		<description>I&#039;ve noticed my ad revenue going down too.  I think the bubble has just burst with Adsense for the same reason it does with any affiliate/publisher program.  Too many people are doing it, and viewers have become desensitized.

What we need is new ad options like linked words and specific product graphics with &quot;buy this&quot; buttons and the like, but I doubt we&#039;re going to get any.

I have a couple of sites where people have written me emails to ask me where to get certain products.  There&#039;s a huge market that Adsense is just not reaching because they&#039;re behind the times.  If someone looks up power tools in a search, they actually want to see ads especially with the best deals on the products.

Ah well...It was good while it lasted.  I&#039;m done annoying my readers with so many ads.  I&#039;ll have a few strategically placed for their benefit because they are actually looking for various products, but that&#039;s about it.</description>

		<description>My friend had me check his stats from his pretty busy site, since he couldnt make sense of the decrease in earnings...

Turns out his clicks are down ... and we are blaming the adsense blindness...  with so many sites and the fact that the ads stand out with the google bold issue....  people are avoiding them...</description>

		<description>Yes, I agree... since last year I found a noticable decrease of adsense earnings... I really think that the % that Google share with the publishers was decreasing, even if the economic situation is not so good anyway... 
But if it goes down like this every month I will search for something else to put in my site...</description>

		<description>Thanks for your article about &quot;the state of AdSense profitability&quot;, or so to speak.

In my opinion, AdSense isn&#039;t faring as well, revenuewise, since their acquisition of the CPM clearinghouse DoubleClick.

Since at least February of 2009, publishers from the world over have seen a dramatic decrease in their eCPM and it&#039;s most likely because the low paying CPM-based inventory that was carried over from DoubleClick.

There might be other explanations, too...</description>

		<description>The same thing here.
I used to make $20 a day, and it has been going down for months.... every month is the lower and lower... Now I am lucky if I get to earn $5 a day... this month the average is $3.4 a day.
In my personal opinion, there are two aspects created this trend, the economic turn down, and it is not just that advertisers are paying less (lets remember that there is always a minimum bid for most keywords), I think Google is paying less for click; and the second is that I really think that people know what those ad are just that ADS, and it may be creating some sort of rejection... I used to click on those ads my self in the past... but not anymore, because I know that those may not be relevant... you know.
I may be taking Google Adsense off my site... for if this continues like this, I am not gonna make a cent</description>
