    You can have a million impressions and 0% CTR. Try un-blending the ads, moving them around, etc.

    You may want to take a look at your site using IE7 at 1024x768. I imagine a large segment of your target market uses that and well the site isn't working to well. I took some screenshots if you you want to see them.

    Your site does not display right in Firefox under Ubuntu. You should check it with other browsers. I do not know if this is just a Ubuntu Firefox problem or just a Firefox problem. Always check your site in different browsers.

    Do you have sites listed in allowed sites but not www.howdatingworks.net? That could be the cause of your problem.

    I maximized my window and it displayed right. It should display right for a lower resolution. You are loosing a lot of viewers by making it only look right with a high resolution. It should be fixed.

    My two cents of advice, You have very less content, so people just move out once they open it. You should keep people interested with some descent articles and also you can add a few more text ads in between the posts. Also you can have expanded posts with an image or two in each post.

    Fix the page formatting as I have to scroll down to far to see the content. This as with most others it seems means that I scroll straight past all your ads to see the content.

    Using Firefox, there is too much empty space on the hotspots of your site.

    Your site should appear right in all browsers/sizes, otherwise you might be missing clicks.

    Also try changing the colors.

    Peace,

    How about putting some graphics? Sometimes putting graphics or images in your post make your readers stick to the topic and click to read more.

    It lower resolution, only the navigation shows on top, and it's quite confusing and looks spammy. My guess is that most of your visitors didn't even bother scrolling down.
    In a 2 column web layout, having a wider site doesn't necessarily ad to usability, it actually makes it harder to read if the columns are too wide.
    It shouldn't be a big deal to edit a line or two in the stylesheet and make the site narrower. Also, I see your site is running WordPress. They're thousands of good WordPress themes out there for free, so maybe try switching.

    your site is not properly designed. looks like you have allignment issue where there is a huge white space before the content. your right menue bar shows up on the top where the contents starts way down below. you need to fix that before anyone clicks. lot of white space means lack of call for action. text both IE and firefox to see how it looks.

    Thank you all for your suggestions.

    I have decided to change the theme and play with the ads. Let's see :)
