Views don't always = impressions. Most of us know this. For some reason this year my impressions on hp is coming close to the views number. I'm running around 20% less traffic than last year right now, but am making like 50% more money. cpm fluctuates but I'm seeing that last year (say 4k views one day meant like 2.2k impressions) now it's like 4k views equals almost 4k impressions!) Anyone else experiencing this?

My views, impressions and CPM took a nose dive today. My stats were doing well, slowly increasing, with some articles trending. However, my stats across the board dived after the latest TAG/HP announcement of moving the rest of the network sites to TAG. I am so bummed. Is anyone else experiencing...

I am sure everybody will admit the number of views a hub produces does not count with the number of revenue it brings. Revenue depends upon the number of clicks made on the ads. Now hubbers won't click on the links and I believe maximum of the views come from hubbers. So I want to know What percent...

I recently visited a hub which left me perplexed. The hubber made a table of contents which were all links back to the same page. So in essence, the page was just reloading itself. Normally when I see a hyperlink it takes me to another page or opens another page in a new window. This is usually a...
