Hello everyone! I have one question. In 7 days i had something like 22000 impressions, 48 clicks and only 5 $ (all these values aren't exactly the same). I mean, it is ok? I think something's bad here. Let me know what you think about this. Thank you, Cristian
This is called Google SmartPricing. This, in my eyes, is the ONLY issue with Google . ...don't worry, you're not the first one who is suffering this fate - majority of the accounts get SmartPriced within a month of their being activated.
This means that the click efficiency of your AdSense account has gone for a six. In layman's terms..every click that is acknowledged by Google will give you lesser money than it would have given you in the past. Unfortunately, theres nothing you can do once your account is SmartPriced - well, not to my knowledge atleast.
That is a horrible CTR. I would look at optimizing your ads. Darren Rowse at ProBlogger is running series on ad optimization right now you may want to look at Series intro: http://www.problogger.net/archives/2008/05/09/tactics-to-increase-your-adsense-earnings-overnight/ First Post: http://www.problogger.net/archives/...-to-increase-your-adsense-earnings-overnight/
Your CTR is low. Try to optimize your ads placements. 48 clicks for $5. You are getting more than many people get. I get $0.03 all the time.
Thank you very much! Actually what i own is a forum, not a site. If someone's interested to give me some advices about the ad placement, please send me a PM and i'll send you the link. Thank you very much once again and if you have other comments about this, please share with us -Cristian
May be the partial monopoly (qualitative and trust of publishers and advertisers) have made google pay less i am also suffering the same in my new site www.bollywoodhott.com just getting some half-1$ per cpm
your site has great impressions. are you sure you're only getting 48 clicks? anyway the earnings per click (0.10) is really good already. the problem is in your CTR. try to increase your clickthrough rate either by adding more adsense blocks in your pages, or changing the ad's placement/color to make it more noticable. aim 10-20% CTR, but no higher than that if possible. you will see great results. by the way you're lucky than me. i used to earn $3 at 80 clicks (20% CTR) and my mistake was low paying keywords.
