    Depends on forum niche and layout, on my forum, often 0. I can have 20,000 page impressions and 0 clicks, which is why I don't really use google on my forum anymore ;)

    i think that depents on your forum category. if you have a general forum, i think you may get click;)

    Forums are notorious for low CTR.

    My static content pages get 10x the CTR that my forum does on the same topics.

    Forums attract regulars....and they get ad blind very fast.

    Quality CPM networks don't allow banner ads to be placed on forums.

    Forums are the worst target for ads, regular member wont click them and learn not to notice them. however, if you place them between the posts or under the main navigation, for example, ppl can click by mistake, which works good since forums are getting browsed a lot...
