I logon my adsense and watch the data, clicks is 11, total earnings is 1.59$

But 3 hours later i logon my adsense and watch the data, Clicks is 12, Total Earnings is 1.47$


Why clicks is escalate, but earnings is reduce?

    Are you sure you did'nt missed anything? Lol adsense must be having some negative click through rates now
    Must be some mistake from your side because you must have forgotten the actual earnings and it must be $1.47 before or less than that.
    Thanks

    Maybe two or three of the clicks were from the same person. Google counted the clicks originally but then the advertiser was credited back the money due to multiple clicks from the same IP. I'm not exactly certain, but this is the only reason I can see for it.

      That sounds like is probably it. I have experienced this as well and kind of dismissed it as this.

    Never heard of negative earning. Invalid clicks and zero earning is normal but negative earning is new for me. Are you sure that you have checked those data properly??

    Lol Loz. You never know.

    I'd not worry about the few cents that have been removed from your total. Just carry on building your empire.

    I'm never focused on adsense although I was gonna dabble as a little experiment.

    I do have adsense on a couple of stagnent sites that receives a little traffic each day. Generally an average of $1 - $2 per day. The strange thing was that the other day I earn't zero two days in a row, then day 3 earned $10! No spike in traffic. A little bizzare but there you go.

    I'm gonna set something up soon to see what's possible but I make my money in other ways online.
