stubborn video ad that has been showing on my website

NBO

Hello I'm having this stubborn video ad that has been showing on my website ever since joining ezoic and there seems to be no way to get rid of it.It is on my home page immiadetely after the first post and inside my osts at the bottom. Now the video is displaying incorrectly making my site look untidy and ugly. To add on it I'm also getting invalid clicks that are really affecting my revenue. Thanks!

NBO If you want to disable video ads from your site you can do so here: https://pubdash.ezoic.com/ezoicads/adpositions/adtypes/floatingvideo

You can also disable Humix from here: https://pubdash.ezoic.com/humix/general-settings

Turning both those settings off will prevent video ads being inserted onto the site. In terms of invalid clicks, where are you seeing those? I just looked in Ezoic Analytics and your traffic looks fine

I'm getting the invalid clicks on adsense should I disable it entirely so that the ad focus is only on ezoic, and will it increase my ezoic revenue once adsense mediation is turned off ? Thanks!

NBO Hi,

Mediation contributed to a decent amount of your revenue the last few days, so we should try leave that turned on. Can you send a screenshot of the invalid click warning in AdSense so we can take a closer look at the details Google provided?

NBO

I haven't recieved any invalid traffic notification from google but the clicks I used to get are not counting.

NBO

And my revenue has declined 90% than it used to be.

There's a screenshot example of it.

NBO Hi, you would expect revenue, clicks and impressions to drop in AdSense. You're sending 100% of your traffic to Ezoic, so this means the only AdSense revenue, clicks and impressions you get are through mediation - hopefully this makes sense.

NBO

What are you recommendations since even the mediation amount I'm making is just on paper but what ezoic pays me is much lower than what the Analytics show. I'm just out of options right now

Ethan

NBO Are you able to clarify what you mean by ezoic pays me is much lower than what the Analytics show?

One issue preventing you from earning high levels of revenue is that you focused on a niche that is going to attract visitors from countries with low paying ads. If you wanted to earn higher revenue you would want to produce content in a niche that's likely to bring in visitors from countries with higher paying ads, such as the US - I hope that helps.

NBO

YES
This is what the analytics show I have made so far but the amount I've recieved is way much lesser than that by far even if I sum up the one adsesnse has made its nowhere near.

Ethan

NBO Got it. As I mentioned, your revenue is always going to be held back by the location of your traffic. Your best bet now, since your ad setup with Ezoic is fully set up, is to utilise some of Ezoic's AI tools: Flickify and Niche IQ, to further enhance your site growth. This will help boost traffic and in turn revenue 🙂

Thanks Ethan!
