    Do you own your own domain . . .or did you change from url.oldhost .com to url.newhost. com?

    I really wouldn't know. . . I'd be interested in what others say on it.

    Could you give us the URL of the site?

    there is no sure way to find it out. you can either get adwords account and run your keywords through their tool, so that you will get an idea of what advertisers are paying for it

    you can use yahoo overture bid view tool as well

    Funny no one mentioned. But you just broke the TOS by revealing your CTR. Better edit it out while you can or you'll be starting a new thread "Why the Hell I was banned" :D

    The ads I'm displaying do depend partially on the host I'm using and what sites I do have in the same hosting reseller account or are being serviced from the same server, so ... I do think that the switch could be to blame here.

    That's really odd. Could it be an IP thing?

    You’re probably already aware, but it could just be the time of year, etc. Could just be bad luck with moving at the same time as a change in payout. IP ok? Not blacklisted right? Unique IP?

    I can't imagine how an IP address would affect the type of ads you are receiving.

    I know google won't tell us :) but we can do some thought reverse engineering.

    IMO IP doesn't/shouldn't mean anything when it comes to ads delivery, correct me if I am wrong here...

    I do not think the ip address of the server has any effect on the ads being displayed.

    I have several sites on one reseller and they are all targeted ads.

    Yeah, seems like your site is targeting low paying keywords and the domain change caused a little 'confusion' :)

    hapens to me sometimes. once the ads were confused they started displaying ads about cats and pets. the only reason i can find was the keyword "pawprint", which appears 10 times in my whole blog page.

    Where did he do that?

    I thought we were allowed to discuss overall money earnings, but just not actually CTR stats?

    He has edited his post but someone had quoted him in his posts. I am not sure that saying that you are earning USD $20 is violation of TOS or IS IT ? :confused:
