Hi, For the past week, I've received more money from impressions than I would usually. Is anyone else experiencing this? I hope this continues!
Yes, i do. And i found that the recently the CPM is getting high. DP adsense revenue sharing is giving me $0.37 CPM this few days
I also noticed this - Adsense eCPM has gone up on all my content sites for the last several days. Also I notice that for my PPC clients, the adwords bids are getting more expensive. Perhaps many here on DP will say its a typical fluctuation for Adsense publishers but I wonder if it could be a sign that advertisers are deciding again to invest in marketing to grow business? This would be typical for an early-stage economic recovery and this time around it seems likely that they will invest a greater % of marketing/advertising dollar online rather than into traditional media like print, direct mail and TV ... maybe wishful thinking but if these trends continue for all of April it would be a sign of early recovery IMHO.
That is spot on, traditional means of advertising such as classified ads, direct mail, tv commercials etc have got stupidly expensive these days. Also people are very ignorant towards ads because they've learnt to associate them with annoyance, spam and skeptiscism. Now though the power of the internet is hard to ignore. Corporations have lost thousands of employees due to small home business startups all conducted through the web, they are realising the true power now. This can only be good for us adsense users though!
