Adsense earnings April 2011

discuss the earnings trend this month

[Rockyou]

I am having a blockbuster start to this month first day, I think its too early to make a call.

[netmeg]

Lookin' good here.

[nethead]

our ecpm is down by good 30% to 50% depending on a site

[sabrebIade]

First day was great, almost Pre-Panda, then BOOM! right downhill.
With no changes to sites.

[tristanperry]

CPC still a fair bit down. CTR today has been okay-ish - perhaps average or a bit below average.

[kd454]

Yesterday good, today looking O.K so far.. Down about 30% Pre Panda but who's counting.

[HuskyPup]

Oh dear, my first look of the day and CTR is well down again, EPC ok though. Interestingly at some point overnight when I was in the crapper I must have had real a big dump! :-)

Sunday ended up being totally normal for me and with stats looking way behind again I'm wondering whether all my metrics are being delayed for hours since 1st April?

Certainly they haven't been marrying-up with what I'm seeing at this time of day but they are doing by the end...strange.

Vice Versa here:-)
CPC looks good, but CTR DOWN.

[JCKline]

Generally this month looks good, but stats seem stuck today.

[TerryZule]

Great day today. ECPM, CTR, and earning way up.

Right after the worst day since Xmas day 2010. Bizarre.

No I have to go do some work finding something else to b*tch and whine about.....sh*t.

[puckparches]

Last month was my best month ever, but the first 3 days of April were horrible. What happened!

[TerryZule]

"the first 3 days of April were horrible" - EXACTLY!

All back up today (4th). Maybe Adsense decided to keep the advertisers happy and make it really cheap for them for a few days....lull them into sense of false security or something like that......whatever. It's late.

Janary, February, March had been great, but now back in the September to December 2010 slump

I'm telling you man, it's a conspiracy! It's a conspiracy! It's the government! It's the government!

</60s freak juice hippie> :)

Google is driving us to the nut house ain't 'em...

[HuskyPup]

AdSense seems to be well and truly stuck for me...nothing's moving, again.

It's about time they dosed those hamsters with laxatives, that'll gee 'em up a bit!

[zerillos]

wow! today is even worse than 1-4 april.
didn;t think they could get so low
something's definitely wrong over there

[derivative]

Echoing the same sentiment as those above. April 1-4 so far has been dismal. Record lows on back to back days. Perhaps something with the new business quarter, etc.

[netmeg]

Big start for me; looks like my season is starting early.

[HuskyPup]

Thank heavens for that...a click dump!

An hour or so ago I was looking at my worst CTR ever, heading towards 0.5% and falling...someone must've fed the hamsters:-)

[jetteroheller]

Tuesday is normal like in March, hope only 1 to 4 April had been bead days. Have just right now 10% more than all Monday.

[HuskyPup]

Stats stuck?

I seem to have the first hour and then nothing whatsoever has updated?

[levo]

seems to be stuck

[JCKline]

stuck for me as well...

[HuskyPup]

So far today, 7th April, horrible, low CTR and terrible EPC.

This seems to be occurring every day now with me getting reasonable click dumps in the last 8 hours or so...now watch for nothing to happen!

[levo]

Same here, after a couple of record days, today is going terrible..

[tristanperry]

Ditto everyone else. 5th and 6th ended up good days (after click dumps), but today things seem pretty dire.

[netmeg]

Yep; slow.

[Richie0x]

So far CTR down 50% and earnings down 30% on the same period in April 2010, despite impressions being 25% up.

Absolutely woeful.

[cien]

Everything had been fine for awhile until today. Very low CTR, down 60% despite same traffic. Hoping for a click dump later today.

[jmccormac]

Abysmal today. Like they have broken something again.

Regards...jmcc

[tristanperry]

Haha. Shouldn't laugh, but it's still an awful day. I think my traffic's slightly up too but CTR and EPC have run away. I hope they come back soon in the form of a click dump.
