Hi, i thought my CTR is good, but then i discouverd the Digital Point board and now i think my CTR is toooooo low (around 1%). So i want too ask you about my ad placement. Heres a picture of my site: It's a german flash tutorial site, where you can lern macromedia flash. It's for webmasters. I have made a picture because if something change on my site the picture is already up to date. PS: Is the head over the banner ad OK or have i to delete that because of the TOS?
Hi There, I’m not an adsense expert but on a few of my sites I’m getting between 3.5% and 8% CTR per day. The positioning and integration of your ads looks good, however... One thought I have on you low rate is that people surfing for Flash tutorials are likely to be much more web savvy than the average user, therefore less likely to click on any type of ad. I know that when I’m looking for photoshop/flash/CSS info I’ll look at 20+ sites looking for information but never click on the ads. Perhaps you should try another niche that’s more commercially orientated than free tutorials and compare the results. Hope this helps
That is an excellent point about the niche market differentiation. Possibly when i graduate from a peon to a newbie I can have one of you guys help me...Will keep in mind advice offered to this person..
