Is YPN down to sane CPC yet?

    Well, at least it looks like on my sites it has been down to fractions of a dollar instead of multiple dollars it used to be before. Is that just my sites or you guys are also seeing (significant) decrease in YPN CPC?

    I haven't noticed a big difference in sports related payouts on YPN.

    If you will check some of my past posts, you will see I have experienced the same thing with YPN. Early Nov or so my clicks averaged $3.00 each, they have been averaging for over a month now 40 cents per click, some lower, slowly still dropping. Almost as bad as Adsense and their smart pricing......

    No difference here for the most part.

    I think it depends on a bunch of things like how much times that person has clicked the ad (I'm guessing it goes down after a bit), and maybe the type of advertisement (some ads give you more than others).

    I have seen a wide array of things happening with YPN. On some of my sites it has been the same, some it has dropped a good bit, and some it is increasing. I am still very happy with YPN.

    What category are you using, if you don't mind me asking.

    To answer the original question, I've seen random fluctuation, but nothing like the steady decrease that has been described by others. My highest click that was recorded was about $5 and that was with the Computer Software category (even though my site is completely unrelated.)

    Is your site's topic related to real estate?
