Kontera ECPM is just 0.29$, normal?

    I tested my blog for nearly two weeks, the CTR is 3%, with an average 0.29$ eCPM. Earned only 2.77$, which is too low.

    Decide to remove the link. Heard Vibrant has a better payoff but the pageview impression requirement is too high for me.

    Kontera sucks, ecpm was $0.02, I removed it immediately and using infolinks once again, they too have low ecpm now a days but still good as compare to kontera.

    Hi tigergb,

    This is Jonathan from Kontera. In general, eCPM is dependent on what ads are displayed on your site, and that's determined by a variety of different factors including the content of the website traffic sources, geo-targeting, current campaigns running, advertiser preferences and more. Kontera offers an exclusive ad inventory from globally recognized brands as Ford, Oreo, Microsoft, L'Oreal, Intel, Home Depot, Domino's Pizza, Kmart, and more. These ads are the most attractive to site visitors and offer you the highest possible CPC. However, it's possible that for whatever combination of reasons you aren't seeing these ads.

    If you'd like, please contact me at and I can see if there's anything further we can do to optimize your site.

    Thanks,

    How can you even sell ads for less than a cent?

    My stats: 600 clicks, $1.79 ... eCPM $0.04 lol

    Not to mention you completely deleted my earnings for 10+ days, I contacted you and I got no response.

    Hi gooner4ever,

    I don't think I've received an e-mail from you, unless it accidentally ended up in my Junk Mail folder in which case I apologize. I'd be happy to go over your account with you, you can either try e-mailing me again at or through my Digital Point e-mail.

    Thanks,

    Hey gooner4ever,

    I'm not sure with these DP monikers, did you ever manager to get a hold of me via e-mail? (Likewise to tigergb). I'm not sure what the problem could have been but if it still didn't work please try to contact me via Digital Point e-mail.

    Thanks,

    Hey haluvibe,

    Kontera is good for advertisers and publishers. We are the leading In-Text network with over 15,000 publishers and 140 million unique visitors per month and we wouldn't be able to maintain a network of that size if we weren't able to offer our publishers the best results.

    Thanks,
