Is A High CTR Bad?

    I heard that if you have a high CTR, you can get banned by google?

    One of my pages CTR was 100% , a minute later went down to 50%, I'm quite worried now, only got one click on that page as well! :confused:

    high CTR from TOS violation is bad
    any other types of high CTR is great

    But I mean 1 click shouldn't raise my CTR to 100% should it?
    I'm 100% sure I never clicked my own ad by accident

    well if you had 1 page view and got 1 click it gives you 100%
    don't worry
    if you get more views on that page it will go down more

    If that page was only viewed once and it was clicked once then you get a 100% CTR. I've had pages early in the day that had 400% CTR as the first viewer clicked 4 ads. Later in the day it evened out nicely as more viewed the particular page and the CTR dropped to normal which for me is anywhere from 5 to 10% :)

    You can actually have better than 100% click through rate like 200%, 300% or higher.

    For instance the first visitor visits one page and clicks 2 or 3 adds.

    If you aren't doing anything wrong a high ctr is good.

    obviously for it to change so quickly, you're not talking about a high number of visitors. in any case, as long as you're not violating the tos, you'll be fine!

    High CTR means your adsense ads are well placed.
