("CPM" is a standard measure for advertising, representing the cost per 1,000 pageviews/adviews -- so a site that earns an average of one-tenth of a cent per pageview would be earning $1 CPM. Note that Google uses the term "eCPM" for "effective CPM"). There are sites that earn more ($10 to $20 CPM) but they are usually in very narrow niches, and have moderate traffic. The "low end" of earnings tends to come for sites with diffuse audiences. For example, forum sites, social networking, and other sites whose visitors are not a narrow cohesive group with specific product-purchase intentions. The "high end" comes for sites with narrow focus, often product-review or comparison sites, or directory sites. Placement of the AdSense ad is another important factor: if you put the ad at the bottom of the page, where few visitors actually see it, then you shouldn't be surprised at the low click-through rate and the resulting low earnings. Placing the ad "above the fold" (where a visitor sees it without scrolling the page) will create better results.
