    On link units when somebody clicks they are presented by a list of ads, are you paid when they simply click to see the ad display or when they click an ad?

    When they click the ad i.e. after a second click.

    The CTR on link units is over 5x what I get on other ad units. I use them along the top of the page like a nav bar.

    Before you post a thread, activate your brain. Who is going to pay for the first click? Google? Funny. :rolleyes:

    On some pages they do work very well. Not sure what it depends on yet. I certainly don't get a 5x click through rate on them. But on some pages they do perform decently or even very well. On others - not at all.
