10% Adsense CTR - Is that ok?

    I was doing a couple tweaks to my blog last night to optimize my Adsense revenue and I figured out a way to increase my CTR. So today when I was looking at my Adsense earnings I saw that I had a 10% CTR on my ads. Do you guys think it is ok to consisitently have a CTR of over 10%.

    I've read from some people that having a CTR consistently that high may get you looked at my Google and possibly ban. As far as I can tell my ad placements are within the rules of Google Adsense.

    Any suggestions people?

    It has actually increased to 13.33% CTR today so far. Hopefully this is ok. If so I am going to keep my ad placements the way they are.

    Are you doing anything against TOS/Policies?

    Not that I can see. So I guess I should be fine then.

    So long as they are genuine clicks it's fine.

    If you're not doing anything "under the board" then I wouldn't worry about it :)
