There you go...

How is your July 2012 coming along...

Yesterday's metrics down across the board which comes as no surprise when they obviously lost data for some of us...again, a record low CTR in a week that has seen my lowest-ever day and my best day in 8 months doesn't exactly inspire one with Google's competence, accuracy and truthfulness with some of my regular countries reporting zero clicks for the first time.

for wordpress users with Jetpack site statistics, have you noticed that you're getting referrals traffic from googleadservices even though you don't have adwords? I noticed that for the last few days.

I think this is contributing to the low revenue from adsense.

Anyone notice that their adsense ad blocks are extremely slow to appear? Google preaches on site speed, but then drops the anchor with their own poor ad performance. It's so bad on my sites (and others) that I wouldn't blame visitors for abandoning the session.

We noticed this bigtime during the stats outage, but it seems to have more or less righted itself today.

But second only to Facebook connections, all Google products are the worst offenders for site performance.

My performance chart for this month looks like steps going down. Just got my #2 click worth 6 cents! I can't break a dollar! 92% US traffic, CTR 0%? If there is no click dump before days end, I'm gonna scream!

Dear AdSense, WTF is going on with your reports?

There's a rank hypocrisy about Google and its preachy "page speed" waffle.

The servers here might as well be turned off. After seeing the mess that the bozos in Animal Farm made of the SERPs, I am beginning to wonder about the accuracy of Google Analytics too.

With the numbers over the past 2 days - i'd say there's mayhem in the adsense engineroom. CTR zero'd....

Ofcourse there's nobody on the bridge, officers still drunk and passed out from last nights record breaking revenue.

Another near record low yesterday. There's just no f***ing way these reports are anywhere close to reality anymore. Ridiculous.

Yesterday was the worst day in my history with AdSense. The numbers DO NOT add up. Something is seriously wrong. Only three clicks in 24 hours of steady traffic? 77 cents? Really!?!

They're sending all the clicks to eHow to pay for their super office building they just bought.

JCKline you're more fortunate than me. I only got $0.49 and never reached a dollar in a day this month.

Today so far is as bad as yesterday. It's almost...funny. What happened? Something is definitely broken.

July has never been a good month for me - too much else for people to do and not enough reason to shop online. Things tend to pick up in mid-August, though, with back-to-school concerns and then September brings the early holiday shoppers browsing for deals. Hold on and hang on - things will get better.

Doing much better than last year. CTR shockingly low but EPC shockingly high. I'll take it.

@netmeg, glad to hear you're still doing well. It seems like some of us have all but frozen accounts lately with little or no movement for click counts and earnings. Weird.

Terrible day yesterday (worst in several months) thanks to abominably low CTR and RPM. Today, though, RPM is 4x yesterday, clicks are almost double and my revenues are almost 3x - with almost half the reporting hours yet to come. Nice, but why? I may never know the latter but I'll gladly take the former.

Today is going no better for me. CTR is up, but CPC is at all time low.

I thought this was due to w3 total cache, theres definitely a problem with adsense lately

Closing a Sadsense week - suspect its from tweaking the adsense engine again after a sort of stable few weeks. CTR dropped back to 0.8% after hovering round 1 %

Anyhow - holiday time now in Europe with mega-migrations north-south, sort of a seasonal click-dip time.

Shaping up to be even lower than my lowest-ever Sunday of last week!

CTR and EPC collapse for me yesterday and so far today. At these levels AdSense is absolutely pointless therefore I'll see how the next few weekdays go before deciding what to do.

Is AdSense turning into a 4 1/2 day part-revenue generator?

Bizarre turn of events here. 10am and already 3x the earnings of all day yesterday. Hope it lasts.

Yesterday was my best day all week, yet way BELOW what USED TO BE AVERAGE. :(
