Hi there,
It looks like advertisers are simply not bidding on ad space on your site.
If I visit your site I see only in-house ads – ads we place on your site when advertisers aren’t bidding on ad slots so the ad spaces on your site at least won’t be empty. Those ads don’t bring in any revenue.
It also appears the majority of traffic on your site comes from India. Fewer advertisers tend to bid on ad space for traffic from non-US and non-EU sources, and those that do bid tend to bid much less on that type of traffic.
Keep working on adding high-quality content to your site, and find a way to start attracting visitors from other parts of the world as well, and advertisers should start bidding on ad space on your site more consistently over time.

The same problem happened with me. My revenues decreased astronomically in the last 2 months, even after serving more ads than the previous month. It’s even more (negatively) impressive If I compare with my earnings in June, July or August.
WordAds improved our earnings during the last year (specially since february), but strangely enough it started to decrease them since september. I would like to know why it happened. -
Hi! I have about 1 million impressions every month and I can say I will STOP ussing WordAds. The thing about this EVIL COMPANY is that they do not care at all about publishers. They are dropping the earnings every year in September-October. If you ask them why they will say -FLUCTUATIONS. REALLY? NO TRANSPARANCY from this company.
EXEMPLE
I am ussing this company since may 2017
*may 2017 -56054 impressions 1.36$ CPM =76$ earnings.
*august 2017 -35169 impressions 2.31$ CPM =81$ earnings.
THIS was good right? In that period my views were lower than now.
*september 2017 -683947 impressions AND only 0.15$ CPM (a very big CPM drop) =105$ earnings
since then the CPM droped …
*SEPTEMBER 2018 -1 million+ impressions and ONLY 0.05$ CPM =56$.
AND now THE SHOCK for me!!!
* OCTOBER 2018 -1 million + impressions AND ONLY 0.01$ CPM =15$.
A drop from 100$ monthly to 50$ and now to 10-20$ with only 0.01$ CPM! They are selling for FREE the ad space. Since today I really do not know how much do I really earn? WHAT IS THE percentage i get? 1%, 10%? HOW MUCH! It is very low anyway. I AM VERY DISSAPIONTED cuz this company do not value the work we are doing here on our blogs! I talked with many bloggers! They all are getting drops by 50-90% in earnings and the company say that is just FLUCTUATIONS or it is our fault! PLEASE bloggers lets protest SOMEHOW. Let all TURN OFF WordAds for a week at least until they will come with explanations.
*Anyway I know the CPM since a few days ago.(they updated on my blog the cpm for every month)*
And in november and december 2018 the everyday CPM is only 0,01$. THIS IS VERY LOW. I am from Europe and here the CPM and the earnings DROPPED a lot! -
There is no fixed CPM for WordAds. WordAds earnings can fluctuate depending on a variety of factors:
- The amount of traffic your site gets.
- Advertisers’ budgets for the month (they tend to spend more around holidays and higher sales periods).
- Where the majority of the traffic is coming from. (North American ad placements currently pay out at a much greater level than ads from other regions.)
- How many visitors are using ad blockers.
The content of your posts and pages can also effect which advertisers want to advertise and how much they will pay to advertise on your site, as well as the language.
As the majority of traffic to your site comes from Europe the GDPR is also a factor – if someone does not opt in to allow advertising tracking cookies to be placed in their browser, we cannot show them targeted advertising which pays more. There has been a general decline in ad earnings for EU traffic across the online ad industry since GDPR came into effect, not just in WordAds. That’s not something we have any control over – that is simply people exercising their right under EU law to not have their online activity tracked.
