    Hello! I can't seem to get much higher than a 1% CTR on my websites adsense ads? All suggestions appreciated! As of January 26th I've had 35,000 page views with 408 clicks. For the month of January.
    Thanks for helping!

    Hi Waqar! I have ad at top of page directly over recipe (content) an add to left of content and an ad directly below content. I thought these were suggested hotspots?

    1% is a little low.

    Average is 1.9.

    Years ago I was averaging 3 to 4%. My website wasn't very attractive, making me think they were clicking the ads to escape lol

    You should try to change ads category and play with ads size, place, colors etc.

    here is my site learnenglish.spybs.com I got 40-50$ per day from this site. you can take idea from here for size, place etc.
