I still get the same amount of traffic and clicks but I noticed my revenue or earnings are way lower. A month ago if I had 100 clicks I would usually make $50-75 dollars Now if I get 100 clicks I only make $18 to 20 dollars Just two days ago I had over 450 clicks and only made 65 dollars, but before if I had around 450 clicks I would earn around 125-175 dollars. What's going on? This seems very weird is this happening to anyone else?
no everything fine with me...you should contact google for your concerns, because a change in revenue earnings is really subjective IMO...^^
adsense earnings can be like that, because people click different kinda ads always, not the same. don't worry !!
the earnings keep on fluctuating per click this is normal don't worry dude it dpends on your niche as well, if advertisers pay less for some niche you will earn less as well
I also noticed a drop in earnings, but I won't accuse anything or anyone. I know if I increase my traffic my earnings can go up and up, so it's just up to me.
Yes I have had the same exact problem as you, and it started January 2nd and still going on today. The same amount of clicks is earning me a lot less, but this is also happening on CPMStar, another ad company I use. Its terrible because December was a record month for me for both Adsense and CPMStar revenue, and November was great too, but so far January sucks. I hope its because people are on vacation this week. My traffic has went down a little since the new year, but just a little so I am surprised at the huge revenue drop. Please let us know when your revenue turns around.
Yes. I have exactly the same problem. Ecpm plummeted by double digits. Lost more than $100/day since January. I was wondering what is going on myself. Like you, December was my record earning month. Was December earnings a Christmas gift from big G? Hope things get back to normal soon. Otherwise have to get back to work again.
I dont think so because my other ad company also had a record month in December, and they are not affiliated with Google. But the drop I am currently experiencing is worse than it has been in probably over a year. If this does not get fixed by next week, we are in trouble.
Yes, earnings slightly better than yesterday. But not much. My earnings literally doubled for a few days after christmas. Now its pretty sad
This is seriously a big drop and my main income comes from adsense it was convenient because I also go to college, now I am getting paid 8 dollars to 15 dollars a day, it's not enough to survive and pay bills. I am going to have to get a fulltime job now, this is really scary now, and it sucks, but it shows Adsense is not a sure thing unless you are a huge blog like huffington post or some other big website that makes over 100 grand a day in premium adsense. So, I asked around and some people are saying the reason why the revenue was higher before January was because a lot of advertisers were buying ad words for their business around September through December for holidays and Christmas. So they said the cost per click will be lower now because Christmas and holidays gift shopping is over. It kinda make sense.
So today I got 10,000 visitors with 935 clicks and only made $103. Last time I got 500 clicks and made 200 dollars. I guess they are just putting low paying ads on my site now.
First thing I would do is check with spyfu.com on my keywords to check the cost per click and the number of advertisers. They provide some history so you might find it is a seasonal thing.
I have the same problem ,may be adviser did not publish ad on holiday. I had 30 click i'll earn 10$,but now only 3$
