    Every since i'v changed around my website ads and changed up colors, my CTR went up from 1% to about 3% and yesterday it was 7%... should I be worried or is 7% not really that high?

    No. I have had days with 33% on a site do not worry about 7% If site is high all the time say over 25% they will check site to make sure it is not asking for clicks

    You shouldn't be worried if you're not breaking the TOS :) - give us the URL, we can check it for you if you wish.

    Everybody is worrying about the CTR... The ctr depends on the amount of impressions that you get.... If you have a website that has low impressions you will have high CTR.... if your CTR isn't bigger than 100% (one visitor that visits one page and clicks an ad :) ) then it's OK.
    You should worry when you see like 1,300% CTR :D

    You all need to see the big picture....

    7% CTR is high, but not too high.
    You are safe, dude.

    Actually, I'm getting low CTR because I get a LOT of impressions :D
    But, I have other websites that get high CTR (30-40%) and I have no problems with them ;)

    If you think it over even a 100% CTR is perfectly possible...so don't worry about the CTR...

    Depends on niche. Varies. For certain niche your CTR may be high and for others it might be low

    CTR depends a lot upon the niche. 20% is great

    as long as you don't click your own ads, even a 100% CTR is safe. 1 impression, 1 click, that's 100% CTR :)

    Even with 7% CTR, you wont get more dollar. It is within the safer zone. Aim to get around 20% which is really worthy and will get you more income.
