Yep after seeing the same phenomenon for 3 weeks in a row I can officially say that the more traffic I get, the less adsense pays me.

After watching my sites have record days in Valueclick the past 2 days I've watched my adsense payout drop over 20% for some sites.

Adsense went crazy on the 1st of July with high eCPM then after that my traffic increased and the daily earnings dropped. :censored:

yeah rates are down across the board for me as well. I'm using tribal fusion with value click and adsense as defaults. Things went south on 6/30. My rep said things are pretty much dead from end of June until mid August. So hopefully things will hang on until August :).

Maybe because your impressions are going up, but your CTR isn't, meaning it makes your eCPM low?

I'm talking overall revenue earned. Not eCPM.

Adsense, is great. Do not bash it. All other competitors such as YPN are "scam" companies which lie about eCPM by lowering the real count of your clicks.

The more clicks you get the lower it goes.This is the same across other niches too.
There are only so many higher paying ads to go around everyone.
