I have installed a few AdSense ads on a few of my web pages that have some interesting pictures on them. Usually I earn no more than a few dollars a day, if that much even. Two weeks ago my site made it to the top listing of Digg, Reddit, et al., and I received literally hundreds of thousands of impressions, and received a lot of clicks. Since then the earnings since last payment has shot up over $500. Today I check it, and the same 'earnings since last payment' dropped from $500 to less than $400. What happened to this $120 and why was it taken away from me? I have no reason to suspect any funky business going on. Thanks!
hahahah this is called smart pricing war , last month my earning was $ 76 and now this month my earning is only $12 and i am weeping that will i gonna get check this month or not . Most of webmaster facing this problem and may be this is happening because of too much competition .
I know they can do whatever they want, but is it really right for Google to take away money they say you've earned? I can understand they not pay out as much the next time, but to see that amount drop from $500 to $380 one day later hurts!
May be google have issued a payment, if you have the option enabled to get monthly payments? That $120, you earned it in the past month ?
I wish, but no payment was issued between yesterday and today. The money simply disappeared I wonder is Google suspects any fraud? I would *hate* to even have to think this!
too bad for you..this is what called smart pricing..i too have encounter this prob several times..all the hard earned money suddenly disappear.
