I think the last 2 weeks of August is better than this 1st week of September.. Hopefully 2nd week will be better traffic and clickthrough..Average earnings dropped from 25 to 15 per day..
Labor day weekend... Adsense is always going to be lower during holiday weekends. It should bounce back up.
Yes, it's because of the Labor Day weekend. But things are picking up today. I've already earned more today than I earned in the past 3 days combined.
School starting, end of summer vacations lots of things distracting folks right now. It should bounce back as people settle back in to their normal routines.
Well I have experienced totaly different thing, but probably due to more visitors. From my 0,5$ in last 2 weeks of august to 1.5$
I agree...I was hoping things would pick up today, but so far every day in Sept has sucked! C'mon fat ladies... start surfing and start clickin'!
Not being in the USA, I had no idea you guys had a long weekend ... thought I did something wrong when I had 25% of usual earnings on the one day !
The Labor Day weekend is the worst holiday weekend of the year for web site owners. It comes on the tail of summer vacation, which is not good in itself, AND it's a weekend, AND it's a holiday. The good news is that it gets much better from here on out - until Thanksgiving and Christmas, and New Years.
And to add to that, yesterday, majority of users on the internet were probably spending most of their time reading about Steve Irwins death.
End of August early September for at least the last 10 years ............have been the worst trading period for us on the net Expect good pick up between mid September to Xmas If you keep working away it will all come good
Thanks for the advice... Since I don live in the USA, and I know my country also having the school holidays on the 1st week of September, it will be down for all of us on the Net as written by britishguy. Will take note of that every year.. What do you guys think about the upcoming Nov-Dec holidays period? It's one good long holiday.. Will that affect Net business also? I'm afraid it might drop even further to really demoralize... But the good thing is, people are still working .. Though many will be taking vacation overseas...
Nonsense my AdSense quadruppled over the weekend!!! May be because my site is a shopping site, and people do shopping for the holiday...
Weekends and holidays are my best days. They seem to be the best for ebay, too. Had an increase of 20% in adsense this weekend, and commission from ebay was up 400%. BTW, during the work week, I get spikes at lunch time and after dinner.
Did that really affect your site traffic with holiday? Or you site are more focusing in certain region? For Asia, currently most of the countries was no holiday within this few day. You still should gain traffic other countries isn't it?
I saw some minor decline in the beginning of September, but now it seems like it is peeking up again. Maybe it is due to Labor day. Anyway it is too early to tell.
