Is this normal? I just purchased this site and it is my first time using adsense. I just wanted to run my numbers by you guys to make sure that they look legit. Thanks Date - Impressions - Clicks - Earnings Nov 25 - 25 - 5 - 0.90 Nov 26 - 91 - 11 - 2.29 Nov 27 - 56 - 3 - 2.53 Nov 28 - 61 - 4 - 1.99 Nov 29 - 40 - 1 - 0.35
Looks fine to me... Might want to hide some of that data, but in terms of being legit, sure. Sounds like you haven't been smartpriced yet, though
Erm, what is the problem? 0.35 is good CPC. Not low, not hysterically high. I'd say upper-middle class.
The best way to go about increasing revenue at this point, if you numbers are accurate, is to generate more traffic. Consider posting on forums relevant to the topic of your page. Generate more content. Get yourself listed with more search engines. Work on your pagerank.
as said below, it's not histerically high, but neither is low. i had some clicks taht brought 1 cent, and clicks that broughts a few dollards, depends on the keywords, but urs is really ok
yea, the competition is a little fierce in this environment. It is a proxy. Does that school of thought still apply for a highly saturated market?
This is not bad amount of revenue. you have less amount of traffic. And one more thing is you should not show your Adsense stats like that.
Over time, Google will be able to find out two negative things about your site, if they do indeed exist: 1) Your page is crap with very little unique content (or all stolen content) and pretty much the only outgoing links are for contextual ads or affiliate banners. 2) Visitors are clicking your ads but they aren't performing well for the advertiser and converting into sales/leads based on their tracking. If Google realizes 1 or both of these are going on, they will respond in two ways: 1) Your earnings per click will be dramatically reduced 2) If you use adwords to drive traffic to your site, they will force you to pay much more as a minimum bid because they will give your site what they call a "low quality score" based on the first two points made in this post. Goodluck though... hopefully you'll be on the way up and not the way down!
Looks reasonable, I didn't think proxy sites drew high paying clicks anyway. I'd take .35 per all day long.
Yes, yes, and more yesses The price you're paid per click depends on whatever the adwords customer has decided to pay to have that ad clicked on (if it's a PPC and not a CPM ad), minus Google's fee. Accordingly, you can have clicks that range from fractions of a cent to multiple dollars/click.
In addition to this, the more adsense units you have on your site, the better chance you have that a visitor will click a low paying ad. So, make sure the ad units getting the highest CTR appear highest in your HTML. And, sometimes scaling back from 3 ad units to 2 ad units can help you if you're seeing extremely low cpc. (either that or your keywords/niche just stinks)
