Is AdSense Dead?

My CTR is about 4.07

anyone tried Adbrite? i just started using them today, i wonder how that will go.

 

My CTR is like 5%. My ecpm is 50 cents down from 2.00$!

 

My page impression 316, 10 clicks, earning $4.20

 

No....It's just that things are getting harder. If it doesn't work, Adsense is not the ONLY option.

 

yesterday I got $2.43 from 3 clicks

 

It took a slight dip - but, compared to everything else MONEY, it's doing quite well.

 

Spoken like a person who has never made enough money with adsense or got banned by google. Lol nice!

 

Adsense is sooooooooo dead for me, I'm having 3 times more clicks and half the money. :/

 

I noted a stack of impressions with no clicks on one of my blogs this week, impressions were up at least 100%, unique visitors were unchanged, hardly any clicks weird... maybe someone liked it so much, they just visited all the posts about three times?? The impressions are still showing every day, but the unique visitors are still about the same - just wish they'd click a bit more...

 

Earnings have not dropped across the board. Any drops, though, may help the program in the long run...one thing this will do is weed out the plethora of "in it only for the money" publishers which will bring the publisher-advertiser balance back inline. When the balance turns such that the publishers are publishers creating real sites with real content and not just trying to game the system, advertisers will gain faith in the program.

 

Definately slow but still alive. Affiliate marketers aren't spending as much with adwords, economy is killing things.

 

OMG, you mean my nice Adsense check this month is fake?? Adsense is not dead, but certain advertisers are cutting back on budgets. If your site is in a niche that is recession-proof, you won't have problems.

 

no it's not. all we have to do as publishers is to work hard and aim more and more traffic to our site

 

depends on niche...

i have found some well paying keyords and traffic recently...

 

It's not dead, but there's some kind of credit crunch and similar problems... so this is why companies dont pay that much for online ads and this is why your ad price dropped...

 

I think that it has gone down. And for me, it was pretty low to start. In January, I would average about 20-25 clicks for $5. So far this month, I'm getting almost double the CTR with about a 25% increase in traffic and only netting $5 off of nearly 40-45 clicks. So yeah, if you ask me, Adsense is being stingy

 

@ jacquesgroen - I guess you need to see my website..we use adsence on most of our result pages have 6K impression a day and CTR is 7-10% but still we get Peanuts from google..thats why google sucks! (atleast for me)

 

actually not, but better looking for ppc alternative

 

Adsense can't be dead maybe slowdown, adsense is the best alternative to effective advertising and of course very cheap

 

Surely the CPC rates are lower than before but one can expect that in these conditions right?
