Unless there's a miracle today and tomorrow, September earnings will be at least 10% down from August. Here's to hoping October is better!

Still above average Saturday. Woohoo! Sunday is also looking good so far. Thanks, Goog!

I absolutely smashed my all time best ever day with yesterdays earnings. Of course traffic related, but it does show me what traffic levels I need in order to make this dream a reality. (never thought I'd say this) - Thanks, Goog!

Congrats, MrSavage! What surprises me about mine is the low PV/traffic but still making way above average earnings, plus too early in the holiday season. I'm just totally amazed! I'll take it! I'll take it! Thanks, Goog!

from last 30 days, i've gone down 20% in site visitors, yet 70% in adsense income

Exactly what I'm experiencing - though mine only started the increase on September 15.

Last 2 days have resulted in my best 2 days ever. Record day yesterday and I have smashed to bits my previous records. Clearly this is because of traffic increased to my site, but it's a reminder of what it really takes. When this bubble bursts I really wonder how I can go back to my previous paltry earnings. Regardless, I've been pounded almost to my last breath over the past year in terms of adsense revenue and I'm fully aware that I'm hanging on a single strand of thread with these amazing earning days. If this continues a bit longer I might be able to balance out all the previous record low months from the past year. (never thought I'd say this again) - Thanks Goog!

2013 has been bad, low numbers, some months had average lows and some disaster days but the outcome was not a "terribly low month" instead it kinda recovered. Anyway looking back 2013, hasn't been pretty.

September changed that trend, it's been the highest month of 2013 including the highest day of the year. Still, doesn't mean it's an amazing month, just the higher than the rest. I'm happy, can't complain, it comes in a nice time.

Last week was our best week of the year. At first I was thinking early holiday spending in the auction but now I'm thinking 3rd quarter marketing budget dump. Today is the last day of the quarter.

Another record month in "estimated earnings" although traffic is up over 20%, income is up just 3% from month prior... not a great sign, but let's hope the big G doesn't take 18% from my earnings again this month :X *sigh*

5:58 pm Eastern Time: Just saw some latency in ad serving coinciding with what looks to be a series of updates in both Analytics and Adsense. Wonder what G is up to today?

No good news here. Dead all day. :-(

Wow! Wow! Wow! Another record breaking day Monday. Looks like I'm going to keep breaking records in the coming months. Just amazing! Thanks, Goog!

I've noticed an up tick after a few months of lower earnings. Mostly due to higher CTR and CPC.

Word of warning to everyone here that is over the moon at the higher earnings it can just as easily revert tomorrow - get back to work.

edit: posted twice.

Hmm earnings today seems terrible - lower than week-end.
Low eCPM and it seems that Google has some problems.
My Analytics is not loading any graphs.

Had the same problem earlier and it turned out G was finalizing our monthly earnings. Finalized earnings are showing and everything is back to normal (whatever that is). I've seen these problems before during the finalization process. It has an effect on both Adsense and Analytics.

Well for the second month running, finalised earnings increased from the reported month total. Not by much but beats a decrease.

Here too. First time ever for my account.
