    website number two - my CTR use to be about an stable 5-10% and now it can range anywhere from 0-10 quite random.. the eCPM was a stable 5-15$ range and now anywhere from 1-5$range..

    This use to make on average 4$ a day, now barely pulls in 1-2.00 range on a good day.


    as for website one - had a constant 20-30% CTR and a constant of $15-25 eCPM range now its about 1 up to 20 but usually very low under 10.
    this one would make 10$ a day and now $2 range on a good day.

    any idea what's going on from those figures? (note these are well estalished sites, each domain is probably around 400-500 days old)

    my first thought is smartpricing.

    how long has this been happening? did you change anything before it happened?

    It's been happening for about 3 months I guess, and I had probably 3 months of owning it also when it was doing great.

    Is there away around this 'smart pricing'

    How did you traffic change? do you use adlogger and counters to see where your traffic is coming from? That may be the source of your strange stats..

    must be smart pricing..i heard if ur traffic starts converting u will be automatically out of smart pricing and back to normal earnings.
