    if you have owned them for a while maybe you
    need to change the color of the ads because people
    tend to not pay attention to them if they have seen them
    many times before

    People get used to the ads and dont click them anymore....try color rotation (thats what digital point uses).

    I think alot of people buy proxies that have a high CTR and income and all they expect is to receive the same level of income without maintaining these proxies, just letting them sit there.

    But what they dont realize is that the previous proxy owners put alot of work into making the proxies successful and were continuously changing the adsense layout and color scheme to keep users clicking on the ad's.

    Just note if you buy a proxy that is earning alot from Adsense and has a high CTR you cant just expect to buy it and do nothing with it and it will earn the same, As with any website you need to keep it updated, change the layout, change the adsense colors, this is key to users clicking on your ad's.

    Anyway good luck,

    My CTR dropped compared to last week as well. That's one of the cons for running a proxy, you never know when you will be earning less.
