    Hello since you cant put images beside text ads, what about this idea? It seems like it would help CTR?

    Just trying different things since my ctr is only 1-1.4%

    Thanks

    That's a feedback ad, so not really.
    Feedback ads don't pay anything.

    No i mean does it attract you to the text links, just like putting a picture beside, remember back then you could do that?

    Your CTR rate is so low because you are running a proxy site. They always have bad CTRs.

    Why does every other person on this forum have a proxy site?

    I'd say.. that is 100% legal and will definitely attract people.

    And you think its better on the left then the right? Because people look left first so maybe they will just click the picture?

    That IS illegal - Google has posted it some time ago on its official blog. The variety of CTR which is based on image or text ads is mostly dependent on the layout of the page.

    taht might work but remember, you need good content on your pages to attract good ads and people before you get the clicks

    When it comes to proxy sites you will never have a good ctr. I while back I looked a starting a few proxy sites but did not because of fear from being smart priced.

    You are absolutely wrong; it is definitely allowed on Google's end, and does not breach their terms.

    Im trying different things

    Can someone check the site out, www.oracleproxy.com and see if its all good? Please check out proxified pages to and tell me what you think, and for some reason the ads arent (Together) in proxified pages, i cant figure out why but see for yourself :)

    And i forgot to ask, are images beside Adbrite ads allowed? I dont see anything about it in there ToS

    Thanks

    It seems like it falls in the grey area. Why risk your adsense account?

    Waffleguy its not a grey area, its using the googles adsense image beside a text! And i been doing tests, having the picture on the RIGHT side, and the text on the left has increased my CTR, it is 2.10% on a proxy thats good :)

    In the past using images did help me a bit. But after so many bans I moved away from it. No need to temp fate.
