    Cute talking points but unfortunately all I have for you is facts.

    I have a site right now that made $23 off of 568 clicks. That many clicks in YPN gains me minimum $400. A bit more than a shiny penny..... I guess you'd have to have YPN to know that though so no fault to you.

    I could be wrong but if I remember correctly from when I was doing AdWords campaigns the minimum bid was 10 cents.

    Why? If you're given the answer (I assume we're all trying to "find" how much he has earned) why do you need to calculate it at all? The OP stated already what his earnings are.

    If you want to test something it's got to be with a decent amount of traffic.

    A new site with hardly any traffic hardly makes for a good benchmark.

    It wasn't calculated. Google gave it to the OP in his stats, and the OP posted it here.

    If you need to calculate it and don't have the actual earnings but do have eCPM, just take impressions/1000 and multiply by eCPM Or:

    ((183/1000)*$0.41) or (0.183*$0.41) or ~$0.075 Much the same way as has already been done in this thread a few times.

    you are saying earning = (183/10000*0.41) = impression / 1000 impersion *eCPM :rolleyes:

    how can you calculate earinig using that equation while eCPM depends on your earning accourding to

    you need the earning to caclulate eCPM to use it in your equation for earning. i don't know i am really confused here
    :eek:

    Listen, you need a few of the variables to be given before you can calculate anything. BOTH equations are correct (they are actually the same, just solving for a different variable), but if all you have is clicks and impressions, you can't figure anything out except CTR.

    Now, take the equation you quoted:

    eCPM = earnings/impressions*1000

    and plug the numbers in (allowing for rounding of course) and you'll see both work. Or, I'll do it:

    eCPM = $0.07/183*1000
    eCPM = $0.3825

    $0.3825 does NOT equal $0.41 but only because of rounding to two decimal places because of currency. The US no longer has the halfcent in circulation.


    If you do not have earnings or eCPM, you're SOL.

    Varies. Too many unknown factors (unknown to everyone except google) to answer that.

    Well... you mentioned that your traffic is not US based... I assume they are from Asian? Sometimes traffic from Asian pays horrible (no more than $0.05) because they are not going to convert for advertiser.

    Or it could have to do with the fact that the ads werent up long enough for google to properly spider the site, and you were still getting PSA/ low paying ads.

    That is not correct. I have campaigns on just the pub. network where my bid is 1 cent per click.

    I make on average about 30 cents a click. This is with a sample size of thousands of clicks.

    If you're getting a low ppc then your content is too much of a niche and advertisers aren't competing for the keywords your site contains.
