    Hello everyone,

    This is the first forum I've joined that isn't specifically graphic design related :)

    I have just started up my first Adsense project with no real idea of what I'm doing. I read a few bits of advice here and there - mainly from the Adsense help site.

    Anyways my domain is http://www.stemplate.com

    Could anyone have a look and tell me if it looks acceptable placement-wise and if there's anything I can do.

    Also my clicks are valued at a few cents each and my CTR is 1.68% on average. I know this is bad but I don't know how to resolve it.

    Looks very good to me, well blended!

    Likely, your targeted audience are mostly web/graphic designers. They are already aware about the 'ads' thing so you can expect for a high CTR with your niche.

    Good luck.

    Ah a reply! I was becomming dubious as to whether I'd get one.

    Can you explain how my audience being aware of the Ads is likely to give me a high CTR?

    I'm pleased the blending is good :)

    I think placing adsense link ad in the header is profitable (728X15).
