First off, I know that Google Adsense changed things since May 1st which puts the adsense revenue in 2 different places to look (youtube and analytics).
So I gave up trying to figure how much revenue I made from Adsense and just wait for the monthly checks.

But I also noticed a serious drop to my traffic mikedancy.com

any suggestions as to why or where to look? the unique traffic info is below.
Thanks in advance

    I don't see your traffic dropping alot, its just fluctuating.

    Is your traffic coming from the search engines? If so then it depends on the volume of people searching for the keywords that you are ranking for. The amount will not be the same every month.

    Maybe you are also losing rankings on some keywords.

    I believe you are using wordpress right? You should be able to check how many UV you are getting for each keyword.

    You probably got hit by a Google update.

    Yes you've probably been negatively affected by google's recent algorithm updates even though it appears you've done no backlinking to any money keywords at all, just goes to show that you can get hit whether you build links or not so you may aswell build some links to try and rank otherwise you're guaranteed no rankings...

    Thanks. I do use Wordpress. I'm not familiar with UV for keywords though.

      login to your wp cpanel, and install [WordPress.com Stats] in your jetpack.
