impact on earnings

Although I do not have any precise figures, it seems obvious that many publishers continue to join AdSense.

If the growth of advertising inventory on the publishing side is growing faster than demand on the advertiser side, there is clearly going to be somewhat of a dampening effect on earnings for publishers. If advertisers sense that there is lots of suitable publishing inventory available, they will bid less.

Although I have just recently joined AdSense, it seems that this has already been at work over the last couple of years of AdSense. I have read innumerable posts from publishers reminiscing about how they used to have a much higher EPC.

It would be nice to see some detailed historical data on how returns for AdSense publishers have changed over the course of time.

Regarding my own site - CTR has been lower but EPC has been much higher over the last couple of weeks. The increase in EPC has sharply outweighed the drop in CTR resulting in a higher ECPM. I have no idea as to what has happened - too many variables.

I do not put too much stock in these short-term trends at any rate. I have seen a lot of ups and downs in various areas in just four months on AdSense. I will only get concerned if problems continue for an extended period of time.

For me, AdSense remains the best option for monetizing my site. It requires a minimal amount of intervention on my part and allows me to spend the maximum amount of time producing content.
