    I currently get an Adsense CTR of 0.37% on a popular Forum.

    Is this a bad CTR , if so how can i improve it.


    Thanks

    Well, forums are always going to have a bad CTR, because the members become oblivious to the ads.

    Well, if you will check out my signature you will see I also have a gaming forum and am kind of facing the same problem. What I have done is added a new blog to the front page, and am making more money off of that after only about oh, 10 days or so, that I ever have off of my forum. It's great because you don't have the initial problems of getting traffic to it like other blogs do, because you already have visitors. I still haven't figured out how to actually make a decent amount off of the forums themselves, but the blog does use the forums to make money itself. You might give it a try.
