Question Low paying adsense ads

What's the best way to weed out low paying adsense ads. I think I have a lot of them showing up on my site. I'm averaging less than 10 cents per click. Or is that normal?

I think that's pretty normal. Most of my ads seem to pay between 8 and 25 cents per click. Once and a while I'll get a $1.00+ but not often.

Seems interesting! Does it make sense to launch my new website with adsense adds or should I wait until I build traffic?

I think you should wait until you have traffic. If you don't have any visitors, no one is going to click on your ads anyway so might as well wait.

I have also noticed that my adsense ads are low paying. It's good to know that it is not only me.

Well, no one actually know what is the percentage google is giving out to the website owner. For example, advertiser pay 1.00 for a click, how much is google taking and how much is the website owner getting from the 1.00 is really unknown.

Perhaps it is good to also test out affiliate programs or other ad type, might be able to get a better yield.
