I am tired of getting $0.01 - $0.05 per click on a high traffic tech blog. Most of my posts are based on new gadgets and softwares. These topics attract higher revenue, but in my case I am loosing hope gradually. I guess my site has got smart priced. So, would it work if I remove ads from all my sites for a period of 3-4 days or so and then again start displaying ads? Will this method provide me a decent CPC rate? And also, I am not continuously posting on my blog since a two months. Does this factor affect the Google SmartPrice? Presently I'm getting around $1200, but sites of my blog caliber are earning more than $2000 Thanks in advance.
Google Smartprice affects your entire account, not just one domain. So if the other domains on your account aren't being smartpriced, your account is fine. If you want proof, change the adsense code on your site to the adsense of a friend of yours you know for 2 days or so, and have him tell you what he made from the site -- see if what he gets paid per click is much higher than yours.
