Hi Guys, Has anyone been noticing a sudden drop in earnings for the past few days? Mine has dropped almost 35%. My traffic has also dropped to about 75% with my rankings still stable. Is it due to the global recession? Anyone else having the same bitter experience? Do share
Traffic is around the same except about a 20% decrease from a week ago. I would say to just build more backlinks.
Earnings were drastically falling on a big site (gets millions of uniques/month), but I cut out 2 of the 3 adsense spots that weren't clicked on as often (leaving the highly-clicked one), and my earnings ROSE to higher than what it was with all 3. Gotta keep a higher click rate, which gets you more ppc as well ironically, which then filters out the bad advertisers, which then gets better ads, which gets you a higher click rate, and it spirals upward from there. I'm only giving adsense about 50% of the rotations on that one spot, where as before it was 100% of all 3 ad spots, and now it's earning me MORE than it was before. Insane. If anyone experiences their earnings coming back from the drop, I'd like to know.
