    Has anyone else's adsense earning gone down this week with the same number of impression/clicks etc?

    March has either been great for 3 days or terrible for 3 days. I'm seeing similar income problems with local retailers, restaurants and a few dotcoms run out of my area -- everyone seems to be having bad days in March.

    Economic reasons? Advertisers not signing back on? Maybe your niche is no longer niche and someone is running a better site for the same ads?

    I wouldn't worry about it. I track my trends and my trending has been very consistent for the 5 months I've been monetizing with AdSense, so I'd say just keep writing, updating and working on making your site usable.

    April has been terrible for me. my impressions are going up but my clicks are going down. Cie la vie, it will most likely balance out by the end of the month.

    Same here. More traffic, same number of clicks (lower CTR) and much less income. I thought I had been smart-priced, but if it's affecting a lot of us...

    This month has been the best yet for me so far. I'm fairly new to niche marketing and 2 out of my 10 sites are up to $1 a day now, finally.

    No offense, but 1.00/day may not be enough to generalize from. That might be 1 more click/day or something. If you have 400 clicks/day and in March that was worth 150/day and in April it's worth 80/day I think that's significant data to work with. Just for example :)
