Hi All! I'm new to the board this week. Just installed AdSense on my site but I'm only testing the high traffic pages so far. I'm very pleased with the results to date, especially considering my pages are serving general ads so far and should become much more specific once I load the ads site-wide. My question concerns Google's report page. If I request all earnings to date, I get xx.xx number. If I request all earnings based on channels, I get a higher number. Now given that the channels incur a 2 day delay, shouldn't this be the other way around? Any info appreciated for a newbie and if this has already been covered, can someone please post the link. BTW, this board is awesome! Been lurking for the past month and the tips and discussion were what convinced me to go with Google!

TheDonster; Welcome to WW and the Adsense Forum!

Are you using any custom url channels? That could give the results you are seeing.

Hi Ken - Yes I've created a channel for each page so as to monitor each page's performance separately.

google caches the information it shows you and only recalculates it every so often. the channel data might be newer that the aggregated data
