Much Lower EPC From The USA?

How can I see ads from a different zone?

[OptiRex]

For the past few weeks I have been monitoring my earnings throughout the day and without doubt the second 12 hours EPC is substantially lower than the first 12 hours, more or less 50%.

This has been consistent since the beginning of February and very predictable day in, day out.

Is anyone else noticing such a drastic difference?

Also, does anyone know if it is possible to see the Adwords being served in different parts of the world to actually check what is being shown, apart from asking someone to send screen shots?

adsense preview tool shows ads from countries that you choose.

Wow, thanks no9t9

How long's that been available?

[Zygoot]

At least a year I think.

I am seeing a BIG difference in EPC from U.S. to other countries in my testing.

big difference up or down? I find, US is lower EPC...

[Curiosity]

I'm getting much, much higher EPC in the morning, which fits the idea that clicks from elsewhere pay better than US clicks. Obviously it's time to make a few pages for my UK visitors.

Apologies if I did not make myself clear enough.

Yes no9t9, US working/Internet time would appear to be a much lower EPC for me. During the first 12 hours the norm is 0.25 EPC however once the US starts in earnest it rapidly drops to 0.12-0.15 EPC.

One specific site I have starts every day at 0.50 EPC however by the time it gets to the US work time it drops to 0.15 and sometimes as low as 0.05.

How much this has to do with Adwords budgets running out I do not know however it is a very consistent pattern.

My web sites are for global trading widget information. I'm pretty sure that many Far Eastern clicks I get are from producers seeking possible new buyers using Adwords.

Ok guys, I know that's obvious but someone had to say it!

For me US is much higher.
