Very Low RPM Compared to Adsense

Nuel Efe

I moved to Journey a week ago and RPM has been at $0.68, compared to Adsense where i was getting closer to $10-$11 RPMs, i thought this was because of ramp up period but it's so bad, like extremely bad. with 80% of traffic from US/UK/Europe, makes zero sense to me.



Am i doing something wrong?

    I've been with Journey about two weeks and am seeing something similar. My earnings are about half of Adsense, but my RPM is much lower. Part of this is because I've had a lot of bot traffic over the last two weeks as well, which I think Adsense filters out. I would pay more attention to earnings at this point in case you also have bot traffic.

    Fortunately, the last two days my earnings have increased, but we'll see if it lasts. It's still not the same as Adsense but it's getting closer, and I like the fact that my site doesn't have to be overrun with ads about gold coins and belly far. The experience is much better, but time will tell if earnings will exceed.
