Noticed a significant drop in eCPM (about 50%) in July-2010 ? ...Any one else??

    Hello friends, I am facing a strange problem these days.
    For past over two years, I have been successfully running some blogs based on different 'Health' niches and making good $$$$ with Adsense.

    Since last week of June, my eCPM of all the blogs started dropping gradually and until today is 10-July, it has come to about 50% DOWN in comparison to it's all time history. While the traffic (bit increasing) and CTR are SAME.

    All the blogs are not related to each other anyhow (not even linked) and niches are TOTALLY DIFFERENT and nothing to do with each other.

    What may be the reason? I am clueless. Is there anybody else on DP, who noticed such drop in eCPM recently?


    I need help and advice from senior and experienced DP members.
    ...thanks in advance.

    It is not only you. I am facing same problem. Daily I use to make around 50 to 70 dollars now I can barely get 30. Something has happen with google ecpm system or they have tweaked it. I hope they fix it soon.

    I have had this problem since March beginning and I am yet to recover.
    My cpc has reduced 30 percent since February.
    My traffic has been up but I am not earning as much.

    The first week of August was my highest paying week since I have implemented Adsense on all of my sites... Not sure what you guys are facing, but I am doing quite well :)
