    The one at the top of the post needs to be blended, You can aslo add 1 more ad unit after posts.

    BTW, Which adunit got those 4 clicks?

    Better blended your ads and add 1 more ads after post.
    It's also much better to change your ads after title with 300 x 250 ads.

    Freckly speaking, your ads optimization is not good enough, the ads placing at the side bar is being ignore.
    Try to add one rectangular ads and blend your sidebar ads

    The best format Ive found so far on information blogs is to add a block 320 before the post, you can blend it. Also moving the sidebar from right to left will improve, but requires lots of html skills.
    Also if you can tell me which wordpress theme is that? Looks awesome. ;)

    it is too low mate. you probably buy your own traffic isn't it. because it is unusual for organic traffic to get such a low CTR. try to attract them more by creating a good articles

    The ad is obviously ad-looking. Try to wrap your ads with your post. I mean like this one, the link below.

    Just play with colors and ad positions.! Sometimes color of the ads play a great role, speaking from my experience!
