Default Really low CTR and eCPM

Hi

I'm getting visitors to my blogs but I'm finding the CTR is very, very low and so is the eCPM compare to my sites that aren't WP blogs and aren't part of the challenge.

Is anyone else experiencing this? The ads are pretty targeted - at least to the main topic. Maybe less so to the long tail but that's no different from my other sites.

Would be interested to hear others experience with this.

Best Wishes
Gillian

Gillian usually the traffic early on is from article submissions and what not, I usually find the ctr to be lowish on that type of traffic.

As soon as you start getting real search engine traffic the ctr goes through the roof in most cases.

A.k.a I dont usually get less then 25% ctr on those types of sites.

Regards
Marc
