I have a Hindi blog on education niche, which has 300k monthly visitor. According to google analytics, user’s average engagement time is 3 minute and 25 seconds.
Initially I didn’t mind about AdSense 一 I was considering it as just a step that involves adding some ad code on the website 一 although later I realized that it is an skill that is required to become successful in blogging. When I tried to go deep, I found no solution for my problems 一 neither from google nor from any publisher/creator.
Some Question I tried searching for, was:
- Can I use sticky fixed ad at the bottom without violating AdSense policy? No straight answer found, yet I risked and implemented very carefully which increased my RPM up to 0.40$ (No policy violation till now)
- Turned on AdSense auto optimize experiment, my rpm went down but there was no visible sign that google is actually running experiment on my behalf.
- When I turned off auto optimize my rpm remained decreased. (from 0.35$ to 0.12$)
- I placed some manual ad units 一 4 actually 一 which were generating 0.04$ collectively, each 0.01$ and Interestingly the same ad, When shown through auto ad was generating rpm of 0.12$.
- If we talk about viewability, we know that auto ads (like: anchor and vignette) has viewability of +90%. My fixed unit which has the same viewability score but rpm is not more than 0.05$.
There are more issues I can talk about but let’s not drag it out. I need some guidance but found no credible person who has expertise and are available to discuss. I watched some creator’s videos on YouTube (How to increase Hindi blog RPM?), they were providing very basic and even wrong information.
My motivation to start the blog was 一 traffic, and Satish k videos who claimed on a video that rpm is usually around 1$, earlier it used to be 2-3$, but at the time of video shooting rpm was low. They also showed their AdSense dashboard. If they are getting such RPM than I must be making some mistakes.
Now I have two options:-
- First, it should be assumed that the RPM in Hindi blog remains the same (around 0.10$ - 0.40$).
- Or, it can be increased up to or more than 1$.
So my question is, “HOW MUCH RPM ARE YOU GETTING IN YOUR HINDI BLOG?”
