Stats delay 18-05-2009

Sites not showing up

[johnnie]

If there's one thing they DIDN'T fix this weekend, it's the delay in stat reporting. Several of my sites are not even showing up in my reports at all, whilst I'm sure they have received traffic. I'll pass up on the suggestion that these sites have not received any clicks so far, given the usualy stats, that's simply impossible.

My god, adsense is really ticking me off these days...

Well, I hope there IS a delay. Yesterday was back to normal and a fantastic day. Right now, my CTR and ECPM are back to crap, so I hope a click dump is on its way!

[johnnie]

The exact same here WolfLover. This can't be a coincidence. Google must be playing games.

[mysticalsock]

Same here, I think there's a power crazed someone at google wielding a big switch :0)

They paid us more so they are taking it back.. and they say there is no ceiling or anything such as that.. what bull..

[carguy84]

ecpm is way off right now (25% or so)

[Ammalgam]

Thank God for you guys.

I would have a heart attack without confirmation from you that there are delays or dumps..

Adsense is not for the faint of heart.

They must have passed them on to me. I've already got a full day's worth of clicks and earnings.

I've had the opposite experience--the one you all are having--and for that reason I don't sweat about this kind of thing. I figure that Google randomly delays reporting clicks and earnings for periods of hours or days in order to make it more difficult for the system to be gamed.

[johnnie]

The extreme swings in eCPM lately have been driving me up the wall! It's varied by as much as 100% of today's eCPM (yup, today is poor..)!

[proboscis]

I've been fairly steady lately even through the maintenance days, but today looks very low so far...

[radix]

or days

why not months, or better yet, years? This way it'd be extremely difficult to game the system.

I have the feeling that G doesn't reports all the impressions today. CTR is above the 2009 average (after 6-15 May being down about 25%), EPC down, ECPM at about the May average.

Its a very normal day in my neighborhood. Everything is in range for a Monday.

[Swanny007]

Yesterday was crap, worst day in a long time. Today is up more than usual, must be a click dump leftover from yesterday.

It's come to the point where on some of my sites I make more with Kontera than AdSense. It was never that way before. When AdSense is no longer the #1 earner on my site I start to look at my options... yeah, AdSense has been frustrating lately...

Usual impressions for a Monday
Usual clicks for a Monday

Only a severe EPC drop

[Lame_Wolf]

Low CTR, but smashed my baseline figure. First time in almost a month. Strange day it turned out to be.

Yesterday is low .. today well my income will drop again .. hoping that the stats are stuck ..
