What's going on with Sedo? I'm getting at best one or two ads that fit the name for every name and sometimes nothing matches. An ad for "1 Tip of a flat belly" seems to dominate every name. It's looking like this is 100% crap feed devoid of Google. Is anyone else seeing this?
 
Yep. For the keyword "pet carrier" I'm getting....

Perhaps a late last day/very start of the month problem. That's just a guess though.

They must have bid on a ton of keywords on the crap feed.
 
It's a clusterf*ck. I'm glad I'm not the only one seeing this. Nothing related is being served on Sedo pages right now.

On another note, September 1st 1939 marks the beginning of WWII. Maybe that signifies something.

Some of the crap I am getting all over the place:

Looks like they are going 2-click without telling anyone. That is BS. Crap feed on front - the better ads are second click. Gonna have to go through and make everything 2-click and then overide all the crappy categories it tries to set for everything.

A lot of work to re-optimize everything in my portfolio :(
 
I don't want 2 click bullcrap. If this is the case, all my portfolio goes to Parked. I expect some answers in the am and they'd better contain the word "sorry".

CTR is 2% right now. This BETTER be a glitch.
 
Same problem here :noidea:, ads displayed are completely unrelated.


example, KEYWORD "Pheromones"

same case for all other domains :suspicious:






.
 
No announcement from Sedo yet?

75% of my traffic & revenue is European. So far, this glitch has brought the daily stats down to a fraction of what they should be.

I've tested a few domains and it appears that whatever it was, it fixed itself.
 
Today is my worst RPM day for at least the last 32 days.
 
I am not seeing this on the ones I have checked.

But, quite a drop in PPC from yesterday so it may be going on with those I did not physically check.

This is pathetic!

Earnings $4.42
Uniques 749
Clicks 28
CTR 3.74%
EPC $0.16
RPM $5.90
 
This went on for at least 10 hours between yesterday and today.
 
We have a notice:

More details from the ad provider

Our primary ad provider informed us that they released a code change on the afternoon of August 31. This code change affected the relevancy of ads provided to their publishing partners. As a result, some of their publishers were impacted and may have realized lower revenues. The issue was resolved within ten hours and measures have been taken to ensure that the issue does not reoccur.



The ad provider ensures us that they are strongly committed to the success of their publishing partners and strive to make their systems and internal processes robust so that issues like this happen as infrequently as possible.



I didn't know Google had a crap feed.
They left off the part about lost revenue reimbursement. :)
