What's The Highest eCPM You've Had?

A Contest just for a bit of fun...

Last 15th April I had one site with Ad Links which generated:

175% CTR with USD227.50 eCPM

I know it's going to be beaten but by how much?

Hi Optirex, I apologize for my ignorance but what does 175% CTR mean? Does this mean you actually got more clicks than impressions? In my case I'd be happy to just see 6% CTR once in a while.

Highest eCPM for me also exceeded $200, but it was really just an isolated statistically insignificant fluke that happened on a day with very few impressions but very high EPC's. Never saw anything like it ever again.

hello - thought I'd drop a huge figure here for those who will believe it or not -

the largest one I ever saw was just over $3000.

Unfortunately for the whole day it was - 1 impression - 1 click.

I recently had a nice EPM from a parking page (not Adsense), for a free .info domain. 4 impressions for the day, 2 clicks, $18.32 revenue: $4,580 EPM. :-)

For Adsense it's normally more like single digits (poor keywords). But the volume is much better, luckily.

I once had an eCPM of over x,#*$! on one of my pages. Didn't last but it sure was fun!

In one of my channels I have an ECPM (per adblock) of USD 665 this month. I just don't understand it. It's a page about a pretty common occupation with ads for not-too-expensive training courses and such. I'm thinking of ways to send zillions of visitors in that direction :-)

I have one channel presently at $3,900 - that 'm' word.

Well mine is around 1 - 3 % dipends on how well i send out newletters, the more people the more clicks..! :)

(Not that good) :/

Does this mean you actually got more clicks than impressions?

Yep, it's on a small site which only has a couple of Ad Links and that specific day it had 8 pages with 14 clicks.

Wow, some spectacular figures coming through. Who's going to break the $5,000?

[jenkers]

it'd be interesting to see if anyone has a CPM that high and sustained it (and if they could sticky me the theme of the site...)

[xxxxxpp]

mine was only 130.41
Whish I would get ecpm's that high

[bbcarter]

No one's mentioned it, but I assume you guys know that CPM is irrelevant until you're getting a certain number of hits?

I track the CPM of all my authors and various channels separately.

Want high CPM? Just increase CTR, and choose profitable keywords.

[2PACroatia]

sustained it? 5000 $?
if that was possible, i think we'd all be multi..million..billion..something..

one quick question, does google 'punish' you if you have adsense on lots of pages, that are not performing well..( lower ecpm?)

[jenkers]

I think most of these 'huge' value clicks and eCPMs are caused by newbie advertisers who get their advertising budgets burned in one day. The unfortunate side-effect is that some poor adsense publisher (me), thinks they have found the motherlode and spends ages working on on-topic pages only to subsequently receive the 5c clicks bid by people who actually know what they're doing.
