YPN is paying less on Christmas?

    While BidVertiser is paying me 2x the normal revenue (from $60/day to $125/day) during the week leading to Christmas, YPN is paying me much less due to the decrease in CTR. On one of my website, YPN CTR is flat 0% !

    Anyone's experiencing the same?

    Could be ypn's version of smart pricing too. I have seen steady rates for months, then rates plummet for a few weeks, then rise again. Either smart pricing or lower advertisiers advertising on your site(s)..... or could be none of the above. The one thing Ive discovered while being in AdSense and YPN since they both started is: Expect change just when you think you got things figured out........

    Bad days for me too. It used to be much better, but perhaps this is only temporary. The bad days like that (if not worse) happened in the past too, then things got much better. I am hoping this is what's going on here, or else it's really bad.

    On a site that I've run separate campaigns of Bidvertiser, YPN, AdBrite, AdSense and CPX on, Bidvertiser performed the worst out of all of them by a looong shot. Why am I not surprised that someone with 2 referral links to Bidvertiser in their signature is spewing this out.

    The whole purpose of this thread was to promote the thread starters bidvertiser affiliate link in his signature. I see no other purpose of this thread.

    Proof:

    How would he even guess that YPN Is paying less on christmas if he has 0% CTR. Clearly he can't measure it if he didn't get a single click.

    Game set and match.

    I am running a network of websites here, alright? I said one of my website has 0% CTR not the whole network. The only reason I created this thread is to ask if anyone is going through the same experience (read the question in my first post). If you don't or do, just say so. Don't hijack my thread because you want to play "mod". Also, you are talking like you have nothing in your sig. I mean c'mon you've got 4 links!

    Rants OFF.

    I would appreciate if anyone could tell me your YPN earnings during Christmas. This is all I am asking.

    The second half of December is clearly lower than the first one, and the daily earnings are getting lower practically every day. I hope the New Year will reverse this trend or else I may lose my patience...

    Mine has steadily gone lower plus the ad's have not been targeted right for the last 10 days or so.. Sometimes I don't get any ads..

    It started right around the time Yahoo started going on Vacations etc for the holidays..
