  For the last year or so, the monthly views on my eFoodAlert blog site (eFoodAlert.wordpress.com) have averaged some 4000-5000. I have been averaging $20 – $30/month from this site. My views for February 2019 and March 2019 were higher than average (~7000 and ~14,000 respectively), yet my ads served have dropped precipitously. What is happening to my Word Ads?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  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. Advertisers generally prefer to place ads on family-friendly content.
