Hello;

I have very poor CTR;
my CTR is: 0.26% !!!!!:confused:

I have placed Google Ads in every place;
above the topic (thread) below it;
and on the top of every page ...

Please review it and give an advice:

forums are mostly having low ctr.

i think placing a bit more ads will help you to earn more

Hello;
What do you mean placing more ads!

I am placing 3 ads units per page...

I want more opinions?

Thanks...

Test this: make the title links blue (and I mean 0000ff, not some pastel shade), keep the ad text black and make the ad url a light grey (maybe #999999). See if that raises the response.

I got some great help in my thread here - http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=416230

You may be able to apply some of the techniques because the changes are definately working for me.

Yes, forums really do have a low CTR. IMO, the Ads are well placed, some suggestions though:

1) Change the text & url color of the ads in topics to the grey one used in topic-text.

2) Add AdSense for Search to your site, maybe at the bottom?

.. and many more..
