from long time i have seen CPR went down so i was trying to improve my Click rate.. so i did better ad placement and even got more click but at same time CPR went down.. it's so stupid.. i work so hard and improve one side then other side went down.. ahh just hate it...
Hang in there. Your EPC could go back up. It happens.... Or another advice: Do multiple sites and then some will pay high and some low so it balances out.
This is a slow time for some people....the holidays are almost over though...maybe try changing the topic on one of your sites if its not to much trouble...the whole goal is to really draw people to your website, and have them stick around for a while...not just to open it up, and immediately close it. At least for me it is anyway.
i'm thinking because january is "catch up" month for alot of people at there jobs, so they are not online clicking ads.
According to financial experts, February is the worst month for businesses as December credit card bills catch up with consumers. I hope they don't boot ppl for lack of good conversion.
However, I would assume that November would be worst for advertising, as companies are deciding whether or not to continue in the next year...it should pick up...it did for me last year.
Quite the contrary, at least for my industries (entertainment, gaming, tech). Companies spend money like it's 1999 all over again, during November, in an effort to boost sales right before the holiday rush. January and February are horrendous, however. Not only are the consumers out of money, but so are the marketing departments.
