Recent Drop In Google AdWords Referrals?

There are three different PPC managers who have all noticed a significant drop in the traffic they are seeing from Google AdWords. A Search Engine Watch Forums thread shows where three different PPC guys report as much as a 25% drop in traffic from Google AdWords.

Member Shmuel said, "Our traffic is down as well. We're only down about 10% impression wise while our conversion rate is pretty steady." Member PPC agreed, "Yes, I see this as well."

Maybe this is related to Google Turns AdWords Yellow & Changes Click Behavior? We already reported on the Impact of Yellow Google Ads & Click Through Change on CTR & Sales.

Overall, it appears there are now less clicks in those top ad spots.

The numbers reported in those threads seem to be consistent with the new thread. So maybe they are related?
