All things relevant are on the table.
Caveat. Do not ever state specific numbers. TOS issues.
Unless something really crashes and burns, I intend to post everyday.
This has to do with the Maven vs AdSense on the the HP/Maven platform only. With different people, different avenues are best. My problem is the constant fluctuation of best results. So I figure I might as well have some fun with it and gain some information; no reason why others can't gain information as well.
I'll post my opinions regarding here results.
I'll post my opinions regarding there results.
Please volunteer any opinions of a particular day's results regarding earnings, additional information also appreciated. Patterns reveal knowledge.
@HP Please be more timely on your switch-overs. In fact, real-time would be very helpful to us.
Rants against particular disasters and euphoric announcements about particular bonanzas are encouraged.
At any rate, this is 4/30/2019, so nothing to report.
Relevant messing around is allowed here. The objective is fun and knowledge.
{As a side note: the number of typos for me is now really significant. It's getting to the point where I don't realize all. No big deal, just please understand.}
CPM extremely unimpressive for 4/29, 4/30 data unavailable to me.
RPM extremely unimpressive for 4/30.
In other words, both the HP Ad Program and straight AdSense aren't making it. For some strange reason, my optimism/intuition says May is supposed to be a banner month. We shall see. Reports from others will be appreciated. The objective is to figure out the best program that will serve you.
Both traffic and earnings unimpressive for me for May 1 & 2.
There are some reporting issues, but May 1 looks like the HP Program was the best bet and May 2 was a tie.
When I ran this experiment 2 years ago, AdSense won hands down. This year I'm beginning to suspect that I have no idea what to expect. Used to be the past helped predict the future; I'm not so sure of that anymore.
At any rate, I hope people will post here if anything out of the ordinary should happen with the HP Ad Program CPM. Don't post numbers, just opinions on how things are going. I'll keep posting my opinions as to how I think AdSense is doing. Both traffic and earning trend information are important. Just remember to not post any specific numbers.
May 3. AdSense won.
So we now have one each. HP program won one day. AdSense won one day. And they tied one day.
Approximations of course. And adding my website data would give entirely different results of course.
May 4. Another tie. AdSense did better than I thought it would for a Saturday.
Well, I'm not seeing much interest in this thread as to AdSense versus HP Ads results. And I've not seen any other forum complaints or euphoria concerning the HP Ads CPM. I'll probably pull the plug on this critter in a few more days. Got other fish to fry.
The last update on HP Ads was May the 1st. Also, yeah, HP Ads are better for many of us and those people already know. Most have tested.
For some unknown reason, I seem to be in a gambling mood recently.
May 5. AdSense fell flat on its face. HP Ads clear winner. Not unexpected for a Sunday. For me, the weekdays tell the tale.
I honestly never check my AdSense, I get about 1 payout from there each year. My HP earnings are fine, considering traffic and actually this past weekend was pretty solid considering my weekends are never great. I'm happy.
If my AdSense doesn't turn around and I see more posts like yours, I'm running back to the HP Ad Program at the end of the week.
I think it's already the end of the week then
May 6. AdSense once again failed to dazzle. I expected much better for a Monday. HP Ads has another clear win. The results of this experiment sure are different from the last time I did this. The past is indeed no longer a predictor of the future around here.
May 7. Abandoning thread due to general lack of interest.

Due to positive feedback regarding the HubPages ad program and myself being relatively new here (around 3 weeks), I decided to have the HP ads enabled from my very first hub. The cents have been steadily accumulating since the first few days, but I'm beginning to question if I've made a poor...

The HubPages ads pay more than I'm making on Google AdSense. Is there a way for me to turn off AdSense so I can give all my impressions to the HubPages ad program?ThanksJacob

For those of you thinking of starting your own blog, here's a vitally important piece of information from Adsense:http://adsense.blogspot.com.au/2012/11/ … -host.htmlThe way I read it is:If you used an account on Blogger or a rev-sharing site (like HubPages, Weebly, Wizzley) to get approved...
