Anyone Notice drop in Adsense Revenue this Summer?

    To be more specific this month. Adsense revenue appears to have dropped by about 25% on my website. Is is just me? or is it seasonal? Has anyone noticed this?

    I have seen some sites go down. Per click is lower.

    My proxy sites are dead as of now, haha. Some of my other sites have been doing okay, though.

    Social networking sites have decreased in volume for me so the revenue is down as well.

    I've been with adsense 4 summers and each time it's the same: big drop in earnings because big drop in traffic.
    But this year, in july I managed to perform an honest month thanks to a 250$ from an adsense sign up referal and those 10 first days of august are just like another month of spring, everything is starting fine.

    Previous summers it was really dry on my adsense and started to go up at the end of august.

    Drop in traffic, but I'm earning way more in July/August than ever before. My PPC has doubled.

    For me traffic is down a little but clicks are up. However, CPC is way down.

    I think it depends on your niche. If you target a younger audience and they are no longer at school, they are less likely to be surfing the net.

    Strange mess with different sites, but in general - constant growth, so I can't confirm this drop.
