I've a low converting blog site (becoz of the niche) and another blog that converts well in health niche..

Does the first blog smart price my whole adsense account. Does it cause my health blog earnings to drop?

It was a scary thing for me.. Can anyone explain me the latest google policy on smart pricing? Is it still in force?

what should i do to avoid smart pricing?

    I think it is not a problem at all. Of course, you can use another adsense account, such as your parent's.

    The only way to avoid smart pricing is to create content is high quality. Most of the actions that the Google adsense team takes is based on visitor behaviour. If "conversions" are low from people clicking on ads at your website, then google will decrease the amount of money advertisers have to pay.

    Google is looking to protect their advertisers first and foremost. If you can allow PPC advertisers to profit off your ads, then google will be more willing to give you a slice of the pie.

      I think you mean the only way to avoid smart pricing, is to improve
      the quality of your traffic. In fact, if your content is very high quality,
      relatively speaking, it means people are satisfied. No need to click
      on an ad. Your content needs to suck just enough to leave a reader
      wanting more.

      Your ads must match the traffic.

        Yeah sorta. The bottom line is that google tracks conversion from ad clicks. So if you're website doesn't offer a reasonable conversion rate, then your site could be smart priced.

        It's possible to use high quality content in a way that presells the advertisers. Or entices the reader to research the topic further. Of course, the easier way is to make the visitor just want to get the heck off your page.

        As long as the conversion rate isn't abnormally low. Google probably won't smart price your account.
