The BLOGS were killing me

    My god I discovered something amazing, or so it looks but I have no idea why it even works that way.

    As Ive probably stated numerous times, and have bored everyone to death with my repeated posts of septembers low earnings I tried something different.

    Anyway, as of Sep 1 my earnings per click just plummeted, I started earning tons od 1 cent clicks, and 3 cent clicks for all ads on most sites.
    Will, at the very end of Aug, I launched 3 new sites I had been working on, the 3 are BLOGS, each on different subjects. Each BLOG is on blogger.com,
    and on each BLOG I put 2 adsense ads.

    Will, each BLOG has done amazing as far as bringing me new traffic and impressions and clicks.

    But it was right after I published these new BLOGS that all of my adsesne impressions and clicks increased, BUT MY CLICKS PER AD VALUES PLUMMETED.

    I just didn't see how the increased traffic and clicks from the BLOGs would or could make all my site(s) ads worth less, espicaly the non blog sites I have had on the net since 2001.

    Will, for 4 days I have removed the adsense from all BLOGS, and my CTR, and my earnings per click have risen by 50% and in a lot of cases 100% on all my other non blog sites.
    I hardly get any clicks now under 5 cents, and are getting a lot of em for 30 cents and higher again.

    Adding more sites, even ones with a lot of content can be bad I guess ?
    espicaly BLOGS

    This sounds very strange. I don't see how one site could effect another like that. Have you contacted Google about it?

    Links from the blog crowd seem to have low CTR, which will affect CPM. I do not, however, know how this could affect CPC.

    I would suggest you dont jump to conclusions. Aug end and Sept beginning ,many publishers were complaining about low earnings , maybe due to smart pricing.

    Well if possible put back the ads on the blogs and see the effect. If you see the earnings going down again , then maybe you are right. But I dont think one site 's performance can influence other sites of your account.

    I am not able to understand your question. Can you tell in Hindi whats your question?

    Are you trying to ask how to start your blog in blogger.com ? Or you want to add your adsense code to your blog ?

    Well isn't from the site it's on but the ads right? If you had a blog on legal advice you'd probably see your earnings per click go up. Right? Did I just totally misunderstand the whole adsense program?:confused:

    My EPC has dropped to nothing this month (really after the 15th, happens every month) and my blog traffic hasn't changed much in 3 months.

    So, it is possibly a coincidence.

    Just a thought.

    @ sagbee. ..

    log on to blogger, once you get to your dashboard, you get an option to start a new blog. ... this is how you can have multiple blogs under one account.

    @arjun: ^^ I have a query regarding that. Does google have any kind of restrictions on how many blogs a person cahn start under one blogger.com account and more importantly, how many blogs are we allowed to hold under one AdSense account?

    Thanks :)

    The same happened to me. When I started with AdSense in April the first 3 days were great. But when I added the codes to all of my other pages my earnings plummeted (logic would reason that my earnings should have increased with the high impressions). My other pages are not blog sites. I get over 100,000 page impressions per day on all my pages combined so I don't know why my earnings decreased while my click count increased.

    My thinking is if you post the code to pages with poor CTR even though your impressions may be high, your eCPM will suffer due to the poor CTR on your other pages. Eliminating those pages from the Adsense network will resolve the problem.
