How much should I expect from 1,000+ impressions?

    Today was a big day for my ads! Today, I got 1,018 impressions on my ads with media.net, the best I've ever gotten in my entire career of running a website. It's still pending to be processed, as it's not official until midnight.

    I can't wait, though! I want to hear your thoughts and also have a couple of questions:

    On November 13th, I got 52 impressions, giving me a revenue of $1.57 for the day, and an RPM of $30.20

    Now I researched and RPM means pay-per-thousand views, correct? So does that mean, by me getting 1,018 impressions, that I just earned over $30? If so, awesome!

    Screenshot attached.

    Also, I heard Media.net is a pay-per-view site, but do they have any lean-way if people click on your ads? I know for a fact at least 1 person has clicked on my ads, does that effect the pay rate at all, or is it strictly pay-per-view?

    Around $15-25.

    You get such a huge RPM ? Do you click on your own ads ha ? If so don't do that or else your account will be suspended because Media.net doesn't tolerate low quality traffic that reduces the interest in advertisers.

    I've never clicked on my own ads. Not even once.

    I estimated the earnings according to your RPM. I think you didn't get many clicks from that impressions so your RPM was low, isn't it ?

    I think it was a temporary traffic, most probably from a spammy resource. 10 times sudden increase in pageviews can not be a genuine increase.
    BTW, I would change the ad placements. All of your ads are below the fold. Read this if you don't know: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Above_the_fold
