    eCPM: Effective Cost Per Mille or eCPM (as it is often initialized to) is a phrase often used in online advertising and online marketing circles. It means the cost of every 1,000 ad impressions shown.

    That's $0.65 not .65% - it means you earn 65 cents per 1000 page impressions. That might be typical for a forum but on a regular content site, depending on topic & layout, you can get $4-$10 per 1000.

    yes, ECPM $0.65 is quite low for a content site, it might be a mix of bad CTR and poor paying topic.

    The M in CPM refers to the Roman letter M for 1 thousand. It gets confusing as M is increasing used for a million.

    MMIX = 2009

    I always thought it was Estimated Cost Per Thousand, as in this is what you are estimated to make per thousand visitors based on past earnings.
