Wow! Horrible CTR today

Discussion in 'AdSense' started by qwestcommunications, Nov 19, 2006.

    I am just hoping that clicks haven't updated fully today because CTR today is absolutely horrible. On top of that, is anyone experiencing unusually low cpc today (yesterday as well).

    I am finding the same thing. Why is this? Weekends bring on low ctr?

    Next weekend is Thanksgiving. Actually Thursday is Thanksgiving day and then Friday is the biggest shopping day of the year so everyone will be in the stores that day.

    One thing Adsense really tought me was the amazing power of statistics. It quite amazes me every month. No matter how the ride goes , slow days , awesome days, normal days, somehow it eventually ends up to be pretty much what you expected considering the changes made to site and it's traffic .

    A CRT is the tupe used in monitors to display the image.

    The CRT is Click Through Rate, meaning the % of click you get for your pageviews.

    Watch out for the Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years holidays. These have all been low points for me in past years. In fact, the whole month of December sucks.

    To be honest, I think it will be a few days rather than weeks leading up to christmas that things will be slow. I think the week between christmas and new year, until people have gone back to their work on the 3rd or4th of January, things will be really bad.

    You should consider CTR on a monthly or weekly basis. Not daily.

    Usually, 24 to 48 hours can pass before your account settles with the exact figures.
