I use adsense and payments going way down

Discussion in 'AdSense' started by iLinkMarket.com, Sep 30, 2008.

    I used to make about $400 a month using adsense - now it has dropped to $125-$150 per month for the past year. My PPC amount has gone way down also. The sites are still the same and topics the same. My traffic has actually gone up. I run ads on a lot of article and every page (over 6000 pages).

    Has this happened to anyone over the past year?

    PPC is gone down for my sites too. Not sure whats the reason. I guess we will have to work on getting more traffic to increase our earnings.

    I think that internet surfers not longer attract to those PPC advertisements, Adsense must reinvest themselves in order to getting back the glory they used to have.

    Maybe it's like some bussiness that work to meet on there quarters. With the economy the way it is they also maybe taking a hit and trying to make that quarter which will probaly end's today. Thats why in the past month alot of adsense sites are are down in there making money.

    I am still getting the traffic, the clicks, and the same CTR it seems.. But the PPC that I get has dropped HUGE! This is why I am so confused. The keywords are still huge:

    Foreclosure
    mortgage
    credit
    credit repair
    home loans

    These are all huge PPC keywords with high bids usually.. but I am getting like $0.10 for a click when I used to get $1.00+ on these keywords ?

    I wish I could just sell monthly ads but thats too much to manage.
