		<description>&quot;Google is scamming me.&quot;

Don&#039;t worry you are not the only one- they are doing it to everyone - and their only excuse is they can (that is till we all start screaming - band up against them).

I think even though their revenue might be down somewhat, however I think they are using this as an excuse to keep even a bigger share of revenue for themselves - since they don&#039;t tell you what percentage of the revenue they give to you anyway. 

You follow this discussion @ &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.webmaestero.com/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Webmaestero.com&lt;/a&gt;  also.</description>

		<description>&gt;&gt; The letter from Google does not reassure me. If Google’s revenues go downfrom AdSense then they’ll probably just give us publishers less money per click to make up for it. Google always wins!
&gt;&gt;
Google is scamming me.  

My account is at $99.70 today.  Once it hits $100 I am pulling all google advertising and getting a new advertiser.  This is a bunch of crap.  I donate 50% of the money to Ron Paul&#039;s campaignforliberty.org anyways and the rest goes to pay for the server colo which I am now in the negative.  I&#039;d rather see google get zero and I get zero than to have them screw me over.
Sell it short baby.. GOOG</description>

		<description>My revenue is way down since Sept-Oct.  It was bringing in about $40 per month from my site ( no changes ) and it is now a dismal $13.00 for december and $16.00 for November. 

I think it&#039;s time someone sold google stock short.. I would imagine revenue could be down by 40-50%... so much for the $500 stock.</description>

		<description>I haven&#039;t noticed a decline really.  Obviously the type of web sites you operate have a lot to do with this. Just like the stock market, you need to diversify.  In a bad economy people are less likely to click on ads for new cars perhaps, or click on ads for expensive toys.  With unemployment at an all time high, I bet the sites listing jobs are seeing an increase in traffic...
