Is anyone else seeing a delay? I'm literally seeing zero clicks, zero CPC, zero CTR etc.

@Oponone $50 a day, can only but wish. Three years ago I was occasionally reaching £30 a day but normally in the 20s. In the last two months I was lucky if I reach £5 for a day's earnings. This month has greatly improved and actually reached double digits a few days ago. Not quite sure why things are improving but it's made me happy

Super slow here today. But last week was good.

@Uponone I suppose if you are earning $100 before and it dropped to $50 then that is a big hit?

Today isn't looking too bad my CPC is around 18p at the moment. It's just gone 1 o'clock on the east coast of America so I've got 11 hours left of earning potential.

Thinking about it, I reduced the number of AdSense units I have got on a page. In fact, of the main articles I have got, there is only one that has got a responsive banner at the top of the article, the rest of them have got responsive ad links that seem to be quite well. Some of the units on the forum seem to get clicked on quite a lot as well.

I used to think like that years ago however nowadays there seems to be no rhyme nor reason when people are clicking except my early mornings when I invariably get half a dozen clicks from India for about 20p.

My website has been running since 2006 so I pretty much know where most of my visitors come from. Even though I'm UK-based there are not that many people from the UK who use my website, not compared to America anyway. And when I look at where my earnings come from, most of it is USA based. I think it's just the size of the country that makes the difference, there are a lot more people who are involved in my particular niche

just enabled ad balancer at 70% after a while. First attempt did not work.

And there should be a separate ad balancer for each site.

Indeed, and it's also highly possible that Americans are using the internet much more than Europeans too.

Precisely, the USA is 6X UK population, my US traffic used to be 6X the UK's, now it is the same, localisation and a "foreign business penalty" has chopped my US PVs back to UK PVs but what is even worse than that is that US earnings have dropped to 29.2% of the UK's with its RPM at 23.4%.

Honestly, if you end up the same then kiss your a$$ goodbye, you'll have nothing left to run!

We all use it about the same, here's a site not posted for a while:

In my case, I don't think it's really how much people use the Internet, it's how many people who have the hobby that relates to my particular website niche. When you consider that Texas alone is three times bigger than the UK it's only going to explain that there are bound to be many many more people in my niche.

Yeah articles too long is also hurting the visitor nobody wants to read long articles, also it can be a sign of you trying to keyword stuff, I think 1k tops is the best

Also have you used Adrecover? I never heard of that until now wouldn't that be illegal and go against google TOS I heard asking visitors to please turn off ad block plug ins can hurt you as well

@Broaster Yep. I've seen articles with one single para on the featured post.

Also have you used Adrecover?

I did, and it is good but now only the publishers with at least $10,000 per month will be approved :(

AdRecover follows BAS :)

@Maximum I agree, but when you consider the population of the USA is 325 million people compared to 65 million in the UK, that is a massive difference. You couldn't use the same comparison if you were talking about Australia because the population is a lot less family UK even though it's much much bigger.

Anyway, another pretty good day for me on Sunday, 49 clicks at 19p CPC. Today is looking like it's going to go in the same way.

Is it okay to run AdX ad in AdSense backup?

@MayankParmar - Those population stats you posted are so old they are useless, probably last millennium!

The UK is well into 65+ million these days and still rising at least .25 million per annum.

For few minutes all my figures were 0.

Adx is going strong this week, but Adsense is kaput.
Adsense has wild variations in payment.

@Mentat

My earning from AdSense has gone down to 50% compared to the earning of last year.

I am really worried and anxious.

Can you please give us details about how to remove AdSense from a site and implement AdX?

For me, the first 11 days of March seemed like a recovery was happening. However, I'm now back to about a 40% drop in regular earnings.

Also, a traffic loss of about 30%. Not good. I still rank on the first page for my main traffic source keyword, so not sure what's happening.
I need to take a closer look.

@Paul Just remove ad codes from the site. For Adx; Join Ezoic or AdPushup or Cybermediaservices or PubGalaxy (a premium ad network). A simple google search 'AdX ad partners' should help you as well.

Another 10% jump. AdSense is up by 30% in last 7 days :)

Though everything is still red as AdSense is still not back to its glory, and the traffic is still down :(
