    Buddy! You can't display all that data together, its against the TOS!

    Remember, you only earn 90% of the time from clicks on an ad unit, CPC ususally outbid the CPM ads. The eCPM is your estimated earnings per 1,000 impressions. It's not under heard of what happened to you, I would wait for the end of the day to see if you generate any earnings.

    There. :D

    I'm not so worried about lack of clicks. It's the lack of value.

    I'll wait. Just impatient or paranoid I guess.

    Yesterday was terrible for me too. Over 3,000 impressions and not a single click.

    Still nothing.

    This is very disconcerting.

    Smart pricing? Some sort of penalty?

    I added url channels today. Could that break something?

    url channels won't change anything, but fwiw, i'm also seeing really low ecpm today... i'm hoping that it's just a reporting problem.

    (A lil bit off topic)

    205,000 impressions in a day thats really great. But I think you have a really great potential to increase your earnings. The CTR is really low, and that might be due to the nature of your website but I think you could be having 2 to 5 times higher CTR. Have you been doing any testing and experimenting on adsense placement and colours?

    For example moving the 480 adsense banner right below or above "Next Random Picture" button?

    Looks like your site is worth 38k, with 56k backlinks
    Any types on promoting your site?
