Tried everything but CTR so low, help me

Hi All,
I have tried several things but people are not clicking on my ads enough. I get almost 15-20 clicks everyday out of 500-600 page views. Could you recommend what is wrong with my blog? Thank you in advance.

very nice site. how is your daily earning?

 

Not good. In fact very bad. I do not know why but people are just not clicking on ads.

 

I think your problem is your ad's placements.

Soon as i went on your blog , i saw alot of ad's staright away.
I know this is a good idea by putting the ads at the top and making it easier to read and wanting to click.
However this just ruins your clicks by not in the right place. You have many ads , and it's all messy.
Keep your blog clean , don't always put ads next to each other. Change the colour of the text to black instead of green your making it attractive , you want it to blend in with the template. So user's click , so please sort the ads placements and colours and make sure if a person goes on your website make sure they don't click the X.

 

the ads are ugly is why...

 

How long have you had adsense for?

 

@Craig: Since July 2009.
@Thizzle: How do I add aesthetics to adds?
@TK: Could you tell me where should I move the ads?

 

How long do visitors visit your site?
I ever had a problem like this. When I checked, I found that visitors visited my site for about under 1 minute. That's so bad. The chances of click on adsense was bad.
So, I tried to rebuild my site, I tried to optimized my site as it has smaller loading time.
I put two of 300x250 adsense above my articles. I never put adsense at header, I think that's bad thing.
I also put skycrapper at sidebar.
I set my adsense not to show banner ads. People rarely click banner ads.
I did not forget to make my adsense has same color with my theme.
Now, my ctr is increased.

 

The average time of vistors on my site is around 4 minutes.

 

How much unique visitors at this site not page views let me know about visitors, I think if Page views 500-600, so visitors would be max 100-150 and 15-20 clicks on 100 visitors I think fine.

 

I usually get around 200 visitors and 15 clicks is what I get on average. Yesterday I had 218 visitors but just 10 clicks.

 

Tried to change ads a bit but still the CTR is low. around 700 impressions and 10 clicks. Please let me know if you think something is wrong with my template.

 

I must agree that the problem is more on the adsense placement. good design does not necessarily equates to click-magnet template. another thing is that there's too many exit points on your site. The implication of this is that the visitors will have more choices to exit your page and they will probably click on other links rather than your adsense ads.

Of course, I'm talking from the point of view of adsense publisher (which seems to be the purpose of your blog). If you are in affiliate marketing, having your users to go check your other pages would be a great thing.

 

Thanks for the reply, but most of the links are to my blog posts only.

 

try to place some text ads to the top, next to your main tabs, this should drastically increase your ctr

 

It's an ok site. Purchase a domain! I still think placement could be improved.

 

Could you please comment on how to improve the placement? I appreciate your comment.

 

i think you should put image ads. they will be about phone calls. and when i look to you ads (now) they are looking like a ad but that time people will think it is just a part of the content and they will click very relax. Just my opinion.

 

The adsense text line next to your top menu (..Comments RSS Login) should be a little to the left, not the right side sticks out of your menu (tested in Firefox and Chromium).

 

You are right I am trying to get it right.
