But let’s get to the point!
Before anything else, a quick reminder of what Autotag is!
The Autotag feature is a multi-purpose tag designed
by publishers FOR publishers to…
Want to know how our algorithm works? Okay!
- It adjusts according to your preferences. At the highest point, displaying more offers more frequently to your website visitors, thus generating maximum earnings. Or, on the flip side, prioritizing the user experience by showing fewer ads less regularly.
- You make the call on how heavily you want your onsite ads to be run and displayed – we, in turn, will comb your audience engagement data to perfect your onsite ad placement.
- Autotag now includes state-of-the-art Anti-Adblock technology – this single tag does the work of 3 features: bypassing blockers, maximizing UX, and integrating the best ads onto your site.
As might be expected, we could’ve gone more deeply into details and written every small thing about the process, but luckily – we already did that! Check out the first Autotag blog and learn more about the most remarkable monetization feature out there!
You waited long enough – we won’t torment you any longer! Case study time. 🥳
A Publisher using Adcash as his primary monetization solution was kind enough to share their data for this case study with us.
| Top geos | USA, The UK, Canada, Brazil, Germany |
| Ad Format | Switch from single Pop-Under to Autotag |
| Website Vertical |
Sports |
| Traffic Type |
The data provided in the case study is taken from the period January 2021 up until December 2021. Thus we will be able to observe changes for over a year.
Let’s start with some numbers! 🧐 Take a look at the…
CPM table and Earnings comparisons before and after Autotag
At the beginning of the period, the Publisher used one ad format – Pop-Under (from January 2021). The format continued to be used as the primary one until May of the same period when he made the switch to Autotag.
It quickly became apparent that the Autotag ad format helped maximize earnings. The increase was significant and very noticeable.
- Before the switch to the feature, the Publisher had an average of €680 daily earnings.
- After the switch, we can observe a jump to €1200 in daily earnings during some periods. Meaning the earnings increased by about 76%.
The targeting region chosen wasn’t a single one but multiple. The top-performing geos were as follows: the USA, the UK, Canada, Brazil, and Germany.
We didn’t say anything about CPM yet. Because here’s what happened to it! First things first, let’s make something clear – CPM (Cost Per Mille is visible on our platform for our Publishers as RPM (“Revenue Per Mille,” or revenue per thousand.)
Quick reminder – starting from January, the Publisher was only using a Pop-Under ad format and the switch to Autotag was made in May.
- January to April/Before Autotag – the average RPM is 2.3.
- May to December/After Autotag – an average RPM of 3.4, so the increase of CPM is around 47%.
