Very Low CTR. Is my Ads Placement Good ?

Hey. i have a blog which basically covers tech stuff related to Apple, Microsoft, Google, gadgets and some web2.0 stuff.
Its kinda new and its getting a about 200-300 visits per day. But still i am getting VERY VERY less clicks. the CTR is pathetic.

I regularly change the ads position to help it increase. But i dunno much.
So can anyone see and give me any suggestions :-

try image ads only see if that helps

 

that just shows, readers are getting more educated not to click on those ads with the phrases 'ads by google'. I wonder why Google needs to advertise their brand, almost every living creature that can read knows what google is. I wish they just change it to 'Sponsored Links' rather than ads by google.

 

Yes try bigger units I think that the single unit at the top is perfect, the color and place. Try the 720 or 600 any dimension it would work.

 

Float your text around a smaller square at the top of each post and a large square directly after the content. Good luck lad.

 

in my opinion all the differnt options on the site scared me away, i personally couldnt find the ads, so they probably blend in VERY well. try making them stick out a little more

 

I would recommend using bigger ads on your page. I have had success with both image ads as well as text ads but only when I added more/bigger units.

 

I like having the big rectangle above the fold. it gets me a good ctr and payments.

 

Me too having the same prob .. pls check mine too..
hiswat.info - my CTR is around 17%(0.17) last month

 

Ok thanks guys, i will try some big image ads

 

try a 200 4 link unit at the top of the sidebar, use a 300 or 336 ad block at the bottom of your post, and also a 160x600 image skyscrapper in the side bar
