Horrific Stats

Page impressions
2,420,330


Clicks
1,951

These numbers are pathetic. Does anyone else have sorry numbers like these? With those amount of page impressions what should an average amount of clicks be?

 

Better try other ads placements.

 

I think you should try a Rectangular Ad Block, I read in some book that it gets more clicks than any other,

 

It doesn't happen to be a forum, does it?

 

Where is the traffic coming from?

 

Google and other search engines.

It is a forum yes.

I will look into that. Thank you.

 

I suspected that. Forums generally have much lower CTR.
However, it still seems to be too low in your case.

 

Being a forum you can expect lower CTR, but it should not be that low. I suspect poor optimization.

 

Well if you run forum than it should be , On my site for 28.000 visitors I got 320clicks , well almost you have same for me. Just try to optimize

 

I have been using 468 X 60 for few months. After sometime i replaced 468X60 with 250X250 - I was amazed to see almost 80%+ change in clicks and I am making 80$ to 100$ per day in just 6 months time.

I also tried different locations for my ads, this aspect also increases your CTR. I followed Google's Heat map for a site. Which is really Great

 

You can try ads within posts to get higher CTR. Ads must not be bigger, use smaller ad formats, it will work for you.

Try to edit templates of your forum script and make sure to backup everything

 

does tht mean a ctr of 0.8? but still you should make sooo much revenue? my stats are sooo much worse:

impressions for 3 weeks

800

cliks

21

 

Wouldn't ads within posts be against their TOS? You are disguising the ad to look like a post...

 

Wow your CTR was sooo low that my windows calculator gave me an error....

If im not mistaken thats a .08 % CTR ( yes thats eight hundreds of a percent)

Change your ad placements!!!!
