    First blend your ads with the background! I guarantee that you'll see a rise in your CPM right away.

    Do these things.

    Blend your ads with the the background (as stated above)
    Try getting more picture based ads. They are more attractive and people do often click them.
    Place your ads cleverly.
    Get a ad when you have the orange shade background. Ensure that it is a pictorial ad.
    You can also consider changing the theme.

    Hope this helps.

    cheers

    I agree completely with pro.seods. So try to do those things.

    Further I think you should consider creating more content when making new posts. The posts seems a bit too short and without information and that makes the Ads stand out in a bad way.

    The visitors clearly see what you are trying - making money from ads.

    I think you need to work more on your website and have some patience. If its the website in your sig then its not very user friendly and its messy, it looks more like a social bookmarking site.

    Try waiting 6 months before expecting to make anything from adsense.

    Google actually provides some documentation to help. Go to your adwords account and browse around the help section. As for the site design- change iot or clean it up. It is very harsh right now and not so user friendly.

    Yeah, your site is just a baby in the scheme of things.
    Keep working on your site and developing your content.

    Try moving your ads to the left instead of over there on the right.

    Yes blend them so they look like actual links that are part of your posts.

    I would find a different wordpress theme, this one doesn't seem very good. Theres tons of free ones out there with places where you just paste in you adsense code its pretty easy to use. You should also work on SEO to get more traffic

    The idea is to get people interested in your information to your site; and you can do that via search engines and YouTube.

    Hello,
    I found this website somewhere (it is not mine) and I liked the ads placement strategy very much. This one is a very good example of ads placement which attracts

    See the Website in the screen shot below, and observe the placement of the ads there. Content ads ( text ads ) are highlighted as content. Image ad is placed very well and the third context ads (which is partially visible in this screenshot) is also blended beautifully.

    Hope it helps :cool:
    Say thanks :)

    Also Bounce Rate affects the CTR .. If bounce rate is high, you will get very low CTR, and even low eCPM.

    In addition to all of that, you should also know that very few click on ads.

    You can expect no more than 1% of your visitors to click on ads.

    More than that if it were on free things, ring tones (stuff teens like) or on sex.

    Keep that in mind.
