How's my placement? CTR 15% I think it could be higher.

    Site is http://www.onepiecehq.com/

    The CTR isn't so bad, but I think it could be much higher. Site gets about 30-40 clicks a day depending on the ads being shown. Right now the two ads in the footer get 1/3 of my total clicks. The ad right in the middle gets about 1-2 clicks a day. The ad that appears in the sidebar on certain pages gets 2-4 clicks a day. The ad in the center of the download pages (http://www.onepiecehq.com/download/one-piece-chapter-593.html) gets about 8 clicks a day. The link units in the sidebar get quite a few clicks but they pay extremely horrible. I don't think they're worth keeping for the .02 clicks they get.

    One issue I get are these toilet/swimsuit ads, and they reduce the CTR to almost nothing so I'm constantly filtering them. I may be filtering some good sites.. I don't know. Am I allowed to post my filter list here?

    If you don't have permission to display those video links, it's copyright infringement and only a matter of time before adsense bans your account.

    That's an incredible CTR value. It's relatively rare to get CTRs 0f 15%. To be honest you've probably maxed out your CTR capacity but you might be able to squeeze out a few more percentages.

    I like the way you blended the ads on the right with your navigation, but don't you think that's a little too borderline? It's a little too blended? But if you've been having some success with it without getting into trouble then the best of luck to you.

    Nice website interesting layout.

    Good luck.

    Haha, these comments always make me laugh. I've been running adsense on this site since 2006. There's more to it than that.
