    US traffic pays much more, Maybe you should try an ad agency from Indonesia?

    Check your analytic graph. There is a word called "surge" or "stiff" . If your click increased smoothly, You would not have suffered it. But whenever traffic or Income in a site suddenly jumps ( not your fault, based on your article it may happen) CPC comes down. And the more I see these I strongly start getting What James Colin Try to say "With AdSense do write anything but technology!" Techno blogs are worst Hit!

    and also the part about the 21 clicks being from indonesia.. face it, if you don't live in a western country, don't have local sites. Otherwise you'll probably get low cpc and other troubles.

    i clicked ads on some sites when i found helpful content on them, that's the way i say 'thanks'. but for being living in Indonesia, can't help with the low cpc rate for developing countries visitors

    Yeah it's definitely because of your location. Traffic from the US is what you should be targeting for higher CPC in most cases.

    There are a few reasons why you might be receiving low paying clicks with Google Adsense, Some topics or subjects, also known as keywords, simply don't pay that much.

    All results are estimates only Adsense to the finish. I have seen some changes during the day as well, and at the end of the month.

    I did not worry too much about it. I think it is considered an integral part of work with Adsense. If you do not see many, many clicks does not generate income, or occurs in a very routine basis, it seems a normal part of the process.

    GOOD LUCK TO YOU
