My google adsense earnings seem to have been frozen

[lauraca94]

Since like five months ago my google earnings haven't increased, not even a penny and i already tried changing the ads around but nothing seems to work. What may be causing this and how can i fix this ?

I don't know if there's much you can do. Adsense is not that well paying in the first place. I only use adsense if there's no other way to monetize my site. But if I do use adsense, then I test multiple themes, ad layouts, and background colours. Sometimes you can be surprised at how a small change can make a BIG difference.

I would continue to test. I would also look to see whether I could monetize in other ways....

While some niches definitely pay crap, there are quite a few niches that pay extremely well.

You should definitely not miss out on proper keyword research which is a master skill.

The best niches for Adsense are the ones where people specifically come online and are desperate to find a solution. And these niches pay extremely well.

Finding the right niches takes a lot of testing, and continue failing. The honest truth is that once you got a feeling for niches, you can find a few new niches per hour.

I agree to an extent. But if you're struggling to make a MFA site profit, then you probably haven't picked a keyword with high CPC. In order to be successful with adsense, you need to pick the right niches and keywords ahead of time.

And if a keyword has a decent CPC that usually means that the keyword is commercially viable. Even in that case, you can probably make more money by selling or being an affiliate of the solution to the keyword your promoting.

Adsense can be decent paying in some cases. But other monetization strategies are usually more profitable.

You only have one site? why would your earnings increase unless you are getting more traffic? has your SERP position gone up?
