    My January earnings (paid in February) were much lower than normal, however February earnings were back on track. March earnings are going to set a new record for me if my month to date is any indication on how March will finish.

    Mine has fluctuated for the longest time, but really hasn't seen a drop on a consistent basis, but the CPC is a little lower today than yesterday..

    The site averages about $30-$50 a day, but some days it hits $100 and other days it hits only $15...

    Who knows!

    Haven't notice anything, no changes in PPC or even CTR. Probably depends on your niche.

    The possible cause for the decrease in adsense earning is less visitors, webpage is older and not updated with latest information, its search engine ranking may have dropped etc.

    Even I'm experiencing these...According to me as we are on Q4 already and this financial year will end on 31st March, 2013, the advertisers are quite reluctant to pay more for their ad slots...that's why we are seeing this drop.....
