How To Increase Your Adsense CPC Earnings

Ever logged into your Google Adsense account to see that your CTR (Click Through Rate) has increased but your earnings haven’t?

In this scenario, you’re practically making like 1 cent per click and you’ve got Made For Adsense sites to blame. See how you can increase your Adsense CPC earnings by keeping ads by Made For Adsense sites away from your blog.

Obsessed with checking my Google Adsense stats every day, I’ve seeking wonderful ways of increasing the cost per click on ads appearing on my pages and the Adsense Competitive Filter is one of those ways.

Before I continue allow me to explain what Made For Adsense sites are. MFA sites are sites with little or no quality content & loads of Google Adsense ads, that rely on Google Adwords to bring traffic to them.

Due to their lack of quality targeted content, they don’t get search engine traffic and so they use cheap Google Adwords campaigns to draw traffic.

Using Ads Black List & Google Adsense’s Competitive filter you can keep some of these 1 cent per click MFA ads off your blog.

Simply register for an Ads Black List account then log int your account page and submit your URL, Web Page Title and Your site/blogs keywords and submit it.

Afterwards click on Generate List in the sidebar and Ads Black List will automatically create a list of 200 MFA sites based on your blog’s/site’s keywords.

Log into your Adsense Account, click on Competitive Filter then copy and paste the list of 200 MFA sites generated by Ads Black List into the given space.

This should take effect in 2 hours.

Note: There’s no absolute guarantee whatsoever that this will increase your adsense CPC earnings. I’m going to watch and see how things go with this feature on my blog.

Thanks to Subhash of Technade & John Cow for such wonderful information.

    you can particularly point the keyword to google adsense. You can target the hig paying keyword in your post instead of let google determine it for you.

    That’s an interesting concept. I think I want to see how well it works for you before deciding to go that route. I just worry that Google will come out with something saying that’s scamming their system; you know how they are.

      LOL. I wrote that post in 2009 I think. No issues since then and it did the trick but then again, a lot more MFA sites are cropping up each day.
