I've been running some CPA offers on a specific website I just got ranked and it seems from about 200 visitors/day I only can convert enough to make around $5.00/day.

I tossed some adsense up, I thought I positioned it good, but I haven't had 1 click in 2 days with over 350 impressions.

I mean I've gone through so many websites in my niches and I'm doing the exact same thing, is their CTR as bad as mine? lol

Never liked adsense but figured i'd try it..

    I have some sites with 20% CTR and I optimized the BEST ad placement

    I bought a site about computers that was getting 1500 visits per day so I thought OH YEAH BABY 1500 visits at 10% (lowballing) CTR = 150 ad clicks per day. Over the past week it has gotten 15,029 impressions, 64 clicks at 0.43% CTR and that site has the same theme and ad placement as another one getting 20% CTR

    Some niches just convert better then others.

    Is it possible to further hone in on more relevant ads? I'm a little new to the AdSense game, is there something in the interface that will show you a list of ads you're displaying?

    If so, you could try removing some of the ads that just aren't in your specific category. If AdSense doesn't offer you the option, you could always go through manually and try to rule out the sites that are dragging down your clickthrough...

    Are the ads being served relevant? Chances are the problem is one of two issues either relevance or ad placement. Experiment with placement and optimize the site so that the ads are relevant.

    Is design of your site made by your own?
