Hi, I have 3000 impression and 182 click and cpm is 0.65 but my earnings is too low i.e its only 1.98$. Can anyone help me to increase it. Thank You.

Wow that's pretty low, it might be that adsense is discounting some invalid clicks.

What type of site you have, it also depends on your site content too

I am getting ads related to virus and spyware. I am getting around 0.01 per click.

One thing that might help... You might be able to use section targeting in order to increase the relevancy of your ads

3000 impression and 182 click and cpm is 0.65

Your cpm just means you will make .65 for every 1000 page impressions. .65*3 = 1.95

I'd blame your problem on click fraud.

1 cent per click is not at all unheard of, but it is low.

Is your site about anti virus and spyware topics?

Are your ads placed on the page where folks are more likely to click on them? Ad location can make a big difference. You can place the ads in better positions without having them overpower the page content.

Have you tried different ad block sizes and colors? Sometimes blending ads work well, on other sites it doesn't.

Have you used AdLink Units? They often fit in spots where regular adblocks wouldn't fit, or work, as well.

Umm I did had a site that used to get Antivirus and Spybot type of ads and they pay real good, but there is also an issue I used to have, there were a lot of advertisers that I consider mfa sites. So make sure to check which advertisers you getting and block those that are mfa sites.

The best ads in that area, are those tha come from the actual vendor of famous antivirus ect... like norton, mcafee ect..

If you getting ads from those reputable companies and you still getting that low cpm, then you must be getting fraudulent clicks from some people.

182 clicks out of 3000 impressions is a CTR of about 6%.
Not bad at all, so that's not the problem.
Perhaps you are seriously smartpriced?
As others have mentioned, spyware ads don't have to pay that bad.

Perhaps a detail, but your agreement with Google states that your are not allowed to share this kind of information with us.
Are you aware of that?

While he might be disallowed to share such data, he's only risking less than $2 if they take his account away over it. Seems worth the risk of getting the feedback.

Can anyone suggest a better working niche..
Thanks for all your Replies mates.
