No money today for me so some fun!

No traffic, time to play in the street:-)

Sunday 2nd July should easily surpass my worst day of the year...January 1st!

I have not yet even overtaken Xmas Day it's that bad so I thought, how does it compare?

Today v January 1st 37.74% so far at nearly 19.00 UK time

Today v 2006 daily average 18.29%

Ah well, at least there's enough for a couple of beers tonight:-)

As Joey says " How're you doin'?"

PS I'm not blaming Google, holidays, hot days and rainy days happen.

The song "smelly cat" is what comes to mind.

When AdSense or traffic is slow, it's perfect time to eather do family time or build content.

My AdSense earnings are higher than usual today :P

(But my main money maker is doing 50-60% worse because of the good weather :( )

Ain't Adsense great?
Either you make cash, or the weather is good!

Bear in mind that it can take several hours for reports to be updated.

Since we never know how current the day's report is, I don't let it concern me too much until several hours into the following day, when it's finished updating.

Thanks for giving me the first really good laugh of the evening!

BTW my traffic is fine, not US dependent.

Opti-Rex,

instead of playing in the traffic you can join me for a long walk off a short pier. :(

First you good and me bad,now me good and you bad.

Worries me as that means we haven't settled from the last 3 months of adsense crazies. Damn - I'd feel a lot better if both of us were good as I've a feeling you might have a worthwhile site too.

Anyone any clues to what's going on?

Yeah, my niche construction products are high ticket price items therefore it's fairly reasonable to also assume that the companies and people searching can afford holidays and have days off...hence less searches and traffic for my products.

That's my rationale anyway:-)

Yesterday's earnings etc. were right where they should be.

Today the impressions look good, but click through is abyssmal, or stats just aren't updating.

On the bright side, I have a new site that MSN is loving and it's summer oriented. Just gotta see if the visitors love to click on adsense. Or if they would like to buy a few products through affiliate programs.

Made myself go to a holiday barbecue (really wanted to be home creating affiliate links). Is that sad or what.

Scary thought for the day. My husband and I just booked tickets to go to the Experimental Aircraft Show in Oshkosh Wisconsin. (I will be away from my computer and internet for 10 days).

Oh well, Sunday recovered a little however it still ended up the second worst day of the year after January 1st with the following:

1st July v 2006 daily average 64.39%
2nd July v 2006 daily average 54.76%

Even though Europe seems to be burning up in a heatwave my own logs are showing a respectable start for the day...someone's going to have a huge air-conditioning bill!

That is scary. Being away from wifi, has the same effect on me as Superman touching kryptonite. I become weaker .. and slightly dizzy...

okay, I'll join the woe is me club. Sunday was my worst day in 4 months. Revenue about 20% of a typical day. Impressions and visitors also down, so probably just people with lives, living.

Hahaha...it's just reassuring for those who may have panicked thinking the sky was falling in on them to know that they're not alone at the moment.

Interestingly we've produced a really nice graph today showing linear and poly earnings since we started AdSense with the growth and waves remarkably consistently tracking previous years and seasons almost religiously.

And there was me thinking I didn't have an AdSense season!
