    I dont see any ads on the homepage, Add a Vertical banner on the sidebar and a rectangular ad block in the content area this should increase the CTR for sure

    There are no ads mate . Add vertical sky scrapper and also use link units . Link units something have higher CTR than text link ads but this might not be the case for every site . You can experiment your ad placement :)

    I think it would displace the layout and hinder usabilty as I find it visually obstructive

    I've placed a 120x600 text only Skyscraper and would be placing 250x250 within some long post of else they'll be too many ads splashed.

    I somehow downgrade the value of sites that have Adsense splattered all over them. I just find it rather cheap. I does not alway work when trying to properly brand a site
