: Are AdSense earnings capped based on the number of pages on your site? So I wasn't quite sure how to word the question, so feel free to edit... We have several sites that have been earning

So I wasn't quite sure how to word the question, so feel free to edit...

We have several sites that have been earning consistent AdSense revenue. In an attempt to gain more revenue, we placed a pass-through page between search result links and their pages (external).

While the revenue went up for those pass-through clicks (obviously), it seems that the % of clicks has gone down on all the other ads. CPC's went down a bit, while page views remained consistent.

We tested some clicks, and noticed that they were not registering.

So I'm curious to know if anyone else has experienced this.

Is there some ratio of how much you can make with AdSense vs the # of pages on your site?

AdSense revenue is not capped by the number of pages on your site. I have seen a number of reports of webmasters making layout changes that dramatically increase the amount of money that they make from AdSense.

I think that it is more likely that you are violating the AdSense policies. Clicks are not counted for this reason and your revenue has not gone up because of this. Specifically, here are two AdSense policies which you may be violating based on the description in your question:

Ads are not allowed to be placed on site search results or other dynamic content.

Ads are allowed on site search results, but not on other dynamic content. You can also use Google's own search engine for site search that has AdSense for search.


Ads on dynamic content

Publishers may not place ads on pages or sites where dynamic content (such as live chats, instant messaging, and/or auto-refreshing comments) is the primary focus.


Ads are not allowed to be placed on exit pages

You are violating this policy by publishing ads on an interstitial created when a user leaves the site.


Misleading Placement for Ads on Thank You, Exit, or Error pages

Publishers are not permitted to place ads on any non-content-based pages like thank you, error, or exit pages. These are pages that visitors see on a site before potentially leaving the domain, sometimes after performing a specific action on the site such as a purchase or download. Error pages can be 404 error pages informing the user that there is no content to be found on this page. Ads that are the main focus on these types of pages can confuse a visitor into thinking that the ads are actual content, so we ask that ads are not placed on such pages.
