    Hey guys. My CTR has always been extremely low. I see people saying they average 2-3% and I can barely get above 0.4%

    Can you review my ad placement on my homepage as well as single posts?

    My website is http://homesoftherich.net

    I have one ad in the header...3 ads on the sidebar...two link ads underneath the post title and one ad in the middle of the post content.

    Thanks!!

    Anybody?? -_- My CPC has always been really good, averages $0.50-$1.00. So if I can get my CTR to around 2-3% that would be awesome.

    Changed some things. I still have the 1 ad in the header...now have 2 ads on the sidebar and 2 ads in the posts (one at the top, one at the bottom).

    Your ads are where they are supposed to be. You need to consider other forms of monetization. Adblockers seems to be screwing everybody today, and it's only going to get worse.

    This is how I remember your site: https://web.archive.org/web/20160528211850/http://homesoftherich.net/

    It's my personal opinion, of course, but I think your logo and layout were more interesting back then.

    Got to love DP lol. To be fair I think both logos are equally nice. Ad placements are on point, in favor of your other ad placements I'd even consider tossing the infolinks rollup you have and sending more traffic. Godspeed
