Weird stats, fall in clicks, rise in earnings

    Yesterday I received 189 impressions on my blog, 39 clicks, and earned only 46 cents

    Today I received 66 impressions on my blog, 19 clicks, and earned $3.91

    What caused this weird change in earnings? I have essentially similar ads on my page and do not have referrals 2.0 on my site so that's not the cause of today's higher earnings.

    I'm happy to have $3.91 today but sad that yesterday made me only 46 cents after 39 clicks!

    It means your ads are converting better.

    cost per click has nothing to do with convertions.
    it has to do with advertisers bid on that keyword.it will change all the time.

    If google finds that your site is not converting well then they will smart price you which gives them cheap ads.
