I'm a newbie to adsense, but I've discovered in just over a week that there are no shortcuts.
I now place all scrapers, made for adsense directories and webmasters buying traffic on my blocklist. The bottom line $$ has gone up by 20%, and I think smartpricing has re-evaluated my site as a more profitable bit of real estate and shoved up the price it charges advertisers / give me per click.
Where can you get lists of all these "scrapers, made for adsense directories and webmasters buying traffic", and how do you find them?
it's not a published list. I just look at my site a couple of times a day, and check the ads displayed. if I see one I don't like I block it.
There does happen to be a little someone named AdSenseAdvisor that WORKS FOR GOOGLE that posts here.
That aside, I'd say just build a quality site and update. Content is king and gearing everything to manipulate a system as fickle as AdSense seems stupid. Especially since it is going to be updated and changed regularly. What works today will likely backfire tommorrow.
The 2 photo reportages about them are only short time indexed in Google and just right now only in German, not jet translated to English.
They made in July more than $100
So the lesson is very simple
Do not trick around, just write about interesting things.

You develop the list by Yourself by using the AdSense preview tool on Your pages.
Brag on your trick to outsmart smartpricing.
The "trick", if there is one, is not to employ tricks, not to attempt to outsmart Google and never to brag about what works for you. So the premise of the question is flawed.
Now if the question had been posed as "share some of your stategies for maximising returns given smart pricing" that's a more interesting question - one which has been discussed at length multiple times but where there is always something new to learn. And it is not just semantics.
Lots of people waste lots of time looking for magic tricks that open the keys to a kingdom of AdSense riches. There aren't any, so it's a terrible waste of time. Well, if copious amounts of hard work and research, keeping up to date with the changes in the PPC world and reading, learning and experimenting are tricks then maybe there are, but I have a feeling they are not the ones being looked for.
What did you did when you were desperate for hits/clicks or wanted to outsmart smart pricing.
Stopped worrying about AdSense and developed some new sections on my site which I knew my visitors would find both valuable and useful.
My Adsense earnings went up loads.
Or go to the help section of the adsense site.
Personally I'd advise looking at the ads that actually appear, as the tool isn't overly accurate IMHO
tried it on brand new sites and got $100 by second month. thrice.
there are no short cuts for long term success. shortcuts will only cut you short very soon!
