turns out everyone was wrong - but thank you anyway for the replies.. i put in custom channels to find out what was happening and 90% of the adsens clicks are comgin from the 728x15 links ads at the top of the page on the hondatraderonline.com. probably beacuse there is no navigation bar on that site. 60% of the adsense clicks on celicatraderonline.com are coming from the 728x15 links also..
ok this comment i have to laugh at.. i have a mustang site that uses the same theme as the celica site and it has been the #1 ranked mustang site for over 5 years and is way ahead of autotrader when it comes to mustang searches.. so it's not the theme.. although i know the honda site needs an updating..
