...reduce the number of ad units on your pages/site.

I've probably written this several times before as this topic comes up often, but until the end of last year I had traditionally been conservative with AdSense, usually only having one ad unit per page.

I changed a couple of my sites to a heavier load of ad units and I haven't noticed any change in average EPC.

The question isn't whether I would rather have 10000 cents or not. The question is what I have to give to get 10000 cents.

If you have something other than AdSense you could plug into that space and earn more than 1 cent per click, you're giving up income.

If you don't have something other than AdSense to plug into that space, you may not be giving up anything. If AdSense allowed publishers to set a minimum, that doesn't automatically mean higher paying ads are always going to appear in that space and/or that visitors are going to click on the ads that appear in that space.
