    Dear all,

    Just wondering if anyone has experienced CTR dropped almost 50% (and daily income also drops by around 40%++) for the month of September this year (Without changing any layout/design or ad placement)?

    A friend of mine hit by low CTR in Sept on his site :) It seems like less-relevant ads appearing? Is that because of some advertisers cutting budgets causing less ads appearing ???

    I experienced extremely low CTR during the month of August. Dropped by about 50% too. There's been a glut of poor ads appearing on my sites for the last few months probably reason why CTR has dropped so drastically. The only way to really balance the shortfall is to create a few more quality sites.

    I converted my payout currency from "$" dollars to "£" GB pounds (my local currency) at the end of June / beginning of July and have noticed quite a dramatic drop in earnings since the changeover.

    Did either of you change your payout currency just before you noticed a drop?
