My CPM was really low yesterday. When this happened on January 14th and people complained on the Forum, the CPM miraculously was changed and almost doubled! Does anyone know what is going on here?
I would be very surprised if complaints turned in to increased earnings but it's worth a try!
Due to the significant traffic drop caused through my better hubs selection of EC, I was certain it had to do with that but I think you are right.
I'm so sorry about your EC Hubs. (I opted out.) But, should the traffic affect the CPM? The traffic would affect the overall income, but why would the CPM be affected if traffic is relatively the same for the same Hubs?
In the past two days my CPMs were also quite a bit lower than before.
It probably has its ups and downs like mostly everything else.
Just ups and downs. They are good one day, evil the next, must be due to holidays still. That, and the strange weather everywhere.
I suppose it could still be he holidays. After all, we are still just getting use to the New Year.
The country keeps getting hit with Arctic Blasts. That accounts for the 'strange weather'.

This month my CPM for the HP Ad Program is super low. It's been under $1.50 every day so far. And last month I had a lot of days where it was under $2. Wondering why that is and if it's just happening to me or if others are experiencing this as well.

This is very, very, unfortunate, but it seems I have been penalized by a Google Alg or something. I have OVER 100 HUBS that have BLUE ARROWS. My traffic went down earlier this year a bit, but stayed consistent for several months. Now it has dropped by 50%. Not sure if this occurred today or...

All of a sudden, since yesterday, my traffic has been cut almost 50%. Has anyone else experienced this? I doubt I will even make payment this month - time for my moral to fall January is a bad month for most I hear, but my traffic was fine earlier in the month, and consistent.

Just looked at my hub stats and there are lots of red arroes, traffic is 300 more than yesterday. About 200 above normal. Things are looking up.

I just noticed a blue arrow next to a hub I published this week. It's in the list of my hubs under my account page. What does it mean? It isn't the hub with the most views, unless it's a hub with the most views in the shortest amount of time, I do not know.
