Hi everyone,

Has anyone had the same problem as me? I'm getting clicks on my adsense ads on my website but not getting paid for some of them. Have I missed something about the system?

Sometimes the clicks may be for a PSA instead of an actual ad. In that case you don't get paid for those clicks.

Cheers TechieGuy. I was a bit confused. I actually thought the system had changed for some reason. Thanx again yeah.

Hello Everyone,

I'm new to the forum, and new to trying to work a business using the internet. I have a question and that is. I am getting a lot of impressions in my adsense account but rarely get any clicks. I get between 2 and 300+ impressions and I never make any money. Is there something I'm doing wrong I have adsense on my website pages, but I don't understand why I'm not making any money in the account. Can someone help me understand why that is.

Thanks,
Martha

Hi Martha,

There could be a few reasons why this is. It could be the niche (some niches just ignore Google Ads), it could be the placement, color, or layout of the Adsense block, etc.

I think it's best if you shared a link to your page, and I will tell you everything I know Also, there are quite a few members who are experienced with Adsense, who I am sure will chime in too.

Thanks Sherif,

The link to my site is www.incomeworking.com I appreciate anything any advice I can get to help me start earning in my adsense account. I get a lot of traffic to my website last month I had more than 5000 total visits and so far this month I already have over 2000, and as I said I get a lot of impressions but very few if any clicks and no money. My website offer simple home based business opportunities.

Thanks for all the help.
Martha

Martha,

If I had a website in the make-money-online niche and getting this kind of traffic a month, Adsense would be at the bottom of my monetization strategies. All the different programs you review, I am sure, pay out a lot more than Adsense would.

This is a tough niche. Are you generating income from the make-money programs? If you are, then I would focus on expanding that, if not, then I would address the reasons why I am not generating profit from that kind of traffic, but honestly (others may disagree) I wouldn't worry about Adsense in this niche.

Part of the reason this is the case, is that your target audience are interested in the information/reviews, and may not pay attention to the Ads. Further, experienced/savvy website visitors often ignore Adsense ads.

I hope this makes sense, and it may explain why you aren't getting clicks.

Sorry I threw my 2 cents in.

Now, to answer your original question... I think having the ads on the left hand side of the page may be an issue, i.e. they may be lost in the mix. If I were you, I would add adsense blocks between articles in the main content area. Try that on some of your pages and see if it helps your click-through rates.

Hope this helps.

Sherif

Thanks Shrif,

I really appreciate your 2 cents, and yes I am generating income from quite a few of the affiliate programs listed, although not very much income because I have only been up for about two months or a little more. I just thought that with the kind of traffic my site is getting and the impressions that I should be making something in my adsense account.

I appreciate your response and I will consider changing adsense layout. I will say that I am working very hard at getting my site visibility. I just had it optimized and resubmitted it to the search engines, and I'm hoping things will get even better for me money wise.

Thanks again,
Martha
