    Hey guys when I first started adsense Im was getting maybe a dollar or two per a click and now one day it started to be about 50 cents a click then 30 cents the next day now it's only around 9 cents a click..

    How can I reboost this back to what it use to be? Is there any way? Thanks guys! :)

    You could try putting fewer ad blocks on your page, or reducing the number of ads shown if you have a lot.

    Adsense CPC is also calculated on things like click through rate, relevance, the alignment of the planets, voodoo, etc. There are lots of factors that influence it.

    LoL thanks so Higher CTR = More money per click too? Since it seems when I got rid of the "Advertise on this site " I got a higher CTR but maybe less money per a click is that true?

    are you using channels to track which ads are highest performing. Have you made changes to ad placement?

    Sometimes it depends on when you check your earnings. Early in the day when you only have one or two clicks, the revenue per click can be quite high. Then it decreases during the day as more clicks occur.

    My theory on this is that high-paying advertisers are blowing out their daily budgets early in the day. After that, the lower paying advertisers take over.

    In my experience a huge factor (but only one of many) is quality of those clicks.

    Let's say its an add of online shop, a person who clicked it, registers there and buys sth - that’s a pretty cool conversion so CPC will be pretty high. If there's now conversion, in this example no registration and no purchase, you'll get shitty CPC.
