Its now been close to a year since I joined Adsense, and im sending FIVE times the traffic for the same results. Im sure advertising rates have not decreased by the same amount during this time frame.
What annoys me is its almost like guirella warefare, with Adsense using a type of quicksand strategy.
You start off thinking how great Adsense is, then things start to drop a little, so you add new pages, sites to pick up lost ground and it works for awhile, then the quicksand starts again, so you respond by sending more traffic. things balance out for awhile.
Then you start sinking again, so you make changes to add placement , etc, and miracuosly you get a boost in earnings and you think great, ive solved the problem, only for things to start sinking again after a few weeks. So you start sending more traffic and so on. Its like a trap, the way the earnings go up on changes to give you a confidence boost, then after a few weeks the sink starts happening again. Maybe its just my imagination, but there seems to be a high level of physcology behind this strategy.
