Hi I simply don"t understand how some webmasters have CTR more than 10%, I can"t get more than 0.8% all my visitors are targeted but they don"t click, I am asking my selves,They must be laying ? CTr of about 20% is this possible .I see post of many webmasters who have that high CTR,,what did they do to have that high CTR. Can someone post some sight with high CTR. I would be happy with 2-3 CTR rate, What is it the trick? I have about more than 3000 impressions a day and earning few bucks average click is 10-20 cents . I could only imagine if i have CTR of 5%. Five time more earnings. My site is about scripts.
a lot will lie just to sound cool, but is very possible to get 10-20%. and maybe more. When they say they get 10-20%, these are one of their channels...maybe just page, or a site with like 20 visitors. However, as more and more visitors come, espcially repeat visitors CTR will surely drop like crazy. I'm not speaking for everyone, and I know some people who get tons of visitors and still get high CTR. In fact, I have one site that just got a 20% ctr the other day...averaging around 10% now. I use one ad on the entire site, and that ad is a link unit. LINK UNIT = High ASS CTR if done correctly.
Is it a forum? Forums tend to have CTRs in the range you've described. I've had article sites with CTRs ranging from 10-40% from organic traffic. It depends on the nature of the site and how appealing the ads are (i.e. if you have terrible content, chances are they'll escape through ads).
There's the clue - a site about scripts (assuming programming language type scripts). Technical people don't generally click on ads. Besides, if someone came to your site and found exactly the script they were looking for, they would have no reason to click on ads or seek additional information. Furthermore, if I do a normal Google search on the word "scripts", none of the Adsense ads displayed are about programming scripts. Google apparently has little or no inventory of ads for that topic. Therefore, you can't expect your visitors to click on irrelevant ads.
Forget br traffic listen carefully to this - If u have 100 visitors - 10 click - u earn something! U have 10 visitors - 10 click - u earn quite a LOT! And...if ur content is optimised for High paying keywords - then, u are miliking the cash cow!! Now think - and research!
The trick is to get visitors to a crap site with nothing else to do other than click on your ads to navigate away
Well, I'm not sure about your math. 10 clicks is 10 clicks, regardless of the number of visitors - and you earn the same, all else being equal. However, I would be happier with 10 visitors and 10 clicks because, with a 100% CTR, any work that I do to increase traffic will pay off much better than with a 10% CTR. Play with the Adsense calculator in my signature to see what I mean.
I have quite a high CTR on one particular page but generally mine is fairly average. The reason is it so high on this page is that people who are reading the page are looking for ideas on how to build something, and alongside my article is AS ads for commercially available products of the same topic, so naturally it's going to have a good CTR on that page.
depends on the type of site. A small content site will have a higher CTR than a forum. I've got sites with 30-40 percent CTR, i've also got forums in the .2 CTR range.
Well I also have a site with scripts, actually thousands of those and guess what, I don't even have adsense on it. All the revenue is coming from subscription. Just a hint
MFAs usually have high CTRs. I had purchased a "keyword" domain a year back , but didn't get time to work on it. Just to make the site online, I created a page,put Adsense on it and gave it 2-3 links from my other sites. Two months back I noticed I was getting daily traffic from MSN. The reason - some spammer had created a big bunch of sites/pages around the keyword that I was targetting and was linking to my site as a "resource" . The result - my site is number two in MSN for a keyword which has 100+ searches each day according to overture. This site has only a few pages and thus half the users exit by clicking Ads - leading to a high CTR.
Yeah, I had adsense on this site for some time, but the ads where not really relevant and I got like $2 per day. Considering I have almost one thousand subscribers I decided to drop adsense so the site looks more... hmm what is the word, professional? I don't know. Sry for my English, I started learning it only a year ago and I’m a little drunk right now
If your site is the one in your sig I know why you have .8 CTR. Make sure that the ads are relevant to what you are offering. A scripting site should display ads that interest webmasters. Second you must know that webmasters are a tough crowd as they know the difference between content and ads and normally are more reluctant to click on ads
I have a CTR upcoming to 20% on my websites and it's made only because I've made a website "for users" and started adsense on it and only adsense!!... in just few days I've see that it's important to not inflict with yours ads, only then you will have a high CTR.. and don't make adsense covered in text!! when someone see that he will never click on the add like that.... but it's only my opinion
are you sure? visiting your site, i had the impression your site is all about adsense : nothing but adsense on the horizon. Oh wait, i saw a piece of something on the side that was not adsense, it must have been about scripts then. 80% percent of the surface of your pages is covered by ads. doesn't make people want to hang around
I think you have to be careful with google, I know of two people who recenlty started sites, had a higher ctr that 3% and had their accounts shut down.
has nothing to do with CTR it was probably because they were clicking their own ads. 3 percent is LOW for a good content site.
