    i guess readers has already have an idea about adsense, that's why the percentage of clicking ads is extremely low :D

    Some variations in Adsense. You just need to drive more traffic

    what are you talking about? i have the same channels running since 1 year with no changes to the ad placements, because i optimized them already, the click rate and click amount remained the same, but eCPM and therefore earnings went down by 50% .. either adsense changed something or it's the silly season

    I'm an echo of you other guys: I've been steadily building for two + years, suffering the typical/cyclical ups and downs - but this happening is odd.

    I had a great July - then on August 1, something threw a swith and overnight my revenue was down. My traffic is on track but CTR is down by 20-25% and eCPM is down by roughly the same. I suppose this could be attributed to lower money being spent on summer ads, but would that explain the August 1 overnight change? Someone on a another forum attributed this to (at least as a possibility) to Google's instituting its "frequency capping" feature.
