I have been running profitable campaigns on Outbrain for the last 7-8 months, but over the last couple weeks, I have experienced a sudden decline in impressions even though my CTR has stayed more or less the same (even after increasing my bids by up to 50%).

Has anyone noticed anything similar happening in the last couple weeks? I know Outbrain's algorithm can be finicky, but I am seeing similar declines across all campaigns.

As an aside, are there other native networks that people like here? I sell a language learning product for expats, and my campaigns do best on the big international news sites (CNN, FoxNews, MSN News, BBC News, the Guardian, etc.) on Desktop (no mobile). I run ads targeted mostly outside the U.S.

I've been on Taboola for few months, but the traffic quality/ROI has been poor. Too many many clicks were coming from gaming/teen/etc. sites that were totally outside of my target market. Any other networks that cater to major new sites?
