    Just wonder if there is an ad unit that can constantly achieve 10% ctr, will it been treated as fault or cheating by google?

    That was my first post on DP....stupid post indeed :D ....

    I can asure all who are new to adsense - Google doesnt care what your CTR is.... you may have 50% CTR...but as long as you arent doing anything wrong .. you have nothing to worry...

    I had a high CTR at that as I hadnt put adsense on all pages... it has come down a lot now.

    I have an ad that runs 13-14% CTR. The only problem I have is how to spend all that cash it generates :)

    Sounds like you are making a decent amount from it. Anything over 10% is great for me.

    If ad content is what exactly a user is looking for. CTR could be much higher than 10%.

    I've got a couple of sites with 17% and even 27% ctr, has been like that for about 4 months now and no problem at all.

    Only too bad I only have about 30 visitors/day per site...
