Uh oh. AdSense gave me too much money yesterday. What should I do? Cash out? Flee the country?

Pathetic performance continues. All time low for the past several months and it is universal.
@rustybrick could you please ping Adsense to see what is going on?

A lot of blanks today and for my direct Adsense ads it's horrible with not collapsing. CTR about 30 percent higher than the beginning of the month but CPC almost 40 percent down... pathetic.

We already discussed about this, Google/Alphabet would show good earnings but most publishers don't share those results.

As for the ads.txt warning, I noticed a "Fix Now" option became available on the warning bar today.

After clicking it, I removed my 4 old domains which were previously authorized, and the warning message instantly went away. Good riddance!

Nothing to complain... I am at my best month ever, and before this month, june was my best month ever. (my sites are in the travel niche)

OT: Anybody using media.net?

I logged in this morning, about 15 minutes ago and my numbers were all zeroes. Scary. I tried to navigate around the media.net console, and kept getting errors. Now, when I try to log in, I get a 500 Server Error.

Can anyone confirm my experience?

UPDATE: Can now log in, but still showing 00000 for July 26. Looks like an internal issue to me.

Not much worse than Adsense these days ;-)

Yesterday I optimised several things at my website to decrease loading time. Most problems and most time to load is from sources of Google like Adsense at the first place. Latency, blanks and a lot of the same ads showing up... it's like we work with a network that's just started and showing how amateurish they are.

Yesterday was obviously something wrong with Adsense. Today CTR 50 percent more and CPC 30 percent more.

@matador86 what is the reason of those best months ever? More traffic or better rpms?

The weekends have been very rough in July. Monday looks better.

@dollarsound, yea a bit more traffic and better CTR. RPM is about the same as last year... (RPM is +/- 12�)

Earned exactly same number on Monday and Tuesday, $0.12 more on Tuesday :)

Lol at this moment I've earned exactly the same amount as yesterday... coincidence? With more than 80K pageviews a day it's a lot of coincidence.

What solution would you guys choose to collapse empty ads?

[support.google.com...]

I prefer the first solution:

If ad slots will get filled most of the time:
Add googletag.pubads().collapseEmptyDivs(); to the <head> portion of your page to collapse a particular div only when an ad doesn't serve to its ad slot. If a slot isn't filled, the div collapses, possibly moving the page content up with it and reflowing the page.

If ad slots will stay empty most of the time:
Add googletag.pubads().collapseEmptyDivs(true); to the <head> portion of your page to collapse all divs on the page before the browser fetches any ads. When an ad request happens for a slot, if the particular slot is filled, the div expands, possibly pushing down the page content and reflowing the page.

If ad slots will always stay empty on a page:
Don't specify the collapseEmptyDivs() method at all. The divs will never collapse ,so the page content will never be pushed down or pulled up; however, this may leave a blank space on the page if an ad doesn't serve to a particular slot.

I thought with the deprecation of choosing either a back-up ad, blank space, or collapse ad space, Adsense now collapses the space by default if no ad is served? Confirmation needed.

@Runfun Pages with content that jumps up and down are a terrible user experience IMO. I hate visiting pages doing that. And for this very reason I tend to do things to keep my ad slots at the same height regardless of what AdSense fills them with. For example keeping a div at 100+ pixels height, regardless of whether it is filled with a 50, 60, 90 or 100 pixels height advertisement.

I prefer to fill empty ad spaces with own content. Could be suggestions for content in other parts of your site, a daily poll or whatever. This probably requires lot of custom programming (at least it does for me), but I think it is the best solution.
