"Your Adsense Payment Is On It's Way"..........

I got this email the other day and was quite suspicious of it! I did a little checking around and I found out from Rose that it seems to be a legitimate email from them.

Rose said she posted a query about this on one of the adsense-related forum boards and that she got a reply almost right away from one of the senior members of the forum who said that the email was legitimate.

It seems that Adsense has been sending this kind of email for a while now but this has been the first time that I think I ever got one.

I'm not saying 100% that you should trust this email because I was suspicious when I saw that the links in the email didn't go directly to adsense so I didn't click on them!

As always if you are suspicious about an email then you should go directly to the source and NOT click on the links that are provided in the email. If you have your suspicions then you should go directly to the Adsense site, send them an email asking them if it was them that legitimately sent you the email!

Sometimes You Can Get The Strangest Kind Of Results With Adsense!

I was looking at my Adsense numbers today and noticed that I got paid 1 cent for 8 clicks???????? That kind of seems unusual!

Also too my earnings seem to be down for the past few days. I'm kind of guessing that it has something to do with the holiday weekend.

But we still have a few more days to go before the month ends so I'm working to get my adsense earning numbers up.

My Click-Through Rates Are Really, Really Low!

This is something that I'm not too ashamed to admit because it seems to be happening to a lot of other Adsense publishers as well!

My click-through rate used to average at least 10% and 10% was actually my click-through rate goal. But starting as far back as of the last few months of 2009 my click through rates have decreased a lot!

It is something that I am really going to have to work on so that I can get back to my click through rate goal of at least 10%. Individually my CTR rate averages about 10% or sometimes even higher but when you add all of my Adsense sites together my CTR rate is quite low.

On the bright side this does give me the opportunity to work on some ideas that I have so that I can increase my CTR rate. But I do think that a lot of this has to do with the way that the adsense ads appear on my sites! I really can't understand what kind of change could have occurred within the last few months to make the CTR rates go down so much????
