ECPM is 'effective cost per mille' which is the amount an advertiser (Google in our case) pays us per one thousand visitors who see its advertisements.
ECPM rate is controlled by Google and it keeps fluctuating, There is not much one can do to change the ECPM rate. Avoiding bot traffic and getting healthy traffic is the most important thing to get the maximum ECPM rates.
ECPM is affected by the kind of traffic and their demography. It is also affected by the current advertising situation of the world. (Ex - ECPM rates are highest during the Christmas holiday season.)
The average ECPM rate is between:
$6 - $15 for the US and
$3 - $12 for European region.
