What is your Adsense CTR?

[tubeyak]

Mine is quite low and I wanted to know how other sites were doing in terms of click-through-rates.

Mine used to be very very very low, like .05%.. My average now is about .50 to .75%.

I forced it to use only image ads in my sites header instead of text ads. It is a gaming site and most of the users are relatively young, so I figured I cater to the niche and it works nicely.

[tubeyak]

hmm. Mine is way lower than that. I guess I have to find a way to cater to my users.

[zerk]

Most of mine are from the header. Try what I did, use only image ads on the top header. If they see a graphic they may be more inclined to click.

Also, be sure to use a few spots for adsense. lastly, don't only use adsense, have some other income steam as well.

I'll give that a try. Thanks for the suggestion. Any suggestions for other income streams?

[zerk]

Depends on your niche. For t.v. sites... I am really not sure, maybe find and use auctionads and sell dvd's or other type stuff or series of t.v. shows?

Auctionads works with like ebay and stuff, go ahead and search that as well.

I have an average of .04%, but I don't really care, as I have many visitors and the income is exceeding my expectations

[zerk]

Putting even a little effort can increase your earnings by at least 10 fold... It would be worth putting in an hour to do so.

Selling dvds as a referrer is an idea that I have not thought about yet. Thanks. Any others?

Mine average just under 1%.

It used to be 4% when you were allowed to have images next to the ads.
