Guys, take a look at this report sent in by one of my clients early one morning:

These are the top 3 earning countries early that day:

United States
80 Page views
197 Impressions
3 Clicks
$13.50 Estimated Earnings, hence CPC = $4.47

Nigeria
2,435 Page views
8,229 Impressions
63 Clicks
$2.61 Estimated earnings, hence CPC = $0.04

Kenya
12 Page views
44 Impressions
1 Click
$0.13 Estimated earnings, hence CPC = $0.13

From the above, you can see that the CPC on Nigeria originated clicks is sooo ridiculous.

What can webmasters say about this?

Olorun maje ka shashedanu! God don't let our efforts be in vanity! Amin.

Nigerian advertisers set Thier ppc to $0.01 thats why

90% of them do that.

It's why some bloggers don't like Nigerian traffic on Thier blogs....Our adverts no dey pay better money lol.

Maybe one can use the block ads feature to block them or rather opt of US traffic only?

am an advertiser and i wont pay shit for stupid traffic

whats 1000 clicks withoutva single call do,thats why most advertisers prefer search than display which is were adsense falls

Are you saying Nigerian traffic is stupid traffic? Not interest based?

Its a fact Nigeria CPC is low....been experiencing that for a while now and I just can't figure out why. Though CPC is not only affected by location. Keyword and other factors are also into play. You can checkout my page www.fabinfos.com and support a lad.

How do I do this?

What has buhari got to do with this.. smh

Nigeria CPC is low but not what you posted. ..It depends on your niche. I have gotten between $0.20-$0.99 from Nigeria as CPC.

Another factor is your audience device. Mobile users send you low CPC. Clicks from desktop have much higher CPC.

That Adsense is crazy

True talk...
Not even viewing...
We just scan through and move on, clicking upandan anyhow....

I'm guilty of this, I don't like reading online, if it's not a book I can flip the pages, forget it.
I'm too old school for that, and I don't want to spoil my eyes with those yeye rays.
I most times print any PDF I download, I have a personal printer for that. Even some threads on tutorial on nairaland, I'll copy and paste in my Ms word and print it out.
Online matter is just for interaction that's how I see it

I just enjoy flipping the sheets.

Morning bro

Nothing is working against Nigeria but Nigerians.

It's Nigerian advertisers that set extremely low cpc


I've for once had a cpc of about 0.16 or so from a single Nigerian, that's just only ocne for my many years if blogging. I've also had a cpc of less than 0.01 yes, less than that.

I don't know what to type

The value of the naira to the dollar plays a part. Also, many Nigerians do not yet appreciate the power of advertising on the internet. I personally hate having Nigerians and Kenyans on my site. But in my niche, they are a devil you can't do with out.

I once had 900 pounds from 300k views from UK and USA but could only get 127 pounds from over 1.3m views from Nigeria and Kenya. It will improve with time. I think I posted the screenshot here in my other account.

The situation In fact gives me the job that bloggers are going to continue to get richer in this country as the economy improves so will advertisers be willing to spend.
