CTR on pornhub 2 times lower than usual?

I usually get 0.60% CTR on my ads, in the last 2 days it is average 0.30% anyone noticed the same thing with their banners?

Yeah I noticed exactly the same thing and I though it was something on my end

STM adult scraper released this week, it is possible that your ads have been copy pasted 50x

Copying of ads shouldn't really decrease the CTR, should it?

When this happens 99% of cases is Pornhub changing themes in specific countries that take away focus from ads.

I'm not sure about your own results, but whenever I've duplicated my ads on a traffic source beyond a certain point, the CTR begins to drop across the board - same thing typically happens when people copy paste my banners on the same placements. I don't really think this is the cause of what is happening here tho, bbrock is probably on point with his answer

a year ago i didn't use impression caps at all, had multiple cloned campeigns running at the same time and CTR was almost constant all the time. I don't know what happened to pornhub.

if someone steals your banner and outbids you for the same placement, chances are if a user is going to click on your banner it will be on the first impression

Wednesday and Thursday are two of the slowest days around for the dating niche so you shouldn't judge it as the norm.

The normal, average day is probably Monday.

The last couple of days my CTR has been cut but my volume has tripled. No bid changing at all.
