page impressions with CJ and AdSense

    I'm kinda confused here, may be its just me :confused: ... can some one explain me why in the world my CJ impressions are so different from AdSense impressions - AdSense shows 3 times less than CJ and I have both ads on the exactly same pages. I fill like I'm missing something here...

    Is the CJ stuff in JavaScript? Maybe they're counting spiders/bots. AdSense isn't activated by those. This is just a guess...I'm not familiar with CJ, or what kind of links you're using.

    The impressions in Adsense are actually Ad impressions NOT page impressions. So if you have 2 ad units on a page then for each page impression it will show 2 impressions in Adsense.

    How many ad units do you have per page?

    Yes I think that riziko is right, I have a similar problem with my account which can get irritating.

    Well, that's the point that Ad Sense shows 3 times less then CJ.. and I have two ad unites on most of the pages. If AdSense showing impressions per unit that means I would have to have much more impressions for AdSense and not less then CJ... I guess Kadence is closer to the truth. But still acorrding to my stats and CJ impressions I have to have much more impressions with AdSense then I have right now.

    It could be that some of your vistors left your site before Adsense Ads was displayed.

    I don't think there is a slight chance of this. But since you mentioned it, now I remember that very rare instead of commercial ads I get Public Service Ads appearing... but it is very very rare.

    Some is and some isn't. The SmartZones are, the plain links aren't. Sometimes they hit a server with an img request to track impressions

    Yes, the plain links are with one pix. image to track impressions. May be CJ shows a sum of all links impressions?

    If you have more than one cj ad on the page it will count an impression for each ad. If you have 2 ads on one page then you have 2 impressions for one page view.

    If you have one ad on one page then I dunno :D

    yes I figures now :) does make sense. It's just all mixed up in my head - ad impressions.. page impressions :) kinda confusing especially if they are not clarified by the advertisers.

    Maybe I missed something, but isn't it against the Adsense TOS to place other conceptual ads on the same pages as Adsense ads??

    I guess you are, unless my english is worse than I thought :D

    Here is a quote from official Google Policies
    SuperSEO, I have 3 ads on 1/2 of all the pages I have AdSense ads.

    Yea I have CJ and Adsense on my site, I have CJ sidebanners and 1 adsense leaderboard and I run a social network. But i get about the same impressions with both and I have ads on every page and tabs. To get maximum impressions let the page fully load and dont click your own ads.
