    Sirjx,

    I don´t give red reps but if I did you would get one for this. Where on earth did you get that from? It´s misleading and untrue.

    Its not true at all. I've known of CTR's for some accounts, not mine of course and no one that I physically know (there, did that help me out of the TOS bind?) much higher than 10 (closing in on 50%) and ads never disappeared.

    Maybe it was a high ctr because of click fraud? I wouldn't be surprised if google flags high ctr and takes a closer look, but there is no ctr percentage where ads stop showing. Make sure you don't have any friends clicking on the ads or have anything that talks about clicking the ads or that clicks help pay for the site, etc. Without knowing the url, it's hard to say. Write google and ask them.

    I think 10% is very low for some, I know one person (Ive seen his when at his house) some of his is way higher than 10%..... ... higher than 50% even.

    And have been for a long time, and he always has ads displayed.

    mine is some where around 6-8%, Considering the traffic my site's get its little low. I think around 10-15% is pretty good and 30-50% CTR is Very high!

    His traffic is very low, average 500-1000 a day uniques, but are all highly targeted to his sites content. I mean probably 90% of the folks that visit him are doing so becuase they are highly interested in the product on that page etc.

    So it sounds to me that my content site with thousands of articles should be getting more than 5% right? I was happy with my current rate but now it sounds like we are severely underperforming.
