    I meant if a particular site in my account is affected, would it carry over to my other sites? Same with pages, would it carry over to other pages on the same site?

    With me, it hit Oct 1, and instantly effected every site(s) or page that I have adsense on, even subdomains and totaly different domain urls. As long as the adsense is using the same publisher info, they got ya.......

    That's what happened with me. It's ridiculous to have them affect other sites. More reasons to have more than 1 account?

    I feel a mass exodus coming on when yahoo launch their system if Google continues to punish it's publishers. I have noticed a massive decline in revenue also.

    I really get the feeling that Smart Pricing, and its effect on publisher pay, can vary quite a bit among pages on the same site.

    My page with the highest CTR -- and it's the highest by a long shot -- is my lowest pay-per-click page ... also by a long shot.

    My other pages, whose CTRs are pretty low (to me), still get decent $ per click, for the most part. And they've done so for a while.

    It sure seems like my highest-traffic page has been SmartPriced on the Ultra-Heavy Extra-Rinse cycle. All the others on my site have been pretty stable.

    FWIW, I've been using Adsense for roughly 10.5 months now.

    So it wasn't a coincidence!! I reported seeing a huge drop in eCPM when adding a new channel/site, and it seems this article confirmed it! What a ridiculous idea to smart price an entire account!
