Can't get CTR above 1%

I'm struggling to get my ctr up on http://www.sonicwildfire.com

I'm averaging just over 100 uniques a day and getting maybe 1-2 clicks a day

Any ideas on how I can increase clicks?

 

you mean 100 uniques or 100 ad views?
1% is still good.

 

You should change your ads to match the color of the other links on your page

 

100 uniques. I will try changing the colors. Thanks

 

I don't think the one above "Welcome to Sonic Wild Fire . com" will get any clicks because it is like a banner which will be largely ignored.

According to AdsenseGold black URL is not a good color because it doesn't stand out.

Mine is as follows:

google_color_border = "FFFFFF";
google_color_bg = "FFFFFF";
google_color_link = "000080";
google_color_url = "999999";
google_color_text = "000000";

After playing around with colors my earnings had increased significantly.

 

Actually you have very less data to analyze CTR

 

should i remove the 728x90 google ad at the top and replace it with something else? I am changing the colors now

 

you links are light blue, you adsense links are dark blue, and your headers (welcome to Sonic Wild Fire) are black. Try making them all the same color and your CTR should go up

 

You have a major fundamental problem!!! Your site keyword has no Adwords inventory. How do I know?

1. Go to google.com
2. search for "sonic wildfire" or even "sonic wild fire"

As you can see, there are no sponsored ads on the right column of your search result. This means that nobody is paying for that keyword.

So, what Adsense does it it takes the next few keywords based on density and combines them all together in your ads. This creates very non-targeted ads that your users will not likely click on.

In order to get that click rate up, you are going to have to re-write content to focus more toward something that specifically relates to sonic wildfire and has AdWords inventory. You could re-write the content to add the term "Nintendo" at bit more because Nintendo has great inventory.

SEO Tools has a great tool for figuring out keyword density that you could use to tweak your content.

thanks for the great response, however i feel like most of my ads are nintendo or sonic related.
