Are your Google AdSense ads earning low revenue due to low cost-per-click (CPC)? Perhaps you''ve worked to set up a good ad placement strategy to raise your click-through-rate (CTR) but each click isn't paying you very much? There's a great website to help you remove the low-paying ads from your site, creating more room for the ads that will pay you more for each click (HCPC). I'll show you how to use the tools to generate a list of 200 blacklisted URLs automatically tailored to your specific website.

Check out AdsBlackList.com . It is currently a free service (in Beta) which allows you to create a list of 200 blacklisted advertisers who are flagged as Low Cost Per Click (LCPC) or Made For Ads (MFA).

The website allows you to generate an automated list of 200 blacklisted URLs tailored for your specific website, check any advertiser's URL against their blacklisted database, and submit additional URLs that you think should be blacklisted

The site's navigation is hard to figure out, so here are a few tutorials to give you an example of how to use their services.

How to generate a blacklist for your website

First you'll need to register at AdsBlackList.com. Then click My Account in the Site Navigation menu. Click Add a New Domain and enter your website URL, its title, and the keywords most often used on your website and click Submit.

Now click Generate Filter List from the Site Navigation menu. Drag and drop your website into the text box on the right. The check both the MFA and LCPC checkboxes and click Submit. The list will be generated and added to the text box at the bottom. Click anywhere in the bottom textbox to highlight the entire list and copy it.

Now log into your Google AdSense account and click the AdSense Setup tab. Then click Competitive Ad Filter in the submenu. Paste the list into the large textbox and click the Save changes button. You're done!

How to check if an Ad on your website is a Low Cost Per Click (LCPC) Ad

I'll be using Firefox for this tutorial. Right-click on the Google AdSense ad that you want to check and click Properties. The link goes to Google's advertising service so you'll have to look through the URL to find the advertiser's link by clicking the text and dragging to the right to scroll over. The advertiser's link should be near the end of the URL. Select just the base URL of the advertiser's link. Right-click and click Copy.

  Now browse to AdsBlackList.com. Login and paste the copied URL into the Domain Checker on the left side uner the Site Navigation. Press enter. The advertiser's status will appear, telling you if it is blacklisted or not. If it is, you should add that link to the Competitive Ad Filter in your Google AdSense account.
