    Hey I am having a very low CTR on a website that gets a decent amount of traffic. I was wondering if there were any critiques from the experts on what I could do better. Thanks

    I did not see any text link ads... maybe you can try putting some into your posts. It helps for my other blogs :)

    Try to put ads above your posts.

    Where is your traffic from?
    if its from social bookmarking sites dont even expect higher CTR.

    My traffic is mostly organic and coming from search engines. Also coming from street level marketing campaigns with flyers, etc. Do text ads seem to work better? I just don't want to put any text ads on my sidebar because i would rather lose a few dollars a day then have the site not look good

    I took my 728x90 banner from the bottom and added another 250x250 text link square below my featured video and my CTR went up significantly
