Factors Related Impressions, Ad RPM and eCPM
Impressions are a normal behavior across website or webpages which relate to advertisements to make earning be displaying ads on requested pages. Ad RPM is auto calculated and reported to publisher account dashboard, eCPM is effective cost per thousand impressions which also relates to Adsense earning. Let's learn them deeply with explanation before diving deep the main article.What is Impression?
In general Impression can be expressed to be an specific item is viewed by a user on a website. This can be body content, a video, images, ad unit or an advertisement, specially this means the focus of a visitor after landing on a webpage. At the same time visitors have freedom to scroll up/down the page, take any action or leave page immediately without any engagement. Impressions are calculated by Google Analytics tracking code and Adsense ad tracking code, and you can see reports on both GA and Adsense account dashboard.What is Ad Impression?
Ad Impression is a bit different term than normal Impression occurs across a webpage. Ad Impression is auto generated and reported whenever an individual ad is requested and displayed on a webpage. Different ad formats generate different ad impression suppose, each time wide skyscraper ad unit displays on your site you see two ad impressions.What is Ad RPM? - Calculate eCPM
Ad RPM is simply meaning the ratio between Estimated earnings and total ad impression are multiplied by 1000. In calculation we see thatAd RPM = (Estimated earnings / Ad impressions) * 1000
To increase and decrease Adsense earnings Ad RPM plays great role indeed, since the advertising bit types are different and many advertisers prefer cost-per-thousand impressions (CPM) rather than CPC or CPE types so you can see a gradual rise up or drop in Adsense earnings which are mainly affected by Ad RPM
For example,
You have chosen two custom ad units "Large Rectangle" and "Leaderboard" respectively to place them on different spaces on your site to only test the eCPM rate. After 24 hours roundup you have checked your Adsense ad channels performances for these two ad units. You have seen the "Large Rectangle" channel receives 500 ad impressions and $3.26 in total earnings whereas the "Leaderboard" gets 200 ad impressions and $2.99 in total earnings by the same period.
To make them figure out you have calculated their Ad RPM rate by the formula above and seen the eCPM rate for "Large Rectangle" is $6.52 and "Leaderboard" is $14.95
So if your ads get 1000 impressions then "Large Rectangle" can generate $6.52 is less than "Leaderboard" who gives you $14.99 by the same impression rate. So this is more effective to place "Leaderboard" on other ad spaces instead the "Large Rectangle" on your site.
How to Improve Adsense RPM?
Use following strategies to increase Adsense Ad RPM effectively and increase your earning overnight.Reduce Bounce Rate
Bounce rate is related to search engine ranking factor which is calculated by measuring the % of visitors leave your site after visiting pages [may be a single page or multiple pages].

Suppose you have placed maximum three "Ad units" on every single page of your site and each time a visitor visit your page you get 3 impressions/visit. If that visitor visits three pages at the same then you get 9 impressions/visit.
But if that visitor leaves your site from that single page then you lose 6 impressions from one visit. Thus more than half of your visitors leave by single page visit then you get lower and lower impressions. If it continues day by day you get fewer and fewer earnings day by day.
