    My website, http://www.karkartoon.com gets quality traffic and quality clicks, but my freaking ad values are killing me, i average like .01 or .02 cent per click, its making me go crazy. I know i have some arabic content and maybe thats why its low in those sections, but in my English sections, they are still low as hell. I've tried everything, WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO TO RAISE THE VALUE OF MY ADS?

    I have different sections (within the pictures category) with different niches, some perform ok, but most are making almost NOTHING, like 2 cents for 4 clicks. Please any advice would be grateful.

    Thanks

    Hi,

    2 or 4 cents a click isn't "nothing". It can add up when you have lots of visitors and your get a higher CTR.
    You didn't mention your CTR but the easiest thing to do is try to improve your CTR by trying different ad positions and layouts.

    I know this doesn't solve the low CPC but it should increase your revenue, which is what you wants.

    Every site and every niche has a totally different list of low paying MFA websites, so you need to make your own list up. DO NOT use the list below - it won't help you (most likely)

    I agree its probably worth going to town on your competitive ad filter.
    Try the list for a few days, see if it helps

    But definitely download the Google adsense preview tool, go to each low paying page on your site... search out the sites that are made for adsense and add them to your filter.

    Other than that i have a feeling that you get better and more relevant ads (higher paying) as you increase your pagerank.

    Also...... just looked at your site :) nice.

    I have a feeling that the ads you have up are low paying because they are about jokes etc, this is probably a low paying category lets say when compared to car insurance

    set up channels, and see which ads are working better

    Maybe try adding content that is more specific like comedy club tickets or theater tickets etc...any see what happens

    Wish you success

    have you blocked the mfa and low paying sites ? adsblacklist.com is a good resourse to find these types of sites

    Sorry to say, it will be difficult to change that low pay unless you can change the ads. Can you try to make the title of the page matching each pic you are showing ? Then maybe the ads will change. If you show a pic of a man selling insurance, the title need to be insurance and there has to be keywords on the page too.
    Also the hihghet paying ads are the ones on the top of the page. Your visitors will most likely click the ones on the side, the least paying ads. I would remove the ones on the top.
