My website : show-gadget.com is having 120 to 150 visitors per day. All traffic is from search engines. But I am getting $0.30 to $0.70 per day. Page views : 160 Clicks : 3 Page CTR : 1.88% CPC : $0.11 This is what I get today. So is that a low earnings ? If so, can someone check the ads placed and advise me whether its fine or not.
The heat map was a test done to see where people's eyes go when they look at a web page Top-left is the hot zone - bottom right the dead zone - google search of "heat map image" is what you need - then place your ads in the corresponding hot zones of your web pages
Page CTR : 1.88% - that's about right - 2% is average adsense CTR I'd have an adsense ad on the home page, and switch to a left nav bar with adsense ad at the top of the nav bar Your site is not optimized for mobile devices - on a cellphone the first thing you see is the left part of the home-page slider - you'd be better off if mobile searchers saw an adsense ad!
Im having a shocker of a month as well. My main 2 sites, have well over 400+ daily uv, and adsense has dropped down to "$0.07" a day.... I guess its a good thing i never went into websites to make money.
You don't need to see any of my sites - just change your theme over to either left side-bar or 3 column layout, and use widgets feature to place your Adsense code in a text box as the first item in left sidebar Also check the theme's demo page by using either firefox web-developer responsive design view option, with setting 320x480, or download and install mobilizer simulator software The 2% average CTR is what I found across many different sites I owned, or managed for clients using either Wordpress, dynamic PHP, or static HTML based sites - the only thing that varied was the average click value - the highest was for money-related niches, which averaged 60 cents per Adsense click - but traffic was almost entirely from Google search results pages - which is highest paying
Both of your CTR and CPC is in average range, you cant expect much from small amount of traffic, work out on generate more traffic to increase your earning
I'd say your CPC is real low. Traffic from any geographical location is good, but if you want to see some real money try getting a boatload of traffic from U.S, Australia, Canada, U.K and Nederlands etc. - just my two cents
I have low earnings myself though I have +500 visitors a day from search engines and social networks, I'm a first search result in 2 popular keywords in my field of expertise [Programming education] but I'm not complaining because I know that the [Product] have a low competition and low CPC, nothing to do about it ..... My plan for myself is to go for something else soon. P.S : I'm using sub-domains and blogspot !
