Introduction

Are you puzzled by the continued earnings in your AdSense account despite using Ezoic for your ad management? This article will help you understand the reasons behind this phenomenon and provide guidance on how to address it. We will explore various factors such as traffic settings, unwrapped ads, and mediation revenue that could be contributing to the AdSense earnings. By the end of this guide, you'll have clear insights into these issues and actionable steps to optimize your ad revenue effectively.

Common Symptoms

Users may notice a few indicators that suggest they are still earning revenue in their AdSense account despite using Ezoic. These symptoms include:

  1. Revenue Discrepancies: Observing revenue in the AdSense account while expecting all ad revenue to come from Ezoic.
  2. Unwrapped Ads: Seeing None Ezoic ads on the site along with reveune in Adsense.
  3. Mediation Revenue: Seeing revenue attributed to AdSense due to the Mediation app being set up, which allows AdSense to compete for ads even when traffic is directed through Ezoic.

Troubleshooting

  1. Verify Traffic Settings
    • Log in to your Ezoic dashboard and navigate to EzoicAds > Optimization Goals.
    • Ensure the site traffic allocation for Ezoic is set to 100% for all devices (desktop, tablet, mobile).
    • If any device is set to a lower percentage, update the settings to 100%. This prevents traffic from being sent to the old version of your site that may still contain AdSense ads.
  2. Check for Unwrapped Ads
    • Ensure there is no unmodified AdSense code on your site. This unmodified code is referred to as ‘unwrapped ads’.
    • If unwrapped ads are found, either delete the AdSense code or wrap it with Ezoic code.
    • Unwrapped ads can negatively impact your Ezoic ad revenue by occupying valuable ad space and increasing ad density, which may lead to fewer Ezoic ads being displayed.
  3. Check Mediation
    • If you followed the steps to link your AdSense account and set up the Mediation app for it, then you could be earning Mediation revenue via AdSense.
    • Mediation is a process that allows AdSense to compete for ads (even when your traffic is set to 100% Ezoic).
    • The revenue that you earn via Mediation will still be displayed in your Ezoic dashboard but the payments will be made through AdSense.
    • Since Adsense is paying out your Mediation revenue, they will also report it in your AdSense account.

If these steps do not resolve your issue, additional support may be required.
