    As far as I'm concern 390 clicks in 11 k impression is very cool. You should be happy about it.

    Actually the CTR seems o.k.

    If you want a higher CTR, ask yourself "Do the type of ads line up with the content on the page?". If your content is on cars and the ads are about recipes there is a disconnect and people likely won't click. I'm not sure how to get G to display more relevant ads. Maybe someone else could chime in.

    390 is fine for that 11K impressions. I am getting only 50 / 60 clicks for the same amount so your doing fine. Just get more traffic now.

    As others have said, you CTR is very good. However, if you want to improve, you have to experiment.

    Use crazyegg (or any heatmap software) to track where the "hot spots" are on your website. Make sure you have to big square ad boxes in that area, one with image ads only, the other text ads only. Keep in mind you will be ruining the user experience (which wasnt part of your question), but you might be able to increase you CTR by a couple %.

    no, i can't agree dudes. 11k impression should give at least more than 500 clicks. change your ads position. your color combination is pretty cool. Remember in case of horizontal line ads like your top most ad, not gonna give you any kind of earning if visitors just click them. they have to visit the sites which are come after clicking. so using this ad is simply a waste. try something else your click will be definitely increase.

    Damn that's good, I normally get about 30-50 clicks for 11,000 impressions.

    Haha, had a look and one of my sites has 8 clicks for 14,000 impressions. And that's the site that gets $2 a click, I can only dream of 300+ clicks a day :confused:

    Your CTR is 3.5% which is good, I would say a bit above the average.
