Earnings were so terrible I switched back to Google - but I think it was due to horribly irrelevent ads - I mean absolutely, positively irrelevent. A company the size of Yahoo shouldn't be screwing up this bad, especially this far into beta.

My ads aren't too bad except for some ads showing where I don't live. I am not going to travel across the country for a new car no matter how good the deal. I wish I knew if I am just getting back click throughs today or if the CPC is down. Just have to wait until tomorrow.

Everything's OK except I wish they'd stop hacking 25% off. Shouldn't that be done with each click? Not the end of the day.

"OOH MY BEST DAY!"

*wakes up next day*

"WTF?"

I didn't see any earnings get hacked off yesterday (and I watched it like a hawk)

And today I've made the normal amount for february (which is alot less than january.. just like january is less than dec..etc). It just appears each month they continue to lower their payouts more and more.

Yup i think yahoo did not deduct earnings for yesterday but i think they took out earnings the day before yesterday, which is 22. Yesterday was OK. :)

My YPN earnings are down a fair amount today. I think they lopped off some of my earnings from yesterday, too. I'll have to start watching more closely, and keeping my own records.

My earnings have been down the last three days but overall for February it looks to be slightly lower than January. But January was higher than December.

One of the problems with Yahoo is that earnings are not consistent at all. Ad relevancy changes from day to day and payout per click varies all over the map. And it's different from site to site. My site has gone from record lows to record highs, back to record lows, all in one month, with no changes to the site. Ads vary from slightly relevant to extremely irrelevant from day to day. Very unpredictable.

You are from the Phillipines you can't even be in YPN, and not really sure what you are talking about anyway.

Yeah, I don't understand all these drop claims. Its some simple logic that needs to be understood about earnings. My earnings are going better than normal.

I agree. They screwed those ads completely. My CTR fell to 0.1% which is unbeliavable. In comparison, Google has 3-4%. Go figure!
