My Adsense revenue dropped dramatically after few months whereas my websites traffic didn't have any decrease. I researched and came to this conclusion that users didn't like to click on the ads like they were used to do it before.

Is there anybody else who has experienced this?

Weboma looks good. But, you shouldn't get sad because you're not earning because it seems to be pretty normal for tech-related sites.

I don't think their should be a problem if your stats are staying about the same. Maybe you could try moving the ads around a bit. Maybe your visitors will notice the ads if you move them. (But still keep them blended in)

No I was not talking about weboma. I have several websites. Something I said was the problem that happened few months that Adsense started working. I found out that although the traffic was the same but the Adsense revenue dropped.

When I investigated, I found out that internet users learnt about the Adsense and they knew that it is a paid ad. Before, they thought that it is just a link like other links and they clicked on them but when they learnt that they are paid ads, most of them didn't like to click. That's the point.

How do you know that they figured out they were clicking on ads?

Did you have them fill in a survey or something?

I did notice a drop in my adsense revenue during late December to Mid-January. My traffic was a bit less than usual so it is not the exact same situation, but my CTR was a lot lower than normal.

Has your revenue rebounded?

All your visitors can't just decide at a specific date that they want to stop clicking on your ads. So this is out of question. Adsense blindness is out of question for the same reason.

I guess the problem is in the type of ads that Google is presenting on your website. They are simply not related to your website? well, maybe?

This means that the type of ads the Google is publishing on your website is so cheap that made your revenue drop.

You should give it time.

No no. I am talking about the time that the Adsense started working. I had several websites and monetized them with Adsense. It worked perfect and was used to make $4000 to $5000 per month.

It was like that for few months but after a while it started dropping month after month. I ran a survey and found out that users have learnt that Adsense is a paid ad and didn't like to click on it whereas they thought that they are link other links before.

Yes I ran a survey and also talked to ordinary internet users. Some of them told me that as they never order anything through the internet, they don't like to click on the paid ads and make more expenses for the advertisers.

No they didn't decide to stop clicking on the ads at the same time. My Adsense revenue dropped gradually month after month.

This is also true that Google changed many things and caused the Adsense drops for many webmasters but that was not the main problem.

Ad blindness and also ad blockers are big problems too.
