    i have been using the advanced segments on my website that has been running for more than a year. its targeted to mexico in my webmaster tools. im seeing that spain visitors make more money than mexico.

    now the approximate numbers.
    it has 120000 unique visits/month, and its making like 360$/month.
    country of visits /month:
    spain visitors : 18000
    mexico visitors : 49000

    adsense earnings /month:
    spain visitors : $150
    mexico visitors : $90

    the click rate, cpm is higher on spain too.

    so as you can see, everything says that spain is more profitable. should i change my analytics settings to spain? do you think that could improve my earnings? im hoping that when spain is the selected country, i will appear in better positions on serps on spain and lower positions on mexico, am i correct? or it wont make a difference?
    or do you think i have to look deeply, or its a no brainer?

    This is a silly question but are your sites in these countries available in multiple languages or just the primary language of the country?

    @lex350 I think spain has the same language as mexico.
    I support changing target to spain if you get payed better from spanish visits.

    I figured that. I was just wondering if he made the pages also available in English as well.
