Hi guy!
I create an Adsense Account last years. And now, I just got 34$.
I don't understand why every ad on my blog alway have the same price:
1 Cent/Click. Although I fillter ads on my Account too.
I just wonder why people can get more money from Adsense. I read a lot of tips, tricks on Adsense blog, Forum blog. But all that articles may be not help me much.
I hope someone help me, and give me some useful trick.
That's what I need...

    Dont you get paid for PAGE IMPRESSIONS?

    I get paid for page impression and clicks. Sometime google pays me $4 for 4 clicks and sometime $0.5 for 4 clicks. So it varies many of the time.

    You can try google searchbar to get some extra income.

      What niche are you targeting? Some niches just pay low and you can not do much about it. Are you filtering the low paying ads with the competitive ad filter? Are you using image ads, text ads or both? PM me your url and I will see if I can help you.

        Maybe your math is off. $34 would be 3,400 clicks at 1 cent a click.
        To get 3,400 straight clicks at 1 cent would be quite a record.

    Seems like you have a low-paying niche. Trust me, there are better niches out there. I would go to the Google keyword tool and look up the cost of certain keywords before I relied on a particular niche for adsense income.

  • You might have added filters but still you are targeting low CPC ads. There are many ways in which you are paid. But first thing depends upon the niche you are targeting.

    Lawyers, insurance, finance, debt etc are paying high. IF you are targeting then and still getting low CPC then its a real problem.

    There is no assurity that you will get paid for CPM or even there will time of day or month or year when there will be any CPM shown on your website. Its all depend upon the advertiser if they choose your website to show their CPM ads.

    Try using Google adwords keyword tool to find the CPC of keywords of adv that are being shown on your website.

    This will make your doubt clear.

    Sounds like Smart-Pricing. Which means after the people clicked on your ads they failed to convert into sales for the advertisers, so Google is paying you pennies per click, since they are worth about that much. You need to change your content, and maybe the keywords you're going after. Whatever you have now is not working.

    It is hard to dispense advice if you simply throw up a year's worth of aggregated adsense money and a sweeping declaration that your cpc is always a penny.

    What are your keywords and in what niche do they belong? Identify that, then check google's adwords tool or spyfu. If they report pennies per click, well then, you're stuck with that unless you decide to change your content. You can't expect high cpc to materialize if advertisers are unwilling to pay for it.

    Yes. language of my website's VietNam - English
    But 80% visit from Vietnam. Acctually, sometimes I got 0.02$/click, but not much
    I just use text ad, link ad. Because in Vietnam, image ad can't display (sometime it displays but alway display Google public ad)

    1 Cent/Click or 2 Cent/Click is too low, I guess the major reason is just because your 80% visit from Vietnam

    That's what I need...
    Start with the basic...

    1. Do a keyword research using Google Adword Keyword Tool and register a domain.
    *** Example of keyword: home remedies for acne (27k / 22k search volume)
    *** Register a domain: homeremediesforacne.biz (still available 1st come 1st serve LOL)

    2. Install a wordpress blog and use a theme like this

    3. Write articles about your "acne niche" or rewrite articles from ezinearticles or goarticles.make sure to rewrite articles manually... not just spinning. Post it on your blog..

    4. Now that you have a blog with articles (at least 2), start promotion.

    5. Promote the keyword "home remedies for acne" in forums, social bookmarks, feeds, link directories, article directories.

    6. Watch money coming in your adsense account the moment your site reaches Google's first page with searched keyword "home remedies for acne".

    No need for expensive guides, tools, software, etc... so simple.. Only you need to focus on it... And if this first site become successful, repeat the process and create more sites as long as you can handle the management and promotion..

    I think this the only "brief but concise" advise I can share with you... (sorry for my English)

    Good luck!
