Google AdSense, Highest Paying Country in 2015

This is the fifth edition of the statistic on Highest Paying Country for Google AdSense Publisher. This post cover from the period of 1st January 2015 to 31st December 2015.

As before, I remove the country that I received less than 3,000 visitors for the same duration to ensure the data are more re presentable.

Basically, the countries are ranked based on Revenue per Thousand (“RPM”) impression with the highest RPM at the first position while the lowest RPM at the last position. This data is real data from my websites. Your data may be slightly different base on your website niche.

In 2015, Australia, New Zealand and United States become the top 3 position.

I hope these data will be useful, to increase your AdSense earnings by focusing on the highest paying countries.

Remove AdSense in 404 Not Found Page in phpMyDirectory

Recently, I warned by Google AdSense team because AdSense displayed on 404 Not Found Page in phpMyDirectory website which they don’t allow. In their email, it clearly stated that AdSense must not be displayed on this page as shown below.

Violation explanation

In order to ensure a high quality user experience and appropriately targeted ads, Google ads may only be placed on original, information-rich content that’s easy for users to navigate.

Ads should not be the main focus of the page and/or be more prominent than the content itself. This may include pages that a user visits before potentially exiting a domain (i.e., “exit pages” or “thank you” pages), 404 error pages, and some log-in pages. As our ads are contextually targeted, image galleries with little text are also not the best place for our ads.

In order to comply, add the AdSense code as shown below where you want to insert the ads.

<?php if(http_response_code() != 404) { ?>
// AdSense Code
<?php } ?>
