Hi,

I am trying to increase my AdSense earnings and I already covered all the basics, with all that already done:
- Good site content;
- Good amount of content;
- Good ad placement;
- Good ad colours;
- Good ad formats;
- Good number of Ads;
- Traffic is related, mostly organic from Google searches (firts place for the main keyword among over 1 million results);
- Blocked MFA sites using Google AdSense Preview Tool (all Advertisers at this moment that advertise on my site via AdSense/AdWords have real company web sites);
- Included google_ad_section_start to increase relevance;
- Included Keywords with High Overture;
- Included Keywords with the Highest CPC in my field (a branch of Education);
- Included Keywords with low competing sites (results on Google);
- Included Keywords with high number of Advertisers on AdWords;
- Included Keywords with a higher number of estimated clicks on AdWords.

Some more info:
- Site PageRank is PR3 (was PR4 before the last update);
- Around 100 uniques a day;
- Site is 8 Eight years old;
- Traffic is almost all from Brazil, from portuguese-speaking visitors (site content is also in portuguese);
- A not good point is that the number of site pages is very low since I am reestructuring it at this moment;
- CTR is quite good, above average;
- Estimated CPC, from AdWords, is mostly from US$5. to US$10.


THE PROBLEM
The problem is that I only make US$0.10 (ten cents) per click, maximum 15 cents and even though only occasionally, what is certainly too little. This is happening for about 2 two months now.


THE QUESTION
- Can I find out exactly how much each Advertiser is paying and this way also block those bidding on the 5cents/10cents keywords?
- So, since I can not change of field, because there is where I work, what else can I do to increase my earnings from AdSense?
- Is there anything else that I am not covering?


Thanks in advance for all your support.

Thanks, Damion. That article gave me some other good ideas to improve my CTR. Thanks again.

However, I am still looking for a more precise way to find out How Much an Advertiser is Paying?

If anyone knows, please share.

Thanks in advance.
