Sub-penny clicks from Google CSE?

Some clicks aren't adding revenue

I've noticed that sometimes when the number of click-throughs I get on Google CSE adverts increases by 1, the earnings displayed doesn't increase at all. Am I getting less than a penny for some clicks? I've noticed it twice today...

Any idea what's going on?

Could these free click-throughs be from public service announcements?

It's possible the click reporting is not in synch with the amount reporting.

Of course, you may be getting some very low amount clicks along with some high amount clicks. There's not much you can do about it at the current time except to throw the baby out with the bath water.

That's another possibility I was considering. The amount doesn't seem to "kick up" after some time has passed, though.

I know, but < $0.01 for a click-through? Is that normal?

LOL, well I'll keep the baby around a little bit longer to see if it grows up a bit :)
