Ad Revenue Dropped Drastically

James77

Hey

My ad revenue has virtually went to zero over the past two days.

It looks like something is very wrong. Can we look into this?

Jan

James77 Clear any external caching you have. Likely due to this that ads aren't showing.

@Tucker_P_Ezoic Any idea whats going on with this

James77

Jan I had to disable breeze cache when setting up ezoic as you guys said it was triggering the consent pop up repeatedly. It's the only external cache I had on the site but don't have it anymore?

I have object cache flush on the site but cleared it and ads aren't appearing if I VPN outside of my network.

James77 Possibly a reporting delay, your revenue is now showing as expected. If you want to see higher returns I recommend enabling some of our higher paying ad types, as well as removing as many restrictions as possible.

tom010101 Hey - that was in response to James77 rather than yourself. I've responded to you here: https://community.ezoic.com/d/31177-no-more-money-whats-the-problem

On my page its the same. Thanks to Google Updates, my traffic has more than halved. However, Ezoic's revenue has dropped by about 80% and no longer makes sense to me. I've never had such low income. They are around 60% last year, when I only worked with Google Adsense and had similar traffic.

Imogen How is revenue showing as expected? The site went from $7 to $0.12 a day with no change in traffic. Theres clearly an issue here. I haven't changed any of my ad settings from when it was earning $7 per day.

Sorry, but the website is already "flooded" with ads and in some cases you can hardly see the content anymore. Should we place more ads now? Who else would want to read something on a site like this?

James77 Hey, as Jan pointed out, it looks like there was an issue with ads showing on the 19th. We saw a big drop in ad impressions on this date, however it does appear to be resolved. I've checked your ad impressions today vs last week and you look to be tracking correctly. Once your data updates today at around 8am PST, we should hopefully see your revenue for yesterday to be tracking as normal. Please reach out if not and we can take another look into what could be causing this. I've also navigated around the site at length and ads seem to be serving well.

Apologies - my message was a bit confusing - I meant to point out that if there was a tracking issue with your data / dashboard, it looks to be resolved.

James77

Imogen Can we figure out why no impressions were served and ensure it doesn't happen in the future?

Imogen

James77 Jan pointed out that it could be due to external caching - I've checked your headers using redirect path and I'm not seeing anything that could indicate that caching is intefering now, if you can reach out to us today once your data for yesterday has updated (which will be around 8am-12pm PST), we'll have a clearer idea.

One thing I would be aware of is your current integration method, Cloud integration is far superior to the Wordpress plugin. Using Cloud integration gives you access to more granular visitor data as well as our global CDN for improved site performance and caching. The Ezoic caching app is not compatible with the WP plugin and there are also a few incompatible caching plugins, which are: Swift Performance Cache, LiteSpeed Caching, WP Fastest Cache, Autoptimise Cache, WP-Optimize and SG Optimizer - are you using any of these?

Imogen é successo su molti siti che ho, che non hanno plugin uguali all'altro e temi simili, questa cosa della cache "potrebbe" essere è una spiegazione che fa acqua da tutte le parti. Se c'è una spiegazione sarebbe corretta che venga condivisa con chi per due giorni 19 e 20 si è visto sparire una fetta di guadagni.
