    Hey guys,

    I've been using Google AdSense on my website for about 2 months now. My website is www.Date-Rater.com and I am directing it towards the 18-25 age group/demographic. My CTR has NOT ever gone above 0.20%, which you all know is pretty terrible.

    What do I need to do to increase my CTR???.....any input is invited! Thanks in advance!

    We can't do anything with what cpm we get....all we can do is write quality content with proper keyword density..or shift to a new ad program :)

    Google has a good guide to where to put ads in their adsense network. But .16% ctr is not horrible (IMO) depending on where you have the ad on the website.

    I suggest you should go to the GOOGLE ADSENSE board, where you can find something that improves your CTR

    The placement of your ads is not good enough. I can see that the min focus point is the picture on center.
    I will suggest you try to put the ads on the either top/bottom of the picture or bottom of the profile.
