    I'm using both Adsense and Kontera on my site and I want know if eCPM can going down 50%, or could it depend from something else like Text-Link-Ads? My traffic is up and my clicks have been steady. :)

    yeah if you use adsense with other ads, your adsense click must be decreased, adsense is the most highest revenue in the world today, why you would put another lower ads?

    Some people say that earnings from kontera doesn't reduce their adsense.

    I've tried it twice, and both times every $1 earned from kontera cost me $10 in lost adsense. I don't think I'll try a third time (unless I ever get banned from adsense).

    Kontera is an effective means of making additional advertising revenue. In fact, a large percentage of kontera publishers use Adsense as well and the combination proves to be very worthwhile. Since the ads differ in format and location, they do not compete with eachother.
    I'm sorry to hear this wasn't the case with your site. The reduction in earnings can be due to a number of factors, some of which can be changed. I'd like to look into it if you send me more info.

    Thanks,

    Mika

    So your CTR stayed the same and only eCPM decreased? That's what happened when I added neverblue ads, at least I think that's what caused it.

    It is sometimes wise to use two different ad networks, just because they tend to be quite different. Lets say you have four Adsense Ads, if they are all very similar and the audience is not interested, then its your loss. However, if you have 3 Adsense Ads, and another one from say Kontera or Adbrite, or whatever, your Audience has more of a choice, and a wider selection.
