April starting really bad

Discussion in 'AdSense' started by halonen, Apr 8, 2009.

    April's earnings are currently down by some 20-30 percents compared to last month, with almost the same amount of traffic and number of clicks. Anyone experiencing the same?

    same situation here. The value of each click has gone down too.

    Me three. Half way through January and nearly all February was terrible - probably the worst months in recent history. March was very strong, and gave me hope that this Adsense thing has turned itself around. April on the other hand, started out bad, and my other networks are paying peanuts for this month as well.

    I'm guessing that March was strong because companies were closing out there 1st quarter advertising campaigns. This 2nd quarter will most likely be worse than the first; companies now know for certain the state of the economy and where it is headed.

    Same here. I have the same traffic as last month (record breaking) and this month even though i put in more work, i am making less money somehow. Everytime GGGle goofs around I make less one way or the other.

    Power sucks when someone else holds it.

    My earnings are doing very well... I was thinking just the opposite as I have had some very good clicks dollar wise as well as strong averages over the day.

    It's a down right shame of google. Its so funny everyone blames the advertiser"s that is pure crap. Maybe just a few dropped out of the race. I have noticed since I added adbrite there are lot of the same advertisers ads there as they was also on adsense and they have been paying more that when they on the adsense ads. Listen people its google taking more of the share.

    For me, the first, second and third April was bad - around 30% dropped. But somehow it suddenly going up 3 times in the forth of April and until today, the cpc is quite good. Adsense is really unpredictable...

    It is really shame that adsense continues to rip off publishers! There seems to be just no accountability... :mad:

    Whoever called it 'smart pricing'....I call it 'Dirty pricing'.
