    I d say 2% is average, yes. But it depends on your niche, variation is high: everything between 0.5 and 5% is possible.

    Try to get it to 5 percent. Play around with placement and colors.

    10% is the best. However PageViews/UniqueVisitors ratio affects CTR directly.

    Personally I stop trying to improve it once it get to 5% but if it's higher I don't mind either.

    I would say anything above 3% is really good. It will only be possible if you have really good content and low bounce rate.

    I think market average is 2%.
    But it depends on your niche and quality of website. The better you content is, visitors will click less on ads and CTR will be low.

    I have changed the theme about 5 times but still can't reach 5%. Yes sometimes I can reach it but most of time I get 1-3%.
    It makes me frustrated..
