    Hello Experts,

    How I can increase CTR for Adsense on my website? it is 0.20% at the moment. We have a lot of traffic, but not making a lot of money from it.

    Visit my website - Watch WWE online free

    we are getting 165,000 visitors per month and growing at the rate of 25% every month :). I will be happy to hear suggestions about making money from this website. What else can be included?

    Thank you in advance

    The only way to know for sure is testing different placements. There are no magic answers, and each case is different.
    Also, when I say "test" it doesn't mean just slapping different ad placement or colors, and figuring out what works best.

    This is how you should do it:


    Get a simple script that serves different adsense ads randomly,
    and set up a different channel for each ad so you can track performance.

    For example, it could alternate between blue links and red link ads.
    Keep the test running until each alternative gets over 10k pageviews,

    then look at the CTR for each ad: more often than not, you'll realize one alternative significantly outperforms the other.

    Keep doing this process over and over again, and the performance of your google ads should keep rising over time.
    Good luck!

    Damn, Smitten! Great advice! I've always done it manually (very carefully, tracking every detail). Never thought of automating it. Would you have a certain script in mind, or better yet, a wordpress plugin? Cheers.

    That's a great advice Smitten...ads rotation+different colors really make a difference. :)
