    Ive got a blog...http://www.unrealmedia.co.uk the traffic is quite good. And from previous experience I think I should be getting more clicks.

    I get on average 0 clicks a day. And I sometimes might get 1 click.

    I dont know what Im doing wrong.

    I thought I might be in the wrong niche. Its a web design/development blog and most people with in interest in web design/development dont look at ads.

    What do you think? Post any suggestions you have..

    The only problem I see is the ad placement. Why not change the ads and mix them with the content rather then in the sidebar.
    Try a 336 rectangle in the post...say below the title.

    You could maybe do some changes to your ad placement.

    There is one at the very bottom of each post. Probably cant see it from the home page.

    Well yeah, what else could we do lol? But what could I change?

    I think it's quite tough being in the web design/development niche. Usually those who knows how to design most probably have in-depth knowledge on adsense as well and thus unlikely to click on ads. But my assumption may be wrong. If I were you, stuck in your situation, I would try out with different stuff.
    Move the ads position down a little bit lower, change it to wide skyscraper or embed it in blog posts. Just try and monitor the progress.
