I have always allowed 3rd party ad networks, however, my eCPM hasn't been good lately and I NEVER seem to get any 3rd party ad clicks, only PPI pennies.

Has anyone experimented with them blocked vs allowed and seen a positive change either way? I don't want to make a big change that could kill what is already dismal lately, so your opinions are greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

These I have just done, so the colors are the same this time. (To save any confusion.)

This is firefox

As you can see, each time firefox shows more adverts due to less space wasted... and no fecking arrows.

Look how garish that arrow part is. - where's the puke bucket?

@Lame_Wolf, Thanks for the screenshots...that's horrific.

I allowed them all again two days ago because earnings tanked, and already yesterdays earnings went up 20%. Hope it continues to climb.

Thankfully, Google saw sense and removed those ugly arrows.

I haven't included them, and yesterday (thursday) was the best day of the year for me, so I doubt that it was because you've allowed them is the reason for your increase.

I have everything turned off except AdSense itself. None of the others ever added up to more than a few cents aggregate, so why even let them display.

Friday ended better than Thursday, The week they were all blocked was the worst week all month, now things are up again.
