---- Why an AdSense Earnings Drop is a Good Thing

My adsense income was slowly dwindling as well, doesn't matter which site or topic, the clicks are penny clicks most of the time (though i'm sure adwords is charging much much more to the advertiser).

I added a link unit in a prime location, instantly my total earnings doubled on the first day, up about 75% the second day... now on day 4 they're the same again despite sending roughly 50% more visitors off site via adsense.

I did some quick math, i'm receiving less than 7% of what it would cost me to advertise on my own sites with adwords... something just isn't right. I'm considering removing adsense and contacting future advertisers directly as well.
