Heart Attacks Due To Google’s AdSense

I’m sure some AdSense publishers felt a bit sick today seeing their earnings. For some reason, the stats shown in the AdSense console stopped updating early this morning (Pacific time) and were static for most of the day. They’ve started updating, finally, but they’re still way behind where they should be. (Or else I’ve having a really bad day!)

According to an official post in the AdSense help group, Google’s working on it:

I’ve just received an update from our engineers: they’re still working
on resolving the issue, but they have confirmed that no statistics or
data have been lost from your accounts. I’ll let you know when I have
more info about when you might expect to see updated stats. Again, we
appreciate your patience.

Lots of buzz about this today, of course:

And on and on it goes.

There is some speculation that the integration of Google Custom Search with AdSense for Search is at the root of the problem.

    Strangely enough this is (middle of the Google Day here, GMT +8) one of the better days ever. Is there only a finite amount of AdSense payots per day and to give to one they have to take away from another? LoL. Seriouly, I certainly hope they get it fixed for everyone. And as for the new search connection … I’d really, really like to run Google search on my blogs, but their designs as so stone ugly … can’t a multi-billion dollar corporation afford a guy/gal who can look at common web templates and make a search plug-in that fits? Or use the same engine that allows customization of AdSense? For now, it’s a mess.
