Adsense revenue plummet fury

[familychoice]

I average about 15 - 25 ad clicks per day which brings in between £5 - 10, and it's been pretty stable for nearly a year now. Over the last two weeks though it's plummeted to 1 or 2 clicks and just a few pence in revenue.

I've checked my sites and my feeds, nothing amiss there. Google have been placing a lot of their own ads on my sites but that seems to have lessened over the past few days.

My page views are still the same, and from what I can see the same type of ads are being displayed. I make sure there isn't overkill by any one company or campaign by using the competitive ad filter. I can't see any logical reason for the drop in clicks apart from dodgy reporting by Google.

Has anyone else noticed their Adsense revenue dropping recently?

I've never had any revenues to speak of with AdSense, so it'd be a bit hard for me to say. I have just logged in, though, and even though my latest report says "1 click", there's £0.00 accumulated. Maybe there's a problem with their reporting tools...

Do you ever do 'mildly irritated' or is it straight to 'fury' every time?

That might have been one of their own ads or a free community thing.

I did seething once but it didn't suit me.

Looking through the Adsense forums it seems a lot of others have had a crap month, in particular over the last two weeks.

No clicks at all today so far despite higher than average page views. Weird.

Pretty poor the last 4 - 6 weeks. We've dropped around 30%. No pattern to it - some days > £30 with a similar number of clicks to days where we get less than half that. Google has steadily decreased the revenues year on year it would seem. There's a thing....

The lack of clicks is the thing that's bothering me. None at all today, but very high page views that would normally have provided at least ten clicks by now. Plenty of good ads on show, masses of visitors but nil clicky.
