I have three domains in my account that are typos of a same one.
They are all with the same cctld.
And they all have the same keywords.
Everything is the same, so one should expect that the EPC will be the same. But of course, it is not.
The domain with the highest traffic has 3-4 eurocents per click.
The other two domains receive correspondingly 5-6 and 7-8 cents per click.
This is for yesterday - the same keywords, the same day, the same cctld, typos of the same domain. Where the difference come from? Nobody knows. Or probably it's again a proof that the EPC is adapted by Sedo according to traffic and some other mysterious parameters.

btw The day before yesterday the one with 7-8 yestreday was receiving 23 cents per click. But you already know about this kind of problem.

Check the countries where the traffic comes from. I.e. some typos are typical for US audience, some for latino audience. So the pay for the non-US traffic will be lower, of course.

It's a cctld Denny.
So the traffic is mostly from one particular country.

Best to check - I've got a few .us traffic domains getting uniques from all over the world - more than what is coming from the US itself.

I cannot do a check for the exact stats in the moment cause again I have not access to the stats in Sedo.
I'll check again later but I'm pretty convinced that the traffic is from one specific country in it's majority.
The .us domains are another story cause there are many domains with .us extension used for international purposes.

my guess is that it is the old sedo game in which they start paying you less and less once your account receives many clicks on a keyword that is a good earner..you can see that for all domains..they call it "dynamic pricing"

Now when the stats are back, I've checked it again. The majority of traffic is as expected form the same country.
