    Hello,

    I want to hear from someone running a big site mainly targeting Indian and Pakistani audience, kinda of desi site you know. Do you monetize your website with AdSense? If yes, is CPC any good?

    Help will be appreciated.

    Thanks

    I stay away from them. But my friend gets tons of traffic and he sells his banner ant text spots. So he does pretty well with it.

    depends on your site. if you have a site for that region, then you can expect more clicks from the traffic there. non-us traffic usually pay low but if you have high traffic in the local market, then that can make up for it.

    are you really runing a site from gitmo?

    oh yes, they do convert very well. but, comparing to US and Canada visitors, the CPC will be much lower.
