Good point... I think people just create similar threads to vent, rant and see if others are having the same issues. Misery loves company... I don't really think it's too big a deal. I'm still pretty new here so repetitive threads don't bother me, and considering how much this board grows daily I doubt people will ever stop posting similar threads to one another.
No. I think it's a trend. At least in a specific keyword area. CPC's started droping two weeks ago and have droped drasticly over last week. Also, some fifty or so MFA sites launched their campaigns so my filter list is basicly clogged with them (altough the filter still didn't kick in). Hope this will change soon.
It's possible my situation was the result of my dad utterly spamming my site with his new 'ad' for his business. I noticed his full-lengthed spam was showing up on damn near every page of mine. (he's new to this) And his area of business is very specific. (yeah, we need to have a chat) I have no doubt that at least sent the CTR down partially. (it's an ugly ad too) Which kind of brings up another interesting point but i'll pretend that isn't possible. On the 28th the day started off normal but then pitted the CTR by the end (off ~-8%). Blocked my dads domain (ads) lol and a few others.. Seems to have helped .. i'll see by the end of today... - Update Well it's barely half into the day and my profit is almost twice both previous days.. Must've done something right
