Most of us have speculated as to why. Some say (myself included) that adwords advertisers 'turn off' or 'slow' their adwords accts so as not to leave them unattended over the weekend. Some attribute decreasing traffic on weekends to the fact that in the northern hemisphere, people take advantage of the summer weather to get outside on weekends... whatever. There's truth in them all. But I made a broad change across my sites on Friday night (it's Sunday night here now) and my adsense earnings are up to mid-week levels or a little better. What did I do? I put this frame breaker code in the <head> of all my sites: <script language="JavaScript"> It's the only change I made to my sites. My weekend traffic levels are average based on most other weekends, but my clickthru rate is waaaaay up based on other weekends. I get a lot of traffic from Ask.com and some of my articles have been referenced at sites like About.com and a few others which frame my pages under their header. Now that I have the frame breaking code on there, my adsense ads must be more targeted or something because earnings and clicks are up. I hope this carries on throughout the week as well. I know frame busting code has been discussed here before because I got the above code from a WW thread, but never got around to trying it until now. I'll report back on this in a couple of weeks when I have enough data to crunch out some % for you all. Til then, I'm in love with frame busting! K
Usually for me (and a lot of others judging by posts on other adsense forums) weekends suck for adsense earnings.
