    Hello

    I have a forum (www.lancer-evo.net). And I only get 3-4 clicks. Are my ads placement any good? Any suggestion would be really appreciated:)

    I don't think forums makes as much as blogs or websites. Your add placement seems decent mabye you can replace the top box adds with a banner ?

    Mabey you could try placing a link unit in between the posts you have. In my experience having huge ads at the top of the page puts people off.

    Forums don't have high CTR.

    Anyway, I think ad units of the top, you need to change their background color.

    Try different ad units and try different ads placements.

    Yeah forums don't pay much for the number of impressions they get. Your best best is to try new things, as i see you tried blending your ads, what about trying to make them stand out. I don't say it will work better, but it's worth a try.
    Also you could try one image ad and one text ad on top of your pages, car lovers might be more interested by image ads!
