Hey, I have a few questions about smart pricing by Google. What are the reasons that you get smart priced by Google? How to get rid of this bullshit other than filtering the MFA sites? Any sensible approach to avoid it once and for all? Would love to hear what you have learned about it by experimenting, testing and tracking. Thanks in advance.
The main reason you will get smartpriced by google is the quality of your traffic is poor. You can read a couple of my previous posts that can help you in eliminating the smartpricing problem. Why You Won't Make Any Money With Google Adsense Part 1. Why You Won't Make Any Money With Google Adsense Part 2.
i thought smart pricing has to do with Adwords users; they use low paying keywords to bring traffic to their site but their website has the high paying keywords and thus they make big money.
Thanks a lot, Victoria! Those are the answers to my questions. To the point! Looking forward to the next post...
Smart pricing is the pits but Google wants the best results for its advertisiers which make me happy as I advertise with google. You must have poor quality visitors. try and get some quality content that ppl will want, then add the adsense code. Many ppl start a site, add some content then add the adsense code immediately. Then complain when you get smart priced. The best way to stop getting smart priced is the delete all you adsense code for a month. Generate as much interest in your content during that time and then after 30 days add your code again. If you get smart priced again, repeat the above procedure. If that fails, forget the site and start a new site that ppl want and are looking for. Those quality buyers are what google wants and then they will give you good paying ads.
