    nevermind is http://www.pakblogger.com/

    you should use 400*15 ad links with white background so they blend with your site and people think they are part of the site.. also put those ads under each post and leave the big ones in the right side but put more image ads under the categories, try using the video ads they are good :D

    and obviously try to get more traffic and seo your site good luck

    you dont have very goo dad placement. you can move the adsense ad on the top of your sidebar instead of bottom. you can also use a 468 x 60 ad unit on the top of your posts. just play with various ad placements and see whic one generates more clicks.

    I agree with sultanofseo, try different placements and watch closely what happen next. Then you could find the best placements for your blog over time. CTR below 1% constantly is quite low, but it also means that you got big space to improve. Anyway, you've got nice traffic, it is not totally sad news though from this perspective.

    If you can incorporate an a 336 x 280 on the content right itn eh middle of yur article then it can probably give more a Star status and will get more clicks.

    Just my 2 cents

    Use text ads as well as link units above the fold.
    You'll be surprised about the earning from link units.

    Well, my site only has a CTR of 0,80%... now that really sucks, doesn't it. Try different ad placement and test what is the best position.

    If I were you I'd keep trying to build traffic, don't always worry about CTR etc. Higher traffic seems to lead to better ads...then more clicks :)
