    They all have a good CTR since they all use the same basic coding, but Talian is the theme I know for sure has very good CTR results (tested that theme extensively). It's the theme used on the site I mentioned that has increased it's CTR above 6% recently (3 and a half days at above 6% now, so not a one off).

    Talian theme is here http://www.google-adsense-templates...talian-with-adsense-and-seo-optimisation.html

    Can you keep us posted over the next week or so to let us know if this CTR is keeping up?

    Sure, so far still averaging above 6% for the last 5 days now with only one day a little below 6%, and so far today with just over half the usual full days impressions the site has a CTR above 7.5%! (I doubt it will end the day that high and might be a mistake**).

    **Anyone else have problems logging into AdSense today? Logged in fine this morning, but until recently kept getting an error. Now I'm not sure the numbers are accurate.

    I haven't used borders for years. FWIW, so far this month, my CTR is 7.49%. I've seen higher in the past. I don't think there's anything sneaky about it. The AdSense team even encourages "blending".

    This is maybe truth with your site , SEO-Expert , but in my site I tried everything, and still can not achieve CTR higher than 0.7%. This sucks, and this is very low ctr. I tried blending, I tried stand out with another link color, i tried different placement according to adsense heatmap, and nothing. There is no way to raise up my CTR. Can you please help me on this, becuase this makes me very frustrated...
