You have a CPM of $6. Not very inspiring, but not uncommon.</p> <p>The AdSense stats display the effective CPM you earn.</p> <p>Remember, AdSense doesn't have to replace your affiliate commissions. You can earn affiliate commissions AND AdSense commissions from the same page.</p> <p>If you have a very efficient site with a high conversion rate, AdSense may not be right for you - or perhaps it would be suitable for SOME pages, but not others. Remember, the more choices you give people, the more likely you are to confuse them.</p> <p>However, if you're creating a large information site, or if you have a site that does not have a brilliant conversion rate, AdSense could prove to be a very profitable addition to your site.</p> (Strictly speaking, CPM means COST per 1,000 impressions, but the calculation works OK whether you're spending money or earning it.)<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8018373340196896504-3611132191244386449?l=affiliatescommission.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Affiliate Bloggerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17603533530634631853noreply@blogger.com0
