Number of Clicks Decreased about 25%

Hi there,

I have noticed that the number of the Clicks have been decreased for about 20 to 25 % for one of my sites in the last one week.

The traffic is constant.

Can anyone tell me please how to fix this problem.

I am very sorry to hear of the decrease.

Do you mean AdSense clicks?

 

Change your ad placement, esepcially if you have a lot of returning visitors. After a while they tend to ignore ads that are in familiar areas of your site.

The problem could also be related to the advertisements being displayed. If an advertiser runs out of money, those ads are not served. It's possible those advertisers had ads which appealed to your visitors.

If it has not been a gradual drop in clicks, chances are it is the ads being displayed on your site. You can use Google's Adsense Preview Tool and remove up to 200 advertisers. You may find some MFA sites or bad ads you wish to block.

The economy is getting worse, so more companies are tightening their belts. And people, short on cash, will be less inclined to click on ads that remind them of having no money to shop with.

Good luck

 

What content is being displayed? People aren't shopping around much anymore because of the economy

 

It's only been one week, I think you should wait a little longer to evaluate the situation.

 

I am sorry to hear of that.It is hard to explain,the only thing we can do is create more unique content to make visitors come.

 

Hi there,

Thanks all for your replies.

It has been happening to only one site.

I think the following actions can overcome this problem.

1. Creating more unique content so that more new visitors come.

2. Changing the Ads position and color.

3. Put the ad above the fold.

4. Blocking some non-relevant ads.

If anyone has any more suggestions then I will be thankful for them.

Yesterday and today, I see that for me, the number of clicks are decreased more than 50%

Traffic is same.

 

Do you regularlu update the content? What's your site about?
As far as click decrese is concerned, don't be nervous sometimes it happens...

 

Try Changing the Places of Your Ads or Try to Change their colors

 

I happened to the same thing

 

People like to see something new when they visit your site. So some changes could help boost your earnings.

 

this month, traffic is up, and clicks are up. yet adsense revenue is down 30%!

 

am in the same boat mine is over 70%

 

You might want to try rotating your ad colors, it might help reduce ad blindless a little bit at least. Adsense has been down lately for me also and I have more traffic than before.

 

Blend your ads into your site above the fold. The more they look like content the better off you will be.

 

The best way to get banned quickly too
