Google AdSense pays $0.05 to $0.50 per click in South Africa. The amount of money paid per click (CPC) depends on factors such as niche, type of traffic and geographical location of the traffic. But here we assume that the 100% traffic is from South Africa.
The costs per click is high when traffic is from organic searches like Ask, Google, Yahoo and Bing. With such traffic, the CPC can go as high as $0.50.If traffic is from social media, the CPC will be as low as $0.05.Social media traffic is not of the same quality as organic traffic.
