered list, those ads might be paying more then you think.
