    Has something changed? Because yesterday was the best day of the month for me and today is looking almost as good...anyone else see a boom all of a sudden?

    i dont know... whats your niche? hahahaha. j/k. targetting has been bumping around. most people seem to be on the low end of the stick, some ppl are avg and very few are benefiting. in your case, it may also be that publishers in your niche(s) have dropped out, increasing ad inventory in your sector. when you say "boom", are you referring to your rpc, ctr or both? your an intelligent guy, i've gathered... these 2 variables can tell you everything you want to know.

    I too have noticed a change. I thought it was due to my altering some code/layouts. Guess not!

    well, I at first thought it was due to some SEO that I had done...but I don't understand how that has gotten me more relevant ads...

    My ctr has gone up and the RPC seems to be up as well.
    Yesterday was a good day. Today is better thus far.

    I have had more traffic but that shouldnt matter as typically if I had 10k uniques or 2000 the ctr stays pretty close to the same.

    I also saw a very nice jump up yesterday, one of the best days of the month for me also. Clearly they control this thing then........ now if they would just fix it so we had them good days everyday :) Then so many wouldn't have to make the nasty move back to AdSense........

    Some days do seem to be better than others....
    I too think YPN controls the payout regarding RPC....

    of course they control the % share of rpc. but i doubt they are adjusting this everyday. and most certainly i doubt they are choosing which publishers go up and which go down. thats too much work. if they make a change, its likely global for all publishers. more likely is that advertisers are changing bids, competition is dropping out, new advertisers are getting in the mix or a change in targetting on your pages/sites.
