Now, this is a good problem to have, I know, but has anyone else seen a dramatic increase in their AdSense earnings?
I'm not getting click bombed, clicks have only increased slightly over the past month. But my CPC is 2-3x higher than what it was.

 I'm looking for editors, beta-readers, and some demographic research for my upcoming novel, Once Upon a Saturn Moon. If you like reading soft sci-fi thrillers, maybe with a touch of romance thrown in, you can find more information at http://seampublishing.com/once…..aturn-moon

Mine is up a little as well!

 

We actually did get click-bombed earlier in the year and were banned by AdSense for a month or two.  I had to reapply and explain that I wasn't doing anything to make my earnings explode.  They invalidated our earnings for a few months then let us start over.  Our earnings just jumped again in July so I hope that the same thing isn't happening again.  I did just get a payout last week so I am hoping that things are legit this time.  Google isn't very sympathetic when they think you're gaming the system!

Mine's gone up, too.  Just in the past week.  I'm pretty sure mine is because of a rise in CPC, too.  Not sure why.

For what it is worth, I had a spike on July 30th, but otherwise no increase.

Tough to tell as I have been out for 4 days with server migration (to Bluehost VPS) only to have Bluehost explode… but yep, very nice bump today especially considering being offline for most of the day.

My Adsense doubled in the past month, so I was pretty excited about that. Same deal as Edward, I am not getting clicked bombed as the CTR is normal. Let's hope it doubles again in August!

Same thing here….no real increase that I've noticed.

we just switched our google adsense layout and who gets to see them. They are more in the actual content now, but should only show for people arriving via search engines, not anyone with our site book marked. Our CPC seems to be up, but I think thats because we had only skyscrapers before, now we have leaderboards and boxes.

How do you enable for just search engine users?

Also, when you say "they are more in the actual content" do you mean embedded within each individual post? If so, do you or anyone have recommendations on the best way to go about doing that?

I checked mine as well and it looks like the page RPM (Page revenue per thousand impressions – I had to look this up) has increased by almost 70-80%! I'll have to check back on this in a week or so, but this is awesome if it keeps up!

June & July nosedived for me and it's starting to recover to pre-June levels if the month-to-date is to be believed.  We'll see.

I think you're the first person I've heard of who's been unbanned from AdSense. Did you sign up with the same SSN/FEIN or use a different one?
