    Is it so, that all advertisers not do CPM? I have a good CTR Rate, just people perfer to click on banners over text link ads, Yet I get very low $$ from clicks, sometimes a couple of cents, yet on text link ads i get anywhere from 20 to $2.00 a click. Yet where in all this mess is google's cpm, the ablility to pay $0.20+ cents atleast per 1000 banner impressions.

    Should i start blocking sites?

    I agree, my text ads do receive more clicks than image ads.

    It depends on the niche. I find that sites for videogames get more clicks on banners.

    I agree, the niche will make a difference to visitors choices to click on banners or text links.

    For every about 10 text clicks I get 1 banner click. It depends on the niche, but text ads also seem less like advertisements and if you have the right content on your page, text ads help the visitor find more helpful info.

    For me, only text ads work.

    "yet on text link ads i get anywhere from 20 to $2.00 a click."

    Why not only use text ads ?
