    Looking at my adsense account, it shows I have had only 106 click out of 13,375 page impressions. This looks bad to me, what do you think?

    0.79% CTR, could be bad, maybe not. Really depends on your website.

    I try to get as much targeted traffic as possible. What should the CTR be around? 3%?

    That is bad for the amount of impressions you're getting

    Are you guys serious? If I average 3 clicks per 1,000 impressions, I consider it a good thing...

    But then again, I refuse to fill my good sites to the brink with advertising, one small rectangle is enough

    I get over 20,000 and only 3 clicks. If you're doing bad, then I'm screwed. (Which I very well might be.)

    Yes, it's quite bad :(

    Try better blending, placement and more targeted ads.

    I have a 12" piece of string. Is that too short?

    Okay, how the hell is everyone getting so many clicks. I mean, I know the first rule of the AdSense board is lie as much as you can, but there's got to be more to it than "better ad placement" if your clicks are that high.

    That's basically all there is to it - better placement and blending your ads in. It's not a huge secret ;)

    It's all about optimization and able to show relevant ads. Before monday, my CTR was horrible, I did some optimization like changing link color and also the template for my website making it more text friendly and now my ctr is way up for the same traffic.

    Dude, you need to do some serious testing. I get 6-10 clicks for only 200-250 page views a day.
