CTR is worse then hell,..any idea why?

[Mike]

i have most of my domains parked at ND - NameDrive, like most of us. i've been trying to optimize the page as much as i can, i seem to drive a bit more traffic now, however my CTR is down to 4.31%, which leaves me with about $0.67.

Even though i get traffic, the 67c is not increasing, which has to do with the value of the adwords.
However, my CTR is what concerns me. How can i facilitate a higher CTR, or should i just take the site out of NameDrive and make it a mini site/ affiliate site and hope that my traffic, average of about 10-15 uniques/ day is going to make me some cash this way? (adsense and affiliate links)

Any help is appreciated, as i am about sick of banging my head against the wall.

Thanks!

Namedrive Sucks!

I tried them out last week with a domain that gets 250-300 uniques a day at sedo, moved it to namedrive and it only showed less than 100 visits a day with only 4 clicks at 3 cents.

First day back I Sedo my Visits are right back up with a way better CTR and 21 cents a click.

Maybe you could try 1Plus.net.
Their parking system uses pages that are like Mini-Sites and you can customize a great part of it. All that improves CTR like it did for me with my first few sites, as they are still on beta, I guess, and improving.
I liked NameDrive but I have to agree with Kamloops that CTR there is not the best as well as the number of visits that is quite strange, for lower.
Try it and let us know.

Kamloops I TOTALLY agree with you!!!
EVERY TIME I give NameDrive another "shot" I get a little revenue in the beginning and then it drops down to RIDICULOUS levels!!!
...
I SERIOUSLY don't know what ALL THE HYPE about Namedrive is!!!???
Who cares that they have "nice" landing pages!!!
Their payments are crap!!!

P.S. And if you want REALLY NICE AND FUNCTIONAL Landing Pages go to 1Plus.NET!!!
