    lol, I cannot beat that. You win.

    You should really show your website and ask for advice.

    Nearly all my traffic comes from organic seo, so its targeted :p
    The probalem is not the CTR, the problem is that the majority of those clicks are less than 0.10 :p

    yeah that's pretty low. Good CTR starts at about 1%

    I can beat it - 0.05 lol, and on *two* of my sites I have that CTR.

    Over about 350k impressions combined between the two sites.

    The website is a Character database, people use it for consultation, they will only click links if they stumble on them :)
    Also the majority of the ads have nothing to do with page contents so it can't be helped...

    Clades, I love you! You understand! That is SO refreshing in a place where you're supposed to get $5 CPM for your perfectly tuned MFA site! lol

    That problem I don't have ... on my two really low CTR sites the per-click average is about 50c and $1.70.

    Adsense for search though ... geez ... CTR pushing 10% and per-click lucky to get over 5c.

    Edit: to the last post - its nice to see someone else with the same problem with really low CTR and irrelevant ads :p

    Currently my CTR is 0...I'm not serving google ads anymore, now I can be happy :D

    That's probably the most stupid thing I've heard in my life...

    No, mostly its worst, bleh, I dont care anymore, I'm done with it.

    Ofcourse you'll need 30K views in order to compare, its obvious isn't it? Me saying it was 0 didnt have to do with the low CTR record, I just gave up from adsense, still I leave you the 0,12/30k record for you to beat lol :p
