If you experience low CTR or low CPC of your AdSense that brings in very low income, or results an income drop, the AdSense Ads displayed on your blog or websites could have been targeted by those MFA (Made For AdSense) ads or low CPC ads.
The MFA sites are those sites or blogs that are fully loaded with AdSense Ads instead of contents. The owners of these MFA sites will advertise on Google Adwords to look for sites to place their lower-cost ads and in exchange they hope to gain much higher return ads on their sites.
For example, they get on AdWords and place an ad on your site with very low CPC, lets say less than $0.10. And when a user clicks on these ads on your site, the user will then be directed to the MFA sites which carry much higher CPC ads. And the MFA sites make much more money than you do.
And some more some of these MFA sites are having low CTR (Click Thru Rate) as they do not show ads that are so relevant to your site’s contents. Therefore users tend to click less on those ads on your site.
In order to gain much higher CTR and also CPC to maximize your AdSense income, you can make use of the AdSense competitive ad filter in your AdSense account. Login into your AdSense account, and on AdSense Setup menu, you’ll then find the Competitive Ad Filter. And there is a text box which allows you to enter up to 200 sites that you wanna filter out.
Of course, it’ll be hard for you to manually trace those low CPC or CTR or MFA ads. But, thanks to AdsBlackList.com, which it scans your site and generates a list of 200 sites to let you add into your competitive ad filter.
To generate the list, you must first sign up for an account with AdsBlackList.com. After that, sign into your account. But you may find it’s hard to get started as the menu of the AdsBlackList.com seems to be not-so understandable to most users. But I give you an easy steps here where to get your 200 sites.
Just click on the side menu, “My Account”, you’ll find “Add New Domain” on top, which is not so obviously shown. Click on “Add New Domain”, and key in your website or blog that you wanna have AdsBlackList.com to generate the 200 sites for you. You must provide the site’s URL, title and description. After submitting the site, you;ll then be redirected back to the account main page.
You can then proceed to “Generate Filter List” to generate the 200 sites. Drag and drop the available domains to the box “Keywords from selected domain”. Be sure to click the boxes MFA and low CPC, then click on “submit” to generate a list of 200 sites that provide low CPC/CTR ads on your website.
