do google views have a higher CPM, because people say google views are better, is that why?
At low traffic levels, hpads has the best CPM. At medium to high traffic levels, Google has the best CPM. This is strictly just my own personal experience.
thanks .. sorry I should have been clearer, i meant views that come from google on all ads, not google adsense ads, do you know about that?
Seearch engine traffic should have higher CPM I guess. On days when I get near 0 hub page views my CPM is almost a dollar and a half higher.
Basically you're asking:
"Are people who visit my pages from Google or other search engines more likely to click an advert or earn me money that people who visit from Hubpages or Social Media/Bookmarking/Linking sites."
The simple answer is yes.
However it obviously varies between Adsense and HP ads.
In general, internal (Hubpages visitors) and social bookmarking (reddit, stumbleupon etc) are short bursts of low quality (not likely to click or buy) traffic.
Visitors from Google and other search engines are more likely to be interested in the topic of the hub, and therefore the topic of the adverts (if they're closely related enough.)
The country plays a role too - US traffic generally pays better than Indian traffic for instance.
Also Hubbers are generally not allowed to click on ads, so you will get more clicks from outside traffic.

I am experiencing an overall average off 66 percent less page views per day, for seven days versus a week previous and for the past two months. Such a huge drop in page views makes me think that Google has tuned up something again. I do know that I don't have the time and energy to keep...

The scoring system of habpages is either fundamentally flawed or purposely biased in favor of long hubs. You said it hubpages team: the more, the merrier, but I don�t think that this is in your interest, or the interest of hubbers and other people using the website. To make my case, I used...

Since I migrated here from Squidoo two months ago, I've seen a steady stream of threads in this forum, complaining about lost page views. There are a lot of theories about why it's happening, and how much it's happening, and what can be done to get into Google's good graces.Google is not my #1...

Since last week, my traffic (page views) has been decreasing. Hope not because of someone stealing my hubs as is happening so damned frequent recently. I will be at a lost if I am also a victim as I am not IT savvy. All those reports and DMCA notices to be made. So far lucky...

As per the new changes HubPages has made, I was required to make a few changes to the amount of Amazon products I was showing. I lowered the amount of products to lower than an average of 1 per 50 words on the hubs that HubPages has penalized. Furthermore, on hubs that weren't penalized I got rid...

people are saying they have had a dramatic loss in traffic, what I am wondering is how much traffic you normally receive on average per hub. just divide the amount of hubs you have with the hits received and let me know. Im just wondering whether its better to use a blog to do articles rather than...
