Does your Adsense units perform evenly through the day?

    Mine certainly don't! Recently I've been paying close attention to my account, doing A/B tests and logging in several times through the day. Guess what:

    I noticed that as much as 75% of all daily clicks happen after hours (between 0:00 and 6:00 AM GMT), which strikes me as strange. I'd expect more clicks during nighttime, but not with such a huge disproportion.




    Has anyone made similar observations? Or read any insightful studies on this matter? Just curious.

    it depends on your traffic, i.e. source of your traffic.
    your 0:00 - 6:00am, for some is daytime or evening.

    My clicks are distributed thru the day but I have noticed that ePC is wayyyy higher from 00:00 to about 10:00am PST.. Then it goes downhill from there..

    This might due to the traffic country. the time display is based on your country, but your visitor who click on the ads might be from other timezone

    The bulk of my visitors are coming in from America (65%), so it actually makes sense there's more clicks late in the afternoon to sleeping time on weekdays. During the day people are working, probably behind a proxy or ad blocker, so they probably can't go around researching and clicking ads, even if they wanted to.
