3,000 PV...but no clicks...Any advice?

[castilloa]

My site is www.freelegalinfo.org. I'm getting about 3,000 steady page views the last 3 months, but no clicks with Adsense ads.

I'm new to this, and this is my first try at monetizing. I would appreciate any advice or suggestions.

Thanks!

Thats mostly coz your ad placement is too apart from your content. Its very distinct.
This isn't really illegal, but you need to integrate the ads a bit more closely with your content so that the ads looks part of the content. Not too much also.

You need a better template that will help you with your CTR. As mentioned above, your ads need to be a little more integrated with your content.

Go to flippa and see some of the sold sites, how much revenue they were making through adsense and see what kind of templates they're using to get an idea.

The site doesnt load right for me. some of the stuff that belongs on the top is cut off and on the bottom. I would bounce through that site giving a view, but no click.

Could be that people are looking for FREE legal INFORMATION and don't respond to ads.

It's more likely that your traffic stats are off.

Also most of your page views could be junk - you need to see what is generating them.. raw server stats for page views is VERY VERY misleading if that's what you are using. If you look you'll see lots of self references - crawls from Russia and China and everywhere in between. I don't know where you think 3,000 page views are coming from? Type In? I don't see much of an internet presence at all in a pretty competitive field.

Setup something like Google Analytics and try again. You'll get a better idea of who is visiting, how long they stay etc. Just looking at views makes it pure guesswork. I'd be shocked if you were getting anywhere near 3000.

I would NEVER trust revenue/traffic from ANYONE who is SELLING a site.. let alone somewhere like Flippa. Personal view.

I didn't spend much time on this so excuse me if I'm wrong.. but if you can verify traffic you might included that information here to help diagnosis if that's the case.
