    be glad its CPC then :). Ive tried content network and I've learned that you should be happy with a lower CTR than a higher one. If they convert, dont worry about the CTR too much.

    Try setting up 2 campaigns: 1 for search, 1 for content network.

    Experiment with ad copy to see if you can get better results.

    It can take up to 24 hours sometimes for ads to start to appear in the content network. Also, if you're bidding $0.05 or lower you may not get impression in that network - Google tends to favor higher bidding ads since they are splitting the $ with the webmaster.
