Had a site that slowly built up to around $350 a month not a fortune but helped. Spent a lot of time updating the site with better info and it looks good. On the other site I had adsense ads and links all over the place. Now the ads are there at the top of each page but I am only getting less than half the revenue. My stats from my ISP tells me I now average 20000 page views a day compared to 2000 but Google stats tells me I only getting half of what I used to get. Hows that?

This is rather strange. PageViews from the ISP are not so good, because lot's of them might come from Bots or crawlers, or people with Javascript disabled browser, etc.

Although it's strange that traffic is 10X but google ads stay the same.

If your EPC dropped then maybe you were smart-priced, or maybe the relevancy has dropped, or maybe people are just paying less for your niche (soe niches are very seasonal, like travel).

Mertro<br />Yes thanks for info. Think I know whats happening. Yes the bots are going crazy reindexing my site and as its now got large databases they are indexing every page of the data base? possibly. Also think as the site has lots of new relevant info on the subject and people are finding less need to click the adsense ads. Which is a good regards the users but a bad thing in itself as regards revenue. I can see people are spending a far greater time on the new site and the feed back from the people who are using it is great.<br /><br />To be honest I was worried my site was being used for automated click fraud previously and now as I have changed my site the bots are regrouping.? I am not that worried about the money but I really like all thinks Google and do not want suspended or the like. My old sites submission forms were getting a real bashing from the spammers and thats one of the reasons I changed the site and updated any submission forms so that they need to be valadated before submission which has worked to the extend I now recieve Zero spam<br /><br />regards<br />TP

Well I have a case study that may explain it...

I had a bunch of sites that generated about 1/2 of my traffic, and another messageboard that generated the other half... (this was before they had channels)

I was perking along doing nicely and then decide to shut the messageboard down .. well in one day my total traffic wnet to 1/2 BUT my $$$ DOUBLED!!

I interpret that to mean that google also pays out better on quality ie not so low clickthrough ratios rather than huge pageviews and very very low clickthroughs...
