Anybody else notices a huge drop on Wednesday?

Hi, I am quite new to this but I noticing for the 2nd time in a row a serious drop in conversions on Wednesday. (I am targeting Europe countries). Anybody else seeing this in their data? It seems conversions dropped about 75%!

I've seen a drop yesterday (tuesday) and even today.
Are you talking about all EU countries or a specific one?
And have you tested other offers / other cpa company ?
Is your tracking working etc. etc.

Hi Dennis,

Tracking is working for sure, currently I am targeting BE and NL and 2 offers.

CTR's are quite normal (banner + lander), only conversion rate is getting slammed. I have to admit that I am not in 1000 leads per day, but it is significant, that's why I am asking in this forum.

Yesterday was quite ok, drop started during the night.

If you are doing CPIs then its google doing their magic.

Hi iAmAttila,

I am not doing CPI's, the lead is DOI.


Could you clarify what you mean with Google Magic Did you have some experience as a spectator?

There are to many factors that could interfere with conversions.
Weather, advertiser changes, Cake was down yesterday on 2 CPA companies I use (havn't tested others) , but this was only for 10 minutes each.
I think it had to do with an upate or something. But please ask you AM to find out more about it...

Yes Wednesday was a poor day for me mainly on one source. Perhaps it is the same source for you. Are you seeing this across many sources or mainly one?

Wednesday in France (Europe) is always the worst day of the week.
Traffic stay the same, but conversion drop.

That's, in part, due to the fact that there is no school for kids on wednesday PM, and that's probably harder to finish a conversion with them around. That's especially true for adults verticals.

Maybe that's the same in other Europe countries ?

IAmAttila and Google go together like love and marriage, like horse and carriage.
