Beta AdSense

Hi,

So what do you think of the new graphs and such?

I like some of it, I hope we will have the option to still use the old if we wish.

I hate a change that is forced on us.

I like it. The coverage value is interesting to note to discover pages where Adsense isn't working. And the trend graphs should be useful. But I didn't find out how to display impression data for Ads that haven't got clicks yet. And CPC is a welcome addition (saves having to do a manual calculation).

How exactly do you find the pages?

Hi,

I disagree with that.

I'm from a school that if it work don't fix it.

I don't mind change as long as the change don't cost something in the long run.

That is a problem. The way I do it is via Ad Channels where each Ad is tagged.

Ideally they (G) would let you see the visitor stats per Ad, but maybe they do when you link your Adsense account with Google Analytics?

But I don't include Google Analytics on my pages unless I think that I really want them to know all the details of my visitor traffic behavior.

i also did return to the old one. it seems like i can't see the analytics link in the new interface. :D

Tried it for half an hour and then rolled back to the previous interface. It just seems cluttered and more complicated to use.
But I think it's worth looking into, there are some features that might be useful

I started to like it once I figured out my way around and how to find the features I use frequently. At first I thought the stats for URL channels were gone until I figured out where they were hiding in the new menu system. At first I was looking under 'My Ads', but then found them under 'Performance Reports --> URL Channels.'

It's not bad. I like the chart that I see at the top of the 'URL Channels' report.

For now while the new on is in Beta, you can click the 'Return to old AdSense interface' link at the upper right.

Unless it's a change for the worse.

I think the new menu system alone is actually less cluttered. The old one had too many items and sub-items. The new one just has a few. Then, when you click an item from the main menu you're taken to a new page which has a new menu on the left side which is specific to that section. I find this to be cleaner than the old system which had one long menu with each item having several sub-items.

After playing around for a bit I changed happily back to the "old" version. Maybe I am just too used to it, but for my needs I have exactly all what I want without a lot of several menus.

I agree with DomainMagnat, it seems more complicated to use

cheers
