Hi I'd like to first off say that this forum is cool as hell and I plan on staying. I checked out the stats for one of my websites. My click rate (somewhere between 5-10) is about half of my page impressions. The thing that puzzles me is the eCPM is somewhere between 40-45 dollars, and my total earngings is less than 75 cents. Question is, for stats that I listed, why did I only earn so little? The numbers just dont seem right since I have such a high CTR. If I posted anything in violation of TOS, let me know, I will edit.
You posted a lot in violation, quick, edit it!! You posted everything!!! You can post earnings, and maybe Page impressinons! Remember, AdSense Advisor is here!!! Odds are, some one clicked your ads seven times. Hince the massive CTR and cCPM. Seven clicks = about 10 cents a click which isn't very bad. You only earned $0.68 because you have hardly any clicks! Yes, you got a high CTR, but your page impressions are just about nothing, there for you got a high CTR. If you had one more click, it would of been 50% CTR!
Cool, thanks for the heads up. I think I shouldu go buy myself some traffic to see what happens. By the way things are going, if I should maintain that rate but at a multiplied scale, I can reap a pretty descent amount of money. Thanks again!
I wouldn't suggest buying traffic. Rather build on increasing your traffic normally. Buying traffic, depending on how it is done, could very well be in violation of the ToS if people just start clicking on ads willy nilly. That is... if it's actual people that are visiting, which most times it's not...
