    I have had Adsense on my site for about 6 months now. My earnings have increased as traffic has grown, but my CTR is still the same. I am tried a lot of combinations of colors/placements/themes etc and haven't really seen any bump.

    Was hoping some advice from the crew at DP might provide some new ideas/direction

    The link is in my sig.

    Thanks!

    The problem with your ads is that they are placed on the site of the site where viewers aren't concentrated on. I would try 250 x 250 ads in your content area, they'll get noticed more.

    Yep agreed. The skyscrapper is okay if it's doing good, but try something in the content.

    Also the amazon ads is getting difficult on the eyes :(

    I think it will be better to move your ad from right to left. The hot spot is located on the left side. I do not know whether it is my browser problem, it seems that your content is messed up as I see half content and blank until with the picture of a sexy lady lying down, has moved to the bottom.

    Yes. I see that you have moved the ads to the left. So how is the CTR? You have also blend the color with your theme, that is good. It should help to increase your CTR.

    Any changes in CTR?
