Re:Can someone explain... (Score 1)

I rarely click on ads (unless I'm searching google for something I want to buy) so I thought no one would click on them. I put ads on my site, to see if they really worked. It turns out that about 1-2% of the visits actually yield a click, but most of those are people who check every time I post. On the other hand, my dad's site is near 5%.

Most of the ad clicks appear to be from casual visitors (e.g. off google or a comment like this)

Neither are high traffic sites, but some people do click the ads.
