happened in same way with me

10 clicks and only 37 cents
i don't know whether google is taking more share, or the ads have gone so cheap
but even with a minimum of 5 cents, we should not face such a situation

this way the adsense doesn't remains the best option

It is possible that your clicks were updated but not your money.

So your saying they recorded the first click correctly at 3 cents, but then recorded the second click without the money? The EPC would double from $.015 to $.03. Thats a relief.;)

That's been my experience. Stats that are less than 24 hours old are essentially a "general idea" of what they final results may be.

I've seen my stats take as long as 48 hours to fully settle out.

Sometimes they even go back a week or more and "massage" them. I've had times when half a month's worth of days suddenly had ~150 extra impressions, a few extra clicks and a few cents more earnings (compared to that same period which I recorded in a spreadsheet).

You will find that your revenue is a couple of hours behind your impressions and clicks.

Say you log in at midnight you will get a zero on the new days stats. Yesterdays stats will continue to update for up to 4 hours, at the same time your todays stats will start to creep up....

You must look at the overall picture. Using an end of the week figure.

Its a similiar situation here on monthends and weekends. not sure why it happens. Lots of clicks and the earnings are less than a dollar many times. Other times its exactly the opposite. :)

Chicken Juggler,
<<I had 2 that were worth 2.75 the other day.>>

I hope you mean $2.75 not 2.75 cents.

Unless your end-of-day EPC is similar, I wouldn't put much stock in the intra-dat EPC.
