Zero and Low CTR Countries - Interesting Comparison

[HuskyPup]

I was looking through the new Performance Reports > Countries charts and wondered what others' experiences are?

For instance this month I have 68 countries from which I have not earned anything. Ok, some have very low Page Impressions but some do run into the hundreds of pages, however what did jump off the page were really low CTR countries.

I took as the base a minimum 1,000 Page Impressions and by far and away the worst, with several thousand impressions I must also add, has been the Philippines with 0.19%.

Using the same base my best CTR has been South Africa, nothing to brag about though, certainly nowhere half the way to double digits:-(

i block the philippines - are you sure they are real users and not robots/scrapers of some kind?

[HuskyPup]

are you sure they are real users

I'm going by AdSense page impressions therefore have to assume they're real(ish). Israel has a pretty low CTR as well!

@topr8, how exactly are you "blocking the Philippes"?
