CTR also depends very much on the Niche. Another thing I have seen is that if your site gives the exact content that the person is looking for then the CTR tend to fall dramtically where as if you only provide only a hint to what the person is looking he will start looking around and click. What I mean, is, by testing and blending and placements, you can only increase the CTR by so much... On One site I rank One for the exact match. and I provide the exact Content. people stick to my page.. but CTR is very very low.. even with adsense block within the content
according to me you have applied ads very right way. everything looks ok except buy me a coffe..take it easy..
.. give me more ads. I just sit and wonder.. aren't people tired of seeing all those google ads on every other website?
I still think you are in a gray to black area regarding how you are effectively labeling the ads by putting them right under the article title...
Thanx mate for the feedback. Regarding that coffee stuff, its just optional...LOL.. i do love coffee though
No its not. And you shouldn't give dangerous advices. IF you want we can do a little game: you place ads bellow tittles, you tell me your url and i'll report you. Then we wait. Wanna play? Bet not.
You're not breaking TOS. Everything looks great! Your ad has the word *advertisement* above it so you're fine there. The layout looks good (for adsense) which is great. Good job man!
Oh boy... ^^ How can you say that when Adsense TOS clearly says the opposite? http://adsense.blogspot.com/2008/03/another-look-at-optimizations.html Jesus...
