Abysmal stats

[Sally Stitts]

Are your stats way behind today?
About 1/2 of normal at 1PM Pacific time.
I haven't seen this in a long time.

CPC is good.
Impressions, clicks, CTR are terrible.
Looking for a click dump here.

You?

Same as.

Thank you.
It is always nice to know I am not alone.
Then I would worry.

My CPC and Page Views are normal but everything else is (hopefully) way behind - or, it's just an unusually lousy day.

7:45PM - No improvement -
50% traffic reduction
50% earnings reduction

This is starting to smell like one of those Saturdays when they were performing "maintenance", which produced a 30 to 50% permanent reduction in earnings for the day. I just don't feel a "click-dump" coming along.

Time to consider some serious juggling.

Click count hasn't budged all day here either.

Well, its official. Down over $100 for the day.
It appears to have been a general throttling across the board.
The question is, Why?

Today, Thursday the 23rd, is starting off a lot better.

I don't know why they call it throttling - it should be called braking. I guess it is throttling, as in "strangling". Where did my impressions go? Normally, they are very consistent from day to day, across a broad range of subjects. The only reason for this change is that someone is tweaking the knobs again, at my expense.

How about today? Just as bleek for me. Almost identical to the 22nd.
