    As long as you are not doing anything wrong, it should be fine. Don't foucs too much on what your CTR is (it's not even in your control unless you spam).

    safe if not click fraud

    If you got 2% CTR, but all Click Fraud <<--- Not Safe

    But, you got 25% CTR, But all is true, real human, real visitor.. I can say, yes, safe

    7% is save and no any proof saying that the CTR high will harm your adsense account

    My view is different from other reviewers. If you get high CTR Adsense will ban you and tell you that your account is suspicious. According to me 3-4% is best.

    7% is not bad at all I would say. Many websites I know get less then 2%.

    I think Safe CTR 3% to 5% but below the 5% is the best.

    I have had constant CTRs above 30% for over a year on 2 high traffic sites and never missed a payment yet. You don't need to worry about it as long as it is real, natural traffic.

    7% is a safe CTR and should not arouse any suspicion. The Adsense team tends to assess accounts with a very high CTR but even if it is high, you will be safe if it is all legitimate clicks.

    Hm...I could've sworn that I read somewhere that over 10% CTR's would raise red flags in Google Adsense...

    i have 25% ctr sometimes

    and

    sometimes it is zero
    mean changing time to time
    i think if you have attractive adds than visitors do clicks

    so its not ........
    but if you have constant ctr and its like 15% 20% or above it may be a fraud clicks
