Could use some help with placement.

[rex_b]

I have tried everything to get my CTR up. It's just killing me. Ugh. Anybody have any suggestions on where I might benefit putting Adsense? I feel like I have it blended nicely and in good spots.

I'm just out of ideas.

Thanks for the help guys.

Site is in the sig.

they seem to me like they fit just fine.

I would be interested in hearing (and seeing) some ideas for a good CTR as well.

I just checked out your site for a few minutes... One recommendation would be to swap the Clicksor ads with Google ads... This way your Google ads are more integrated with the content. Right now you have them up top, which is okay for the homepage, but when browsing threads, you just lose sight of them immediately after scrolling down. I would run one 728x90 after the first or second post in the thread... then run another one near the bottom.

Hope this helps... Good luck!

how much is clicksor paying these days?

(btw - My3 is right, get Adsense in the middle, top placement in forums hardly get clicked).

Clicksor is just the Alternate Ad. Google is there just not displaying.

And not very much roadies.

I second ..erm 'third' that opinion, on the left below register..or integrated within your pages..anywhere apart from the top of page.

In addition to my3cents suggestion, try implementing the Adsense ads so that they are actually look like a replied post (meaning, have them posted by a bot named Sponsored Links).

People will actually think it's a post and look at it.

There are a few vBulletin mods to do this, the site in my sig has an entry on this.

This is my first day with doing this and so far the CTR is going up as of midday. Can't wait for the rest of the day to pan out.

i really dislike this trend with adding google ads after the first post in a thread. as i understand, usually you can "turn it off" by registering but even so.. this that just does not seem right. it just says "cash cow" to me.
