Well I'm doing ok the last couple of days- today I have a 100% ctr on my arb sites (not too exciting, only 5 pages and 5 clicks...)

I have been running a test site using google for search. I get a lot of traffic there and have a 30% CTR on it- but my earnings for it per click is something around 10 cents average. I figure at that rate I can't afford to pay more than 3 cents in 7search per ad item to make any profit. I was doing 6 cents per click like my arb sites and this of course wasn't working out.

My question is- do you get paid this small amount if they click on the searched results links, and then get paid more if they click on the adsense ads that also come up with the searches? I am hoping that is the case, since then there is at least the potential to make more than 10 cents if they click on an ad and not just the resulting links.

THanks!
 


interesting- well i am lowering my bids across the board to .03 for now until i figure this out.

still doing ok now- getting better payout witht that site than my arb sites just because it gets more volume. the adsense ads blend in really well too.
 
well about half of the traffic is organic- so it is free for me, I'm just worried about spening for it in 7search..
 
also- I guess since my CTR is over 30% that means they are clicking on the ads 30% of the time- not too bad. i had thought that only meant clicking on a searched result...

i wish it payed better though- def. not as high of a payout as adsense for content, but i guess if the volume is there at least it's ok
 
I wonder if the payout is based on the searched term? Today each click averaged 2 cents :( but if they were searching for something w/ a higher adsense payout like plasma televisions or something, I'd get like 20cents or whatever the payout for that term is...

of course
google pays you a percentage of whatever they're getting
finance clicks will pay more than toothpaste
