I have been in the adsense program for some time now and I do not receive many clicks. I average around 500 visits a day and average around 3 to 6 clicks a day. Is this common to such few clicks or are my ads in the wrong place? You can view my site here http://www.doyoureview.com. Please let me no if I am doing something wrong because I feel that I am not making the money that I should.
Your adsense code blends in with the rest of the page... it looks good... but doesnt make the ads stand out... you should experiment using other colors for adsense. If I were you I would change the links of the ads to blue, and also the titles. (blue as in the geek's shirt in the pic on top). hope this helps.
I think digitalkev suggestion is true. You need to blend your ads. Another way, you have to make your ads color really different from your page items. Make it more eyecatching.
It is like 0.6% to 1.2% CTR. It is common in adsense. If the CTR is higher than 1%, it can trigger red alert on your account activity. Maintain lower CTR at all time possible and start worrying on how to getting more traffic.
i see only one adsense ads on your site, i think you need to put up more ads on top or in the articles.
