    Read a lot and made many changes, still clicks are almost zero.

    My site www.wordtutorial.net

    Strategies incorporated- Checklist

    1. Above the fold ad placement
    2. Blending
    3. Matching font family and font size of the ads to that of content.
    4. No border
    5. Left and right placments and tracking with custom channels.
    6. 3 content ad units per page.
    7. Use of link unit
    8. Use of adsense for search
    9. All ad types enabled- i.e. text, image, rich media
    10. Use of prefered ad sizes
    11. Keeping in mind Heatmap when placing ads
    12. An ad at the end of article

    What am i doing wrong that is the cause of almost zero CTR. :confused:

    Receiving about 70-100 visitors per day currently. Good quality traffic, mostly from Google.

    Please help!

    I just noticed something kind of strange on your website. The site displayed an adsense ad for a Comic website in PA, which I would have liked to check out as I publish a comic strip on my site. When I clicked your adsense ad for the comic webite, I was instead taken to Google Adwords to sign up for an advertising account. I was not interested in an adwords account as I already have one, and closed the page within a few seconds. I would hazard a guess that they will deduct the click from you as an "invalid click".Google seems to be breaking their own "TOS". Watch for that on your reports today.

    Nope- everything is same as before. the checklist i have mentioned above was already incorporated, still no clicks. :p

    Could be ads relevance issue. Any suggestions on that?

    I hope so you've got enough traffic on your website to have clicks. In order to generate traffic try genuine, original and quality content and then try to create as many backlinks as possible.
