eCPM of Revmob drop a lot recently

PR nonsense from RevMob. There’s a raft of stats pertaining to mobile ads (and most of us are familiar with most of them). Bottom line - RevMob revenue is falling month on month when I review my per monthly earnings on the RevMob portal. In the past I’ve corresponded with them to try and obtain a resolution.

No more corresponding. As soon as I’ve ported my apps over to Google Play I’m going to yank RevMob from my iOS apps. Of course, RevMob + Android = epsilon eCPM so that’s a no go.

@dimd @ingemar

Just starting out on AdMob on Android. So far so good on the revenue. Not so good on the actual ad delivery what with reports on this forum about animated ads/FPS, delayed delivery of banner and inability to cancel an interstitial (NO MATTER WHAT!  :frowning: ) once it’s been requested. http://forums.coronalabs.com/topic/45130-coronalabs-please-look-prevent-admob-interstitial-to-fire-mid-game/?hl=%2Badmob+%2Binterstitial

@ingemar - Certainly happy with Vungle. Chartboost was a poor peformer for me. Oh well…

Revmob has changed their system so I wouldn’t expect to see good ecpm from them again. Basically instead of paying per install which is the purpose they were founded, they are now paying per click.  The campaigns being shown on my apps are paying $0.003 per click. Revmob says they have done the math and shows that x ammount of clicks = an install so they’re just gonna pay per click instead of per install. According to this their math must suggest that it takes over 450 clicks to generate one install. You can be your own judge off that information … . . . . … . Anyone know a good company that pays per install?

Wow.  Yeah, we’ve stopped using RevMob for two weeks now after earning near zero like what everyone’s been posting.  It’s horrible and sad.  Felt cheated somehow.

Would be interesting to hear from fellow Corona devs if they are getting decent eCPMs from RevMob. My eCPMs are rock-bottom and that’s with intertitials on iOS! RIP RevNob.

#35

I’m getting about $1.25 eCPM… it’s down from what I was getting a few months ago which was around $2-3. I was getting below $1 before Revmob plunged for a few days and now it’s been slightly better.

#36

@fatchicken007,

Thanks for posting. I’d settle for $1.25 right now! I’ll have to nuke them as soon as I get chance.

#37

@fatchicken007, Thanks for sharing. How recently have you updated your revmob.lua?

I noticed today that on my oldest apps, which i haven’t updated in over a year, have an average of $1-2eCPM, not great, but decent.

Now, my newest apps, with all recent revmob.lua are in the $0.0-0.20eCPM range.

Actually, my app that performs best in terms of impressions, has an incredibly amazing $0.00029eCPM ! Not a joke… Well, not a funny one at least.

The old crappy tapit performs even better than revmob now. We are just getting screwed, and they don’t care one bit.

#38

i’m using the 5.4.5 build.

#39

5.4.3 for my newest apps (very low eCPM).

@MAS1: what about you?

#40

@dimd

RevMob 5.2.1 and $0.21 eCPM today. It was nudging $2 a couple of months ago. I’m very unhappy with RevMob to put it mildly.

I suspect they are cherry picking their publishers based on installs. Who knows for sure? Good riddance I say! :stuck_out_tongue:

#41

I have the same sad situation. Now suffer a question - where better to go? We had a good Revmob fullscreen adds. Now the dilemma - what advertising system (with fullscreen ad unit) choose?

#42

@maxlankaster

AdMob?

#43

@MAS1 may be google admob InterstitialAd… while it is not yet decided. May be Vungle? For example, Vungle has a system of full-screen advertising? Or just the video? What profitable effect from Vungle?

#44

RevMob iOS eCPM close to zero over the weekend - anyone else?

#45

@MAS1 : Yep, same for me, 0.004$ over the weekend. That’s it, i’m done with Revmob. Even when it works, eCPM is lower than pretty much any other network, and regularly there are issues, weirdly enough mostly during weekends when i usually make the most… Used to be great, but it’s been downhill for too long.

@whynotgamehard: Vungle (video ads) has been a decent option. Works ok, pays quite well, doesn’t piss off too much the user.

#46

@dimd,

I am corresponding with RevMob as I type. Zero revenue for today and I have politely asked them what is broke? I have zero clicks! That cannot be.

I would appreciate you contacting them too. The more people who contact them the more they are likely to accept there is a reporting error … or worse! :frowning:

I too am very happy with Vungle. RevMob is failing fast is seems.

Best MAS1.

#47

@MAS1 : i just tried from their website and their form crashed… =)

Do you have an email for them?

i had for today:

Total 829 3 88.00% 0.36% $0.01704 $0.01413

I had usually a CTR of 13-15%. Today, 0.36%.

Ouch.

Cheers,

d.

@dimd

Thanks for contacting RevMob: Antonio Viggiano <support@revmob.com> Their form crashed for me too.

My clicks are zero and that just can’t be right?!  :angry:

Are those iOS or Android stats? Mine are iOS. Also, my CTR is much the same as yours.

Cheers - MAS1

I contacted them on Sunday. Their sdk is broken. It’s not registering the RevMob start session which means ads aren’t being displayed. They said they are working on it.
