Anyone else noticing a drop in impressions over the last couple of days? On one site, for example, I was getting about 25 impressions and now am down to 2. About the same on couple other sites.

I even posted more youtube vids few days ago??

Is this just coincidence?

I thnk I am done with adsense/google. Too much dependeence on them is scary. Think I am going to try to go less organic and more affiliate so I am not dependent on google and its uncertaintly adn everchanging models.

LEt me know what you think.

    If your Adsense traffic is 100% organic SERP traffic, that's a mistake.

    Plenty of other sources of free traffic, I get about 2k average per day just from related niche forums.

      I am using youtube, article ads and organic but with very modest success. No where close to 2k per day. Way to go. I own another business - totally unrelated to IM so I get to spend about 2-4 hours per week on IM. I knew absolutely zero to start, but am eagerly progressing through all of the essentials.

      Anyway, thanks for the feedback.

    Yeah mine was weird today too...

    I don't do much if anything with adsense but normally I get 50 impressions a day average on a few properties I have and today I got 1. Strange...

        Page impression is how many times someone has visited any pages on your site.

        If one person visited your site, & loaded 5 of your pages in their web browser you would have 5 Adsense impressions (per adsense Ad block on each page).

    See, keep these things in mind while doing your research work on your adsense account:-
    How many times the page or pages containing the AdSense advertisement was shown to visitors;
    The number of times someone actually clicked on an advertisement;
    what is your click-thru rate, in a percentage basis;

    and ultimately what you have earned that is the main and ultimate goal of yours.
