Adsense mix up the links

Posted by | December 18, 2009 | Adsense, Adsense Placing

It looks like Google Adsense have made a misstake with the links and ads in Adsense.It made people believe that Adsense links made more money then they should. Here is an email you should have gotten from Adsense by now.

As a publisher using link units on your pages, we’re writing to let you know about a recently resolved reporting issue that affected your account.

We discovered an issue with the way that earnings from link units were being displayed in publisher accounts, which resulted in some of your ad unit earnings being incorrectly attributed to link units instead. However, this was only a reporting display issue and so your overall earnings and payments were not affected. We’ve resolved the issue, and as a result, you may now notice slight differences when you look at reports for previous months. Specifically, when you generate separate reports for link units and ad units, you may see that earnings from link units on a particular day have decreased, but that the ad unit earnings for the same day have increased by the same amount.

Again, please be assured that your aggregate earnings and payments were unaffected, so you’ve been credited for all valid clicks and impressions. In addition, this issue has not affected your ad performance in any way.

Your reports will now accurately reflect your earnings from link units and ad units – we apologise for the inconvenience and any confusion caused.

Yours sincerely,

The Google AdSense Team
