seems like my adsense took a dive

    recently my earnings and clicks have fallen dramatically. For the last 2 months until about a week ago, i was earning a decent amount per day for my site. All of a sudden, its been crap. Haven't made significant changes to adsense. I guess its time to stop worrying about adsense and stick to traffic generation...thats my big problem

    Mine have done the same. Normally 6-20 clicks a day per site. Yesterday was a good example of 0 clicks on any site. Today, there has been 1 click and it was a big whopping 1 cent.

    i don't understand what's happening. I guess when you don't have significant traffic, changes like this will be common. After 2 months of steady earnings i thought adsense would only increase. guess not

    i think it's not about the traffic. Your site is nice but try blending your ads by removing the borders and please remove the infamous advertise on this site. just a tip. ;)

    i just unsubscribed from the "advertise on this site" thing. How long does it take to for google to remove those ads.

    also i think my site looks better with the borders on the ads but that may be the reason my money has taken a dive. Do you like the placement of the ads?

    Your first 2 ads look very well blended into your site. I'm surprised you are not getting any clicks. Did you do something that is generating traffic from people who are curious but not necessarity interested in clicking? I find that this happens sometimes. For example when you do "digg", etc.

    I'm going through the same. Don't know what's up. Not that traffic was huge, but measured adsense in $ per day; now, in single cents/day.

    most of my traffic comes from msn and yahoo....not much from google yet

    i'm working on some articles to ask other tech sites to post and link to me to try to increase traffic.

    That is what happened to my sites. First it wasa day of all PSA ads, then the clicks took a nose dive, then yesterday no reported clicks at all from 10,000 impressions, now today, only 1 click and it was worth a penny. Very Strange

    I also had a sudden nose-dive of about 20%. I made no changes before it happened. Then again, I had been running considerably over what I was used to, before.

    Today I have a few channels that have had clicks for hours but no revenue, I think the reportings are a little off.

    Adsense dissapeared from one of my sites today, still gone for no apparent reason... think they are having some issues.

    Stats seem slow here, too. At least I hope that's what it is.

    my earnings have dropped too, I think this may have to do with the end of the month and budgets being worn out... but true, after a good increase the adsense earnings are dropping...

    My front page has no ads, yet the sub pages do have. Can you please check my Cape Town site to see if you see anything? Please don't click the ads. Thanx.
