    Well yesterday I got 333 clicks and made $4.85 for one of my sites.

    I did the math and that is exactly $0.014 per click

    What is wrong?

    think it's normal? so little? lately google pays increasingly less. But we have seen in many unique content is paid very well. conclusion? fresh content = $ $ $

    I have got loads and loads of fresh content
    I think Google doesnt count some of the clicks.

    You gotta be pissed off with that ay. Is it the movie trailer niche websites thats giving you such low clicks? I would have thought they'd be high.

    That's pretty bad in fact. What's your niche and where is the traffic coming from?

    Some niches just suck so bad.
    Its waste of time and effort to even start a website based on those niches.
    Because no matter how many visitors you get and how many clicks the earnings will always suck
    and make you sad. If you get loads of traffic I highly and personally recommend approaching people for direct traffic based on ePCM and making a lot more than adsense...

    Is this a proxy or something? If so, I would expect that since its a bad niche.

    Not sure, but I think entertainment Niche are low paying.

    Anyway, try to increase your traffic.

    Traffic = $$$

    You can block up to 200 URLs using the Competitive Filter inside your AdSense control panel.
    Maybe you will be able to block some of the low paying sites...

    I have got a few sites which pay only 0.01 cent per click

    I have a lot of traffic from India and it is quite common for many niches in traffic from India

    Mind sharing your site? The entertainment niche is low paying I presume, but there could be big amount of invalid clicks, you should do lot more for 333.clicks.

    entertainment niche usually pays less. but penny per click is too low. is it just yesterday or thats what you get all the time? cause sometimes you will see real low pay and sometimes there will be high paying clicks. hows your average clicks
