Your earnings forecast is only a forecast until the 1st of each month when you'll be able to view the exact earnings for the previous month. Furthermore, you may find your earnings' forecast drops (sometimes only temporarily) because of the following reason.
Since each reader's subscription fee is divided between writers at the end of that particular reader's monthly cycle, it may take up to two months for writers to receive all of their earnings from a new reader. For example, if a reader visits your blog on October 25, and their monthly cycle ends on November 20, their payment will be included on your December 1 statement.
The Writer's Account Summary includes the forecasted earnings for the current month. This forecast is calculated by estimating all the payments you will receive from readers by the end of the month, based on how often each reader currently reads your blogs.
Since people change their reading habits over time, please note that the forecast is subject to change and is only intended for informational purposes. Your final statement, issued at the end of the month, will show your actual earnings.
Here are some suggestions that may help increase your blog's readership, which in turn helps improve rankings and earnings:

Please also note that the "Page Views" counter only reflects how many page views you have had and not the number of unique readers, nor does it inform you of each of your reader's reading habits.
For example, if a particular reader has only read you in the first few days of their writer payment cycle then you will see an earnings projection that would include 100% of their writer payment. If they happen to read 9 other writers since then, suddenly your earnings projection from that particular reader would drop to 1/10th the earlier amount.
We hope this helps explain how the Blogit earnings system works.
