I think this is a useful discussion because many publishers experience sudden changes in advertising revenue from time to time. Having a comparison between multiple networks, along with traffic type and audience location, would probably help everyone in the community.
 
Whatever network you decide to test next, I'd recommend tracking the results carefully over a couple of weeks instead of focusing on daily earnings. Advertising performance can vary from one day to another, so looking at averages often provides a much clearer picture.
 
Thanks for sharing the details. A sudden drop in rates can happen due to seasonal advertiser demand, changes in traffic quality, or shifts in the ad network's inventory. Before switching completely, I'd compare a couple of alternative networks over a week or two using the same traffic. It would also be useful to compare metrics like RPM, fill rate, and user engagement rather than looking only at total earnings. Hopefully, other members working with Indian traffic can share what they've observed recently.
 
A drop in rates doesn't always mean there's something wrong with your setup. Ad rates can fluctuate based on advertiser demand, seasonality, and changes in bidding competition. Before moving away from your current network completely, it might be worth testing one or two alternatives on a portion of your traffic for a couple of weeks and comparing metrics like RPM, fill rate, and user engagement.
 
Since your audience is entirely Indian, I'd also pay attention to how well a network performs specifically with Indian traffic rather than looking only at global reviews. Sometimes a network that's excellent for Tier 1 countries performs poorly in India, while another one is optimized for local advertisers.
 
Also, if your traffic has remained stable at around 8K unique visitors per day, your site has enough volume to run meaningful comparisons. Hopefully, members here who work with similar Indian traffic can recommend networks they've found effective. It would be interesting to hear what others are using these days.
