Is it just me, or is CPM so very low this last few days? Today is a complete disaster. This is getting absurd, I am making so little money I will start to look for adsense alternitives. Even AdEngage gives me better CPM on some other site with similar number of impressions.
lol, mine is already on the ground. I have adsense on my proxies. Ten days ago, it was $10 per day with no more than 20 clicks. Nowadays, as of today, 9 clicks gain me $0.11. Well, that's cool......
Likewise here; my eCPM has taken a plunge, and I'm starting to worry that things won't pick up again.
I have been running adsense for about 15 months now. Mine goes up and down depending on season. Advertisers will drop your site if it is not converting for them or there is not much competition for your key words. I would say keep building your site with quality content and draw more traffic. You can always try another service and keep your adsense account open.
Relax. The first 1-2 weeks of the year is always a train-wreck for advertising earnings. I'm using about 8 networks and they are all in the floor now. This happens every year. Pretty much all the networks are pushing hard for the end of the year and then all the campaigns end at the same time. They should be back up to full speed pretty quickly. In most years, I recall January ending as a decent month, but the first 1-2 weeks have you really worrying though.
Thank-you for the heads up; the drop in earnings came as a surprise as I underestimated the seasonality of this business.
idea is to make money. whichever program makes more money for you, you should go with that program. adsense might not perform well and pay more for every sites. since you are getting paid more with AdEngage , why not use that for the time being till adsense payout comes back to normal from holiday mode. which is very soon i hope.
