I made 3000 unique visitors yesterday and got only 32 cents on adsense



@emp - great suggestions there, real nice of you to actually put the effort into it. When I used to do SEO > PPC arbi the adplacement was one of the most important things for me to bring in profits. I studied with a lot of different colors, places, fonts, everything.
 
gay! hhh $1 for 3k page views, well EMP gave you some great tips I hop you will follow them
 
Page impressions are not uniques.

You have at least 3 ad units on your page, each unit registers 1 impression per page load.

3000/3 = 1000 page views.

And for example if each visitor viewed 10 pages, it's 1000/10 = 100 unique visitors.

(change values depending on ad units and page viewed per visitor)

Looks like you have more than 3 ads as you are using the link units aswell.

I see where you are coming from but you are not 100% correct. Yes, if each visitor scrolled all the way down the page then you would be correct, but if a visitor stays above the fold and there is 1 ad above the fold, it will count as one impression.

If he is hitting over 3,000 on ad impressions he is likely far past 1,000 visitors. Atleast 2,000 and probably upper 2,000's to low 3,000's. How many times do you scroll more than 1 ENTIRE page top to bottom on any website.
 
LOL @1yerrot.

Dude, look up your internet technologies... ad impressions are not counted by scrolling down...

OMG...

I have heard that the more adsense blocks you have on your page the less google pays. It is often best to have just one blog on the page, the premium located is top left.

Has anyone done extensive testing of this theory?

I just did some AdSense restructuring on one of my sites to get rid of worst performing footer unit. Instead I doubled down on medium rectangles that go after article.

Surprisingly, total page eCPM / CTR stayed essentially flat based on 2 weeks of data, and the eCPMs / CTR of the highest performing units dropped.

Any explanations / comments / suggestions ?
