Seeing the many report that the EPC was $50+ and now only $0.4. I watched my own stats, and see the same thing. Because my traffics are very low on M word, and my site on M is purely informative not productive, so it is possible that they are "smart priced" to very low. The best way to see what caused it, is to see if anyone else still enjoy high payment.

Assuming new applicants are not effected by Smart Pricing, there must be somebody still get high EPC on it.

Anyone can confirm if low EPC on M word is over all or smart priced?

I think confirmed legit websites still get pay out but google must go through them to apporve otherwise the whole market would be flooded.

If you have tried running an M word page then you would see that most of the adsense link to other M word pages, and these pages have the links to lawyers pages on adsense which i am guessing means they get the big $$$$.

I have tried using similar content as them but it does not work. This has led me to believe that only special M pages get M word Adsense ads with the big dollars.

P.S others get $0.0X

your test is not true. once thing is right that google manually approve M sites. i have few pages showing M adsense same as if I go to search on google. So I bet they should be paid the same. But I am not really sure if those M lawyers are still paying high or I am a victim of Smart Pricing.

There is a cap per click on what a publisher earns. It was in the $8 neighborhood at one point, although I am not sure where it is right now.

i saw $50 $60 in Sep. i also heard others are getting it too. maybe only 1 of them every 10-30 days for somebody mistakenly put $50 in when they mean 50c.

I took my M page down pretty quick. I only tried it a couple days then took it off once i could confirm the EPC.

I heard that the Gravy Train left the M word last year sometime or even 2 years ago.

You know, its funny, no one is actually saying the word. Does anyone here *not* know the word? :)

I don't know what the M word is. Give me a hint. Does it start with M? Maybe M means it's the MONEY word? Which is _? Sorry, that's another topic.

this is an open forum, its not clever to talk in coded language...

the so called m word is mesothelioma

there are plenty of others, personally imho a decent site can earn good money with the adsense programme from low paying words/ads, i would focus on producing a worthwhile site.

Top bid for that word is $0.41 at FindWhat and $0.45 at Enhance.

There's no reason for it to be higher at AdSense.

Meso is dead. At one time it was a lucrative keyword and that was when the inventory for meso clicks was low. However everyone flocked to this keyword, created a surplus of inventory, and now the price per click is a few cents. It's interesting how meso evolved from an unknown to a lucrative trend then to nothing.

You might have been joking, but I actually *can* think of very good keywords for those ltters.

There are thousands of subjects that lead to multiple dollar clicks. You just need to become knowledgeable in a subject and start writing about it. Adwords, Enhance, Overture will tell you which ones are likely to provide multi-dollar clicks. No sense trying to find the highest paying phrases since they are often transient and too competitive. 10 subjects with $2 clicks is easier and safer than one subject with $20 clicks.

Ya, I know this has all been said before...

Just add 1 letter to those words every day. That will keep many coming back to read this thread.

Forum n00b here. Did people modify pages to put the word "mesothelioma" somewhere on them, without having anything to do with the website, just so the ads would show mesothelioma ads and generate good revenue? That's idiotic.

Well, maybe idiotic.

But they were laughing at n00b's like you all the way to the bank!

Yes it is... in the sense that your topic may be related to higher paying topics...

Couldn't this decline on individual sites simply mean that the higher paying bidders simply decided that their rate of return on certain "less than desirable sites" was too low and thus filtered them from the places they wanted to be displayed? This IS an option in Adwords, I understand, is it not, just like in adsense where you can filter the companies you do NOT want to display?"
In that case all that are left are the $.05 bidders who figure it IS beneficial at that price rather than the $50 bidders who have opted out.

I disagree, findwhat and those similar second rate engines always are lower priced.
