So you gets the less pageviews even your blog had the maximum traffic. So its recommended to display All the Ads in your Worst Niche to Maximize Pageviews and Revenues.

I had experience on the Same. Once i blocked all the Low quality ads on my blog then i got the notification from the Google to Unblock all the Ads that i have blocked such that they can serve better ads related to contents of the posts and niche. I then unblocked all the Ads and realized that it gave me more pageviews. So i think my blog was not serving the ads at the end of the day when Advertisers budget limit reached.

One more thing i learnt is That, We are Blocking the Ads categories Even they are not displaying in our Blog and far distinct from the Niche type. Those ads are served only when nothing is to be served by Adsense. So its better to allow all ads such that we can’t run out of ads and can maximize the revenue.
