    Will changing servers, host, IP, etc. hurt my Adsense revenue?
    I currently have servers with several vendors and will be consolidating to a singel vendor in the near future. Downtime should be minimal (less than 15 minutes), if at all.
    Will I see a dip in revenue when I do this?
    If so, how long until things rebound to previous levels?

    I didn't have any problems when I moved... in fact, mediabot found the site on the new IP before the regular googlebot did.

    Thanks. The question I am asking is this:
    will my revenue drop?

    I am currently averaging in the $xxx per day range. I am wondering what others have exerienced. Will my rev drop to $xx for a month if I change IP's?

    Your revenue is not tied with your IP address to say at least.

    AdSense revenue is made up of traffic (unique visitors), CTR and the EPC of ads being displayed on your site.

    I didn't notice any revenue changes that could be attributed to a new IP address or new host.

    I just migrated server 2 days ago. From 50MB to 200MB, so far, no problem. The links remain intact when I do mock-up searchs on the SERPs.

    when I change server, my revenue is double. This is because my new server is faster than the old one.

    Thanks. I just wanted to make sure that I was not going to be dinged for doing this. I had heard from some others that when they changed IP's or servers, ther revenue went south for a month.

    As long as your URL remains the same, nothing should change as far as the end user is concerned. I serve my pages from home and my ISP gives out a new IP address every time the connection drops and has to be re-connected. Thankfully that's only about 5 mins downtime every week, but the crux of the matter is that even though my IP changes(Like changing hosting servers), you can still reach the pages in my sig no matter what :)
