  • What theme are you using, and what size blocks are you using for adsense, what i know about adsense it comes down to themes and where you place the ads
  • i am very new as well to adsense, can you suggest an appropriate theme to maximize adsense purpose. any free theme would be very much appreciated.
  • All 3 are wordpress, 2 with the Gazette theme with 2 blocks of adsense on all pages & 1 is CTR theme which i am told is made for Adsense. (see my sig) Strange thing is a couple of weeks ago they were doing ok.

    • Dude, your getting 40-50 vistirors per day... chillax.

      If you where getting 10,000 visits per day and your CTR was 0.00% then i would be worried. Its perfectly normal for your CTR to be 0.00% with 40-50 visitors per day.

      If you expect even 1% of 50 would click on an ad that would mean that you expect 0.5% of the 50 people that visit you site to click on an ad. That is totally ridiculous.

      Say your site was getting 10,000 visits per day, what is 1% of that? 100 clicks per day.

      Keep working on it bro, for adsense you need huge numbers.
  • You can try to change the color of the text in your ads since you have the default colors. Maybe if you turn the blue title text into green, and the green link text into black. I have less traffic than you, about 20-30 unique visitors/day and I've gotten clicks here and there. Much better than a 0% CTR.


    Also I just noticed you have no adsense ads on you pages/posts.
  • Thanx for your help Guy's!
  • try 300*250 image only

  • Hey, there may be one thing you should think about, first, if you are getting 0 ctr.

    1)Is the KW (market/niche) you are targetting are actually "consumer" type of KWs? If you were a person searching for such a KW, would YOU be likely to click on contextual Ads, such as Adsense?? (it might be not the MARKET as a whole, but the KW, btw. Sometimes.)
    2)Do these KWs have Relevant Adwords advertisers? (on the right of the Google search, with the "location you want to target"-specific, like US/UK, searches)

    Just my 2 cents, of course, and f

    (Of course, it might be just that you were having a few bad days in a row, though)

    Other than that, I just used Google's own tips for "maximum CTR" from the link following:
