    Just yesterday I had my all time high.. I had 1324 page views. I was really happy but my CTR was zero. No clicks nothing nada.. I only made 1 cent.

    I love it that I have good traffic, and its growing. But no adsense clicks. Its also targeted traffic. I can see the keywords my viewers use. PLEASE HELP

    1) Your adsense is not very well displayed
    2) You have not made use of what is available to you from Adsense properly
    3) Your site is not optimised well enough to produce relevant ads for your target audience

    Your text links at the top are showing irrelevant ads. One that I saw was about religion. Of course you will get 1 cent clicks...

    I prefer color banner ads, maybe you would have a better chance with those?

    Whats the source of your traffic?
    Your first column of ads in your left sidebar are ugly. the ones underneath are much better, your blog needs a TLD and a nice favicon and a more customised template in my opinion.
    Is your traffic from search? if so you should be getting clicks with that many page views, at least 1 or 2 a day.
    Tweak your ads and display some above the fold but not obtrusive, check out my sigs for my adsense placement.
    Your sites not bad, its just not click friendly, brighten it up a bit!

    What do you achieve speaking to people in this manner? its counter productive, you can have traffic and no clicks if your site is not click friendly and optimized for ad clicks.

    Your positioning could be worked on, like get rid of that blue ads by google on the top and instead put a 468x60 unit there.

    Remember one thing big adsense unit give big benefits.
    You placed link unit on top but it not like that its part of your site please make change
    And try to analysis on you visitors result then post all content related to that topic so your ads automatically display related to content.
    Please use text unit in place image + text

    I agreed with all the replies. Try serving ad units instead of link units with texts and images and try to blend them in with the site. Get rid of the colorful background in the ads. It's distracting not attracting. If you do all of the suggestions given by everyone, you might get a click or two.

    I have a site that gets 1600 a day and it gets about 1-2 clicks most days, the blog is 6 weeks old and you can visit it here and see if the layout etc helps you a bit as I am getting similar traffic through this blog.

    It's all about having relevent ads available from Adsense for the topic that you are covering. If there are no Adwords advertisers participating for those particular subjects then Google has no choice but to serve your site with ads that have nothing to do with what your visitors are reading and are interested in. No relevence equals no clicks.

    Agree that maybe the traffic isnt clicking for a reason. i.e. the ads aren't relevant. Manage your ads manually and only pick ones that are relevant for you. Job done

    Matt, glad you agree and your idea is a good one if there are actually any relevent ads available from the network, but some topics don't have any advertisers at all! In this case you're stuffed, best to drop that topic and move on to ones with plenty of Adwords advertisers. Easy to do a quick check, just key in the keyword in to Google and see how many sponsored links come up.

    I've found the small link units like the ones included at the top of your site to be completely useless. I had hundreds of clicks on standard ad units, and had zero on most of my link units. I recommend removing them.

    Read google's documentation. There's a good piece called Which Ad Size Should I Use? It highlights the most effective shapes / dimensions. I've found those recommendations fit with my experience. I also find the 728x90 banners perform well. Where to place the ads? Look at the google adsense heat map. This is good general advice but from my experience, performance based on location varies. One of my highest-paying ad units is in one of the "lowest-heat" areas on this map, but it is because of the structure of the site, because it's a natural place for people's eyes to go given the other stuff on the page and the overall organization of the site.

    I would recommend trying to eliminate all formats but the recommended ones, if possible. Experiment with locations. But try google's recommendations for starters.

    i thinks your adsense should run under the live traffic feed and adsense above the post is good
