Why does CPM fluctuate so much? I usually am shy of $10 CPM and on days, drop to under $5 CPM whereas yesterday, a whopping $20+ CPM? Same blog, no site changes, just CPM changing. I'd like to keep the $20+ CPM
Are you saying a higher CTR results in higher CPM? What would be the best CTR for the max CPM, does anyone know?
its based on impressions and the advertisers If you suddenly get more traffic one day but the amount advertisers are spending doesn't change then the CPM will go down. Opposite can be said. You get more advertisers competing drive the cost up. CPM will be higher.
Its just an equation? It's calculated by dividing your estimated earnings by the number of page impressions so it would chage depending on number of visitors.
on adsense it is not CPM itself, it is eCPM. "estimated CPM", its a calculation of your Click-Earnings - to -Bannerviews Ratio 10$ earning with 10000 views calculates to $1 per 1000 views cpm
