Comments on: Google Bans Deceptive AdSense Ad Placements http://www.memwg.com/deceptive-ads/ Eric Giguere's AdSense Tips Mon, 02 Jan 2012 15:55:31 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3 By: Candles http://www.memwg.com/deceptive-ads/comment-page-1/#comment-4871 Candles Fri, 11 Apr 2008 03:53:43 +0000 http://www.memwg.com/deceptive-ads/#comment-4871 I, too, noticed something weird about Adsense over the last month. Prior to early March I was probably averaging 15-25 cente per click overall. Then, suddenly, it dropped down to less than 10 cents per click. That went on until yesterday when it jumped back up to the previous level. I hope it sticks. Regarding the "crackdown" - so, is Google now going to quit recommending the large link blocks at the top of articles (which always seemed to me like trying to "fool" visitors into thinking it's a list of resources)? Or, are they going to ban 250x250 image/video blocks (which often look like an embedded video)? Pot, meet kettle. I, too, noticed something weird about Adsense over the last month.

Some people are wondering if it's an indication of a slowdown in online advertising spending as the US economy worsens. Of course, Google's always tweaking things, too, so who knows?
