    Told ya not to expect clicks with an image hosting site. Remember? :D Your best bet to monetize an image hosting site is with CPM banners. Build up your traffic until you're getting at least 2,000 uniques a day (5,000 would be better) and then apply to all the major and non-major CPM networks.

    CTR would be very low on this site :)
    Build it more and make it stable then use CPM ads and adsense with some good blending.
    You can earn big $ this way.

    maybe it is only a keywords optimization problem

    People may be interested to just go and grab the pictures..

    Might be also a placement issue... Try placing a banner unit

    It's good. Site is still young my friend. Top banner probably needs some work. Looks too much like a banner. Be patient, the clicks will come :)

    Wow , I found a people got same problem with me
    For me the CTR is approx -- EDITED , If it is "Approx" will google ban me ? (About 300-400 imp with 0 click) --
    The most difficult step is building traffic. I'm doing everything to make it meets CPM requirement

    Tribalfusion , 2000 uniq a day
    Casale Media , 10000 uniq a month
    CPX Interactive , 10000 uniq a month
    doubleclick , unknown
    advertising.com , unknown
    revenue.net , unknown

    Yeah, thanks for sugguestions. I know that the main part is building the traffic (for now still < 100 uniques per day). However, It'll better if we can get some small fruits on the way. I'll try some blending technique to see if that's better.
