Here's some interesting facts (???) from what I have seen when my site was droppped from the index in Google. Now, some of you think this is just rediculous and is not true but here is what I have seen from my stats using AsRep!! (Not: I am NOT affiliated with them at all!!!!!) From the day my site was gone I see a drop in visitors=PageViews BUT the earnings have gone up!! The CTR has gone up and the payment is better even though I have less visitors! My question is now, do I REALLY want visitors from Google? Are visitors from Google "blind" to the Ads or have they already clicked on the Google search page?
That's NONSENSE! yes, you want visitors from google. I think everyone would agree people coming from search engines are most likely to click on ads. Return vistors are much, much,much less likely to click on ads hence the pathetic clickthrough rates of forums.
I knew someone would say it is nonsense but theses are facts from my AdSense tracking application where I can see where they came from and if they clicked or not!! Most of my visitors are NOT return visitors but comes from other search engines like MSN and Yahoo and smaller ones. Not that I mind having visitors from Google, but if they don't "bring anything to the table" ?
