    Hi

    Im having probs with my adsense earnings going up and down quite alot though for some reason CTR is generally at 1% or just under.

    Im getting 2000+ hits per day though feel the problem is more how google choose what words to class as "relevant" as over time, (if i dont change layout of text) the words get less relevant, not more, and earnings go down :(

    For instance it now mentions "andriod apps" as one of my words, though my site is Symbian based and doesnt mention the word android once, i also have things such as "baby signing" even though the word baby never appears...

    Any advice?

    Locate the link unit at top of the table instead of bottom. I think that might give you a boost in CTR.

    Do you think so?

    Thought it looked neat at the bottom personally. Im allowed to have one on top and one on the bottom i think (pretty sure its 3 placements per page) though not sure if it would just look wrong.

    Also, i have it at the bottom of the index page as shown, the page that says "forum" and the cpanel page once logged into the account, though all 3 placements are at the bottom of the page like the index/homepage

    There is only a link unit on your website. Consider placing 728x90 banner above "Welcome to S60 Certificate Key" section. This will greatly increase your CTR.

    Sorry ive only just seen this reply.

    I did wonder about sticking it on top, but thought it would just look weird?

    Do you really think it would get better CTR?

    Ive been using the filter since this post and even though the content is alot more related now the CTR is still at the same level

    except that link unit at bottom, i can not see any other ad block on your side.
    I think you should have a 728x90 ad block on your header, that should boost your CTR.
