    just started using adsense on an establashed 7 year site. i love my niche so i'm not about to abandon it.

    Page impressions Clicks Page CTR Page eCPM [?] Earnings
    11,504 100 0.87% $0.50 $5.76

    100 clicks and $5.76 = 0.0576 per click

    I've read on here some of you guys get an average of 65 cents per click. Or did I read it wrong and it was actually 0.065 cents?

    0.05 per click is okay compared to other niches. Remember there are niche that get 0.01 per click. Try to improve your ctr get it up to 1% then try 2-3%

    The $/click is low.. :( But I suggest trying to improve the $ on your site by changing the positions and stuff and trying to get a higher CTR. Experiment a bit.

    i get about 25 to 50 cents per click some time more and my ctr is always around 10% to 16%.
    after 1 and 1/2 years with adsense its pretty much stable some time a little more or less but always about the same.

    What's the niche? .05-.06 a click is low, but many advertisers have trimmed their budgets because of the economy...

    the poor paying niche has to do with a fan site focused on one mainstream movie celebrity.

    very less revenue for that much of clicks IMO

    and i think u are getting lot of mfa sites ads which may give 0.01$ for a click

    btw try to change image and text ads and see results thats better to get better results
