can someone look at my site please and tell me why my ctr is so low it is http://www.thegettogether.net/ it has alot of daily visitor and is free and always has chatters and new traffic. i just have a very low ctr, im lucky it i get 3 dollars a day.
I dont see huge traffice on your site and secondly try to put your ads on pages those have most hits. Get help from Google analytics for that matter!
I would try to do only text ads (cancel image ads) - you can do this on the adsense dashboard. Also - open a log and start changing something with your ads every week (depending on your traffic - a week should be enough) and document your changes, compare the results to your changes and this will help you improve the results for sure. I would start with major changes at first. Good luck
Hummmm, I don't know, this is kinda painful to see, I don't know why I'm seeing a marquee in 2012. But ok, You shouldn't apply any tricks to adsense, you will get your site banned. Good luck.
$3 a day isn't that bad. It a social network, and not a content based site. CTR tend to be lower on these sites.
