click T.R. below 1% is there something wrong in the layout ? please take a look to my computer forum Dario .
Forums have very low CTR, generally. Nothing unusual about a less than 1% CTR. Your placement of ad under freedownload is misleading. Google specifically mentions that ads should not be misleading as forum threads. Take this VERY seriously, one day you might just receive a mail from policy implementation team - that will be the end of it!
my ctr is low as well... its pretty hard. you have to try to blend your ads with everything on the page
I removed the delicious and other bookmarkings from header and added text links ads . let see what happens... i also going to change the ads in the free download frame thanks Dario .
