Why are my earnings dropping?

For about 4 or 5 days, my overall earnings are dropping very very low.

I have checked on my stats, and there are fewer page impressions, I haven't done anything different from the usual stuff that I was doing until now, and still, why are my earnings dropping.

I am receiving around 30% then the usual daily.

Is this a holidays issue, or something like this? Will everything get back to normal after the 1st of January?

Can you please give some suggestions?

Many thanks
Dan

Everyone's at the shopping mall standing in long lines, kinda hard to surf from those long lines. After Christmas everyone will be so stuffed from Christmas dinner to do any surfing. Then it's New Years and everyone will be to hung over and/or drunk to surf, for some this may last for days.

In summary wait til next year.

Only the impressions are fewer, Rankings are the same, only less visitors. That's all.

CTR is the same, and ecpm,clicks, too.

Evrything looks back to normal, Traffic is normal, The only thing is that the clicks are cheaper.

Will this be improved in shortly?

Vreenom, congrats for having your traffic normal again. It make sense to me that your niche (supposing a product) is not for sale in winter or in the month of december, so advertisers pull their compaigns back for a while and you get lower payout rate due to reduction in advertisers competition.

Wish you good luck for getting your rate improved.:)
