This http://blog.pelland.com/?tag=banner-ads got me thinking. You guys really were doing a good job. According to that article, the average click through rate is about 0.2%. One of my blogs had about 500% click through a couple of times and each had about 100% click through- so I can see why AdSense thought something was fishy. The article also confirmed my gut reaction- people don't really like banner ads. According to the article, 94% of people dislike banners, just 1% less than the number of people who hate pop-up ads. Wow. So even if AdSense reactivates my account, I probably won't reactivate the ads. I have a hard enough time keeping any semblance of respectabiltiy, I don't need to shoot myself in the foot on top of it. |
