How is ad serving, have you been hit with lots of irrelevant ads?

Ads seem fine from the UK however my main directory site's CTR is 33% of its usual daily average and after more than 6 hours of a Google day has earned 5% of its normal daily average!

Interestingly precisely the same happened on my main B&M site last Wednesday, a disastrous day for me.

When G gets a glitch they really make me suffer, I hope they are too!

Same here. Same page impressions. CTR 33%. Started as of yesterday. Blocked all google certified ad networks and will see.

I've been seeing similar things flipping through some of my top earning sites recently. One will have a pathetic day with incredibly low CTR for no apparent reason. The next day it'll be fine even though the ads seem to be the same as the previous day, and the whole thing will be repeated on a different site.

Something is clearly wrong somewhere...

I'm good and normal today (other days I wouldn't have said the same thing).

Who knows what they are up to. I add money up at the end of the week which still seems to be a good indicator, but my day to day has enormous variance these days. It never used to be like this.

It feels like something is rotten in "_______" (fill in the blank with whatever or wherever). This has been going on for two days in a row now and I'm not pleased. Traffic is normal, if not elevated.

My last two days have been great. Like old times :)

Well, it's happened again. The site that did incredibly poorly yesterday has suddenly improved and is doing normally today, and a site that was strong yesterday is now in the doldrums with traffic as usual but almost no clicks.

Traffic is fine, ads look the same as were displayed yesterday.

Well, it's happened again.

Me too, it's seesawing from one site to another with variations like I've never seen before. The difference in daily earnings on my main directory site this month is more than 100% and on my main B&M site over 600%.

If I look back just a few months ago nothing was ever more than 50%.

And the stats are stuck as well, what's new?

One of my pages is getting a Flash ad even though the unit is set to text only. Of course the ad is nothing anybody with a brain would bother clicking on. Anybody else seeing such problems?

Today is truly diabolical, after 12 hours of a Google day my Google stats look nothing like my logs. Either they are way behind or something is seriously amiss.

Maybe it's getting stuck from time to time today. My stats froze for many hours before I got some minor dumps. I'm still 30% below normal for this time of the day.

Then again, this month I had several bad starts that never recovered in the end, so I'm not optimistic of a good finish today.

Yes, Page impression is working fine but no click from last 6 hours, I think adsense click is again stuck...hoping that click will update some time later today?

I'm seeing this also, virtually no clicks in about 7 hours now.

Phew...not a "normal" Friday however overnight G dragged its a$$ into gear and managed to "find" the clicks that were obviously stuck in the pipeline somewhere.

For me this extremely slow clicks reporting has been going on for quite sometime now, the last couple of months at least, I wonder why?

A couple of days ago I went to bed expecting a total disaster when logging-in the following morning only to find a 300% click dump.

Am I the only one experiencing this or is anyone else reading these posts thinking "Yeah, me too man, glad you've confirmed what's happening"?

If this IS their new reporting procedure I wish they would confirm it since it does seem to be a bit haphazard to say the very least.

'For me this extremely slow clicks reporting has been going on for quite sometime now, the last couple of months at least, I wonder why?'

I am an Adwords advertiser and an Adsense user. The interface for Adwords is quick, the model of server efficiency, but the Adsense interface has slooooowed down over the years. I think the Adsense servers are purposely slowed down deter us publishers from checking our stats every 10 minutes to reduce anyone with arbitrage on their minds and to save Google server requests from publishers.
