Google it or Not???

    I have placed clicksor ads in one of my sites, which have about 15,000 unique visitors. Clicksor ads make about $8 per/mo. However, now I am planning to replace clicksor ads with Google adsense. I heard that Google adsense pay very little amount. What should I do? Choose Google or continue with Clicksor?

    It doesnt hurt to try it. However, I agree that google does skimp on payout, bigtime. Unless... you target those mile long disease keywords.

    I think it's really going to depend on your site and your niche, and I agree that the best thing to do is to test one against the other to determine which brings in more revenue. I can't say that I agree that AdSense has low payouts, however - this may be true for selected topics and niches, but generally speaking, they have among the highest payouts in the industry. That's been my experience, anyway. :)

    Google pay much more than Clicksor. There are some keywords like: mortgage, credit card, loan etc that worth more than 50$/click. It all depends of the content of your website and from what country your visitors come.

    Google will pay more than clicksor. I had clicksor in my website and the ads dont seem to be "contextual" at all but that obviously depends on your niche. But google has a better system and will show ads depending on your site which is likely to convert well instead of totally unrelated ads (as clicksor tends to do that a lot).
