Ok , i thing now advertisers are paying low for there ads , since they know that theres not much return of adwords now

I have also noticed a change in earning over the last week or 2. It is possible that some advertisers have lowered their budgets for their PPC campaigns.

[Rohitpatel]

Well because of smartpricing advertisers set low pay for keywords and that is a reason behind this low earnings. It is very bad for us.:(

how does adsense work?

[Rohitpatel]

Well Advertiser pay money to Google by using Google Adwords. They set price per value. We publishers show their ads throgh Google Adsense. They pay money for every valid click performed on that ads.

Adsense has always fluctuated for me. I have given up using it really now. I am trying other networks to see if i get better results else where. I just aint keen on google they have so many demands - life can be so much simpler.

On the advertiser side, this had to happen. When programs are new everyone is all hyped up, so they will get carried away with their ppc bids. As time goes on, they settle down and figure out that they can come out ahead by bidding way less. It was bound to level off sooner or later.

I bet things go back up in about July when everyone is looking for traffic. Online activity tends to slow down during the warmer months so people tend to advertise more to keep their numbers up.

I think that's correct along with the notion that adsense clicks aren't worth all that much insofar as real sales. To me, it's always been a little bit of a fake market.
