Low CTR today?

Or is it just me?

I just noticed that today (17 September) my CTR is about 1/3 of the usual CTR rate. Is it just me or anyone else noticed similar behaviour?

My CTR was quite constant in the last 12 days, +/- 10-15% what is normal. But - 66-70% is not normal at all... Well, we'll see what happens.

My CTR has been quite low in the last few days but todays has been the highest yet!

IMO, it's difficult to compare CTR from different sites with AdSense. Advertisers come and go all the time and it could be that one has come into to my area of business and one has gone out from yours!

Wait for the day to finish to draw conclusions. Often the stas are behind and you never know if the columns are in synch. My CTR sometimes jumps up and down over 100% several times in a day, so I'm sure the impressions and clicks are simply not synched over that time.

Relax, wait 3 days, plot a graph of averages, then get worried ;)

Well, Wednesday's are my worst days.... Just noticed that Wednesday the CTR is usually lower by 50-75% than on the other days... Hmm, strange...
