Does anyone notice a drop in Adsense revenue in the last 4 days?

    I want to make sure I'm not the only one here who has noticed a slight drop in Adsense revenue over the last 4 days.

    It started on the 24th of December, so I'm going to assume this is because of the holidays and that after the first of January, things will go back to normal.

    Am I correct? Has anyone else noticed a slight drop in earnings?

    Traffic and earnings will probably suck until after the bowl games are over.

    I am a member of this club.

    Usually, the last week of the month, it seems eCPM rebounds. Not this time, I guess.

    Mine's been slowly coming back since right before Chrismas when it dropped 1/2. Entertainment sites get hit pretty hard.

    From my experience the last half of December is always the worst for traffic of any couple weeks of the year. All of December is always the slowest month. Early Jan should see a boost but not enough to make up for it, more like back to regular Nov.

    Mine have actually increased a bit in the past few days. December has been a slow month though they aren't up to what they were in Oct or Nov.

    Didn't see it. In fact, my traffic and revenue INCREASED the two days after Christmas by about 100% over normal -- actually setting a all-time high for me. It was down about 25% on Christmas day and the day before.

    I think it all depends on the topic of the web site and the demographics of the visitors. My point is that I don't think any increase or decrease is the result of anything that Google has done. It's just the ebb and flow of the mysterious web.
