CPM

I have a site that gets a lot of visitors per day but the main function of the site uses Ajax to show content.

I am approved and have been running multiple CPM networks on it for months but I just feel like I'm throwing away potentialy thousands of impressions per day since I could make the page change every time the user presses a button to see the content.

On the other hand he AJAX makes my site cool and unique.

What do you think?

I would trash the AJAX.

Tell the adcode area to refresh when the page changes?

Thanks for the feedback. Considering both options.

However, I'm not sure the CPM networks will allow any type of refreshing for any reason if I'm not mistaken.

Well it depends on your type of site, any chance on getting a URL?

I mean if your site is a AJAX based chat client, then that is a silly thing to do trashing the AJAX. But if it is just say a form that you sign up with. Just trash the AJAX

Could be his riddle site. When you click to show an answer to a riddle the link is "<a href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="Answer(960); return false;">" and of course the answer shows without a page view.

On that particular site I think your CPM would explode if you changed it.

Here's what I would do. "Break" the Ajax for 3-4 days, and see what happens. By break I mean, change it. If anyone asks you, it's "temporarily not working". Does your traffic drop? Did your earnings increase?

It'd be worth the test before you make any major changes, and of course the advantage is that if your traffic plummets, you can just "fix" the site.

I would look at embedding ads in the refreshed html. Barring that, I would try forcing a reload of the whole thing every few times, just to "legitimately" reload the page.
