Why US traffic pays more ?

    I'm wondering why US traffic pays more for adsense ? :confused:

    This is obvious if you live in just opposite of american time. I always get $0.0x in my time and x.0 in american time from the ad clicks. :mad:

    Does anyone have any comments ?

    And FYI, the site is about hosting.

    What do you mean by "US traffic"? Do you mean "US ads"? If so, that's because more companies use AdSense in US and, thus, the bids in keywords are much higher. In Brazil, there almost isn't ads enough to fill 3 ads in a page in any topic...

    No, I meant clicks from USA.

    There will be ads that is shown all over the world right ?

    And I guess web hosting is general and companies will be paying to show all over the world.

    When you setup an AdWords account you can specify which country you want your ads displayed in, so you are probably getitng higher CPCs from the US market where it is more competative and bids are higher.

    @MattL,

    Its obvious that I get better cpc when at night. ( India) which is exactly opposite of American time. Thus I guess its from USA.

    @flak,
    Is it possible to specify different cpcs for different markets ?

    Regards,
    Tuning

    Yes, create a copy of your campaign with a different max cpc and set that campaign for a different geographic location.

    US clicks generally cost more because they are generally worth more.

    Americans are arrogant about their money and corporations know it so they take more of it. Americans will spend more to impress their neighbors, forget common sense.

    Run american ads and ride the wave. This is the next best thing to TV and we know how americans follow TV like sheep.

    Now let's get our cut!

    US companies focus more on advertising and have deep pockets.

    Come on man, why do you have to tease the guy. Obviously his country didn't have internet access in 2005 and he's catching up. You arrogant North American

    oh right, so once they got internet access, it was common sense for them to go back many pages in this forum, pick this thread and just reply?

    Maybe he thought it was 2005? YOU DON'T KNOW THIS IGNORANT PIG AMERICAN! :p:p:p Why is it always pig American though? Why not baby American? There are so many nice words to use in the English dictionary.

    Just kidding. But yeah don't dig up old threads. :cool:
