    it's 0,5% CTR. Could be better, but what you expect? 95%CTR?

    I don't know much about proxy CTR but I guess it should be fairly low. For your ads placement it's pretty good but I think the ads around the search box are too aggressive. It's like: "Click my ads, I'm here to make money with you". People might not click your ads just for that reason, it's obvious your final goal is to make money, not offer a service. Make it more subtle, I think one link unit at the search bar is enough(It's probably going to show the same ads anyway). Put the other one elsewhere on your page.

    That's my personal opinion!

    Well, on proxy sites avg CTR should be 3-4% (i have seen 10%+ even) and per click should worth 4-5 cents. If you are lower than this, try better optimization of ads and also try to keep MFA ads out.

    Good luck.

    Yes, it's something to be expected.
    Concentrate on getting more traffic, it should be fairly easy for a proxy site.
    However the niche is known as low paying one :(

    usually proxies should have bigger CTR.

    maybe it is because of my ad placement?
