Back in Business

My Adsense impressions, click-through rate, and revenues are back to where they were before.

From March 28 to April 2, the impressions and revenues quintupled and have stayed at this level.

No explanation from Google (I was too lazy to ask), and I guess my earlier theory on Adsense and smut didn't pan out, because I didn't remove any old entries.

Do you track which ads people are clicking on? Maybe folks put in more ad buys through AdWords for smut keywords? Or, the ads that resulted in clicks resumed their SEM budgets?

Unless you track which ads get clicked, you'll never know.

I don't track which ads get clicked (it seems too complicated), but I find it hard to believe that over the course of 20 posts, there was that huge a swing. I have over 2600 archived entries, after all, and those have stayed the same. (And they get the lion's share of traffic.)

No more comments! Either someone has violated Godwin's Law, I'm tired of the discussion or, most likely, the ten-week window has closed. You can, however, contact me through email.
