AdSense Channel Questions?

[Billy!]

This may sound stupid, but 7 days ago, I created 200 channels and I have noticed there is now two reports I can look at....

1. Aggregate data and
2. Channel data

My Example Only!
Looking at the amount of money made at each for the last 7days Aggregate data says I have made $20 and Channel data says I have made $40 (example only)

(example only) Normally I make $20 a week, now I am making $60

Please tell me if this is correct.

So does this mean I get paid extra for the Channel data on top of the Aggregate data giving me a total of $60

Because if that is right, since having the channels on my sites I have made and extra $40 for the month.

From WMHQ:

Everyday, my 'aggregate' clicks are about 15% more than the sum of all my channel clicks. Why do I have missing clicks?
If you are using URL channels, some of these clicks could have been generated from cached versions of your page appearing in search engine results. Also, someone might be framing your content so the clicks are attributable to a different URL. Using 'www' in your URL channel can also have an effect on tracking.
If you are using custom channels, it is likely that one of your ad units might not be attributable to a channel.

Of course, the opposite (For you) could be true... I don't think, however, the just adding channels could explain the increase in reported $'s

Adsense reporting = weak at times. Don't count the chickens til the check hatches

Thanks Allan, Much appreciated again!

I just don't understand why today My Aggregate data earned $3 with 8,088 impressions and my Channel Data earned $9.95 with 13,788 impressions.

It is frustrating me when I see that I make heaps with channel data (I know I don't physically get the channel data money) and I make stuff all with aggregate data.

Sorry if I sound stupid!

That is interesting. I was able to (accidentally) set up multiple channels for the same ad group. I wonder if that's what happened in your case. You'd probably notice that in your channel listings, though.
I am getting less than half of my total visits showing up under the channels, even though all of my ads are tracked with Custom Channels. I'd be curious to know why this is happening.
