- plenty of advertisers shown in AdSense Preview Tool
Is anyone else seeing very low earnings in july. Jul 7, 8 onwards is going down.
Yes. Any ideas why? I've been told I was smart priced....my traffic is doing well, tons of clicks. Clicks are worth near nothing....I'd be making a good sum a year ago....
Compared to last year july, less earnings, 15% less.
The problem is I have way more traffic and two more websites :( so at the end the difference is more than 15%
The second July week is complete different from the first.
For the whole July now again, little bit higher CTR than in June.
Earnings average is also little bit up compared to June.
Thank you AdSense, some of us appreciate you.
same imprission and click
:(:(
any one try a good company like or better then adsense ?
My traffic is down but AdSense is paying like crazy. Thank you AdSense, some of us appreciate you.
Starting back when they announced the different font sizes and up until last weekend, I had great earnings - almost as good as back in 2003 or 2004.
Then, since last Saturday's maintenance, my total earnings for the entire 6-day period has been less than what I earned normally in just one day.
I'm still getting the same trafic and seeing the same ads. Both the CTR and EPC are in the tank.
If it's a matter of AdSense paying like crazy, then it's almost like they do that sometimes then flip a switch and turn it off for a while.
It's almost enough to make a person start thinking of conspiracy theories.

Mines been up and down all week.
Same here.
One theory: Increasing the font size has increased clicks so much that daily budjets run over, and are cut back the next day.

Heh, me too. Hard not to take it personally, although of course, there's nothing personal about it.
I hope to have my own direct advertising setup finished by the end of August, which should render AdSense truly incremental income.

It's also hard not to think it's somehow related to the maintenance.

Seems every time i get my traffic up earnings tank
Perhaps it's the quality of that traffic causing your earnings to tank.
Wrong keywords, bad source, etc.
It's also hard not to think it's somehow related to the maintenance.
But what about the publishers who never seem to be negatively affected by maintenance?
My earnings are down compared to a year ago, but I think that is mostly due to my own actions, blocking image ads, etc.

I don't know. This is the first time it seems to have happened to me.
Maybe everybody has a first time - sooner or later.

So far today is equal to 1/2 an hours worth from years ago.
CTR down a fair bit, EPC is right through the floor.
