    Thre are many threads that people saying that adsense on directory
    has bad results. But I think that also another system will have poor results...

    Web Directories are very poor in adsense earnings. Very low CTR.

    Web directories generally combine low traffic, webmaster visitors, and non-targeted ads. That's why they don't do well with Adsense.

    CTR of directories is even lower than CTR for forums . The reason is simple as the traffic coming to the directories mainly consists of webmasters / SEO / Tech guys and those guys are google ad blind :D . So they will not bother to check them and do what they have been there for i.e adding their links :eek:

    But some people have claimed to be earning more than average from directories :rolleyes:
