    I am very new and believe me I am reading reading reading on here. Great forum btw and a lot of fun.

    I get some traffic to my pages but I have yet to see anything in my CTR column.

    Can you tell which ads are Clicks and which ones are impressions?

    Can you actually tell which ads your customer are or are not interested in? And then can you do anything about it?

    Thanks

    D'you mean CTR is 0? Then, nobody click your Ads yet, since CTR is percentage between Click/Page impressions.
    Impresson= when visitoer load your page where ads is displayed
    Click= Somebody has click ads on your page

    I look at the ads and if they are not interesting to me - like the one for the armed forces medical equipment - I ad it to my adfilter list. Try to anticipate what your readers will be interested in and go from there.

    is there a way to tell which ads are appearing on your sites?
    how do I block it?

    I think the ad was called Medic something or other. I forget. But it was on my entertainment blog. To block ads you simply sign into your account, click on Competitors Adfilter and add the URL of the offending ad to the list. I usually add the URL with the 'www' and without. Then click save. The changes should take effect within a few hours. Cheers. ;)

    I have no idea if there is a way to tell what ads people click on, and what ads appear on your site - but be aware that different ads appear for people in different locations. So someone from the UK who looks at your site will likely see different ads to someone from the USA etc. I think it can even vary from what city in the US you are in as to what ads google will display on your site.

    I think. ;)
