According to my Google Analytics data I have 60k unique Views per day, 35k according to Ezoic and I am earning about 10 - 12 CENT a day. Whats wrong??
Low Earnings despite I have almost 50k Unique Views a day?

Hi there - hope you're well!
There's a few issues causing lower revenue:
- Approximately 93% of your visitors are accessing from Russia, where traffic is not monetized by Ezoic or Google.
- The traffic that is coming from other countries is extremely low quality, meaning there are super high bounce rates, and very low engagement rates. That is always going to result in lower revenue, users need to be staying on the page long enough to engage with the content and therefore ad impressions can count at a higher rate.
I just received a mail out of nowhere that my website has been banned from Ezoic, a few hours after I posted this thread. Additionally you are keeping over 230 $ of my revenue without any reasons. I will turn this over to my lawyers and to my Google Partners. Ezoic is a scam.

Hi there,
We simply have to abide by Googles policies and your traffic does not meet the requirements for monetization - https://www.google.com/ads/adtrafficquality/invalid-activity/
So it's Google guidelines trying to screw me over? It's Google policy that the forum post in which I complain about you simply withholding $230 of my earnings is suddenly set to "private"? So Google's guidelines are to now pay me less for the same traffic for which I earned significantly more a few months ago, even though the same traffic has actually increased? This is a complete scam and I will inform my contact at Google about it.
Oh and by the way: Strangely enough, Google AdSense itself has no problem monetizing my website. My AdSense account with the same website was neither blocked nor a withdrawal prevented.

Hi there - hope you're well!
We want to make it clear that the issue with the Premium agreement that caused the Adjustment to the payout you're referencing, is entirely unrelated to the site being denied today by the Platform Quality team.
You're still encouraged to reach out on the 26th via that thread to resolve the payment adjustment that's currently in place.
In reference to the site being denied today, the platform quality team is constantly and consistently reviewing both content and traffic metrics with sites that are approved. In this case, their team determined that the traffic quality did not meet our standards.
That review process happens entirely outside of the community and is constant and consistent, regardless of how active publishers are in support or the community - in this case, it was coincidental timing which we can understand would cause confusion. They are not related however, we need to be clear about that.
