    Impressions/No of clicks = CTR. CTR varies with the niche. For targeted niche sites (like dry hair scalping treatments), the CTR can go upto 80%. For less targeted sites like (hair treatments), the CTR can go upto only about 20%. There is a rumor that CTR above 7% can get your account disabled. In reality, only fraud traffic and clicks can get your account disabled with regard to CTR.

    Good luck on your journey with adsense.

    CTR is basically the amount of clicks you get in relation to your impressions (the amount your ads are shown).

    It is then calculated IMP/CLICKS = CTR

    That's right. Many of the publishers average about 5%CTR. If your niche is good and traffic is terrific, you can make a windfall income through adsense :)

    CTR = Click/impression X 100%
    Example, your have 1000 impression and 15 click, then your CTR = 15/1000X100% = 1.5%

    CTR = Click-Through Ratio
    It is the % of how many clicks an ad received..

    it's all depends on the niche you are into. in some a CTR of 2% is considered way high than others where you have a ctr of over 5%. Focus on how much you make per click rather thank ur CTR.
