I'm just wondering I have noticed that whenever google decides to add new PSA ads my click thru rate that day falls down. Is this a normal thing usually and is it likely that most of the day PSA ads are shown to my surfers instead of the targeted ads related to my website? Just wondering cause its like a pretty big drop in the CTR so a little concerned. Any feedback appreciated!

I filter those things out and keep stats on it but I would imagine the amount of PSA's will vary considerably by site so I don't know how useful any stats would be from one person to the next. Best if you track them yourself and see. I was quite suprised and am glad I trap them ;-)

Don't know for sure how many ways to do it. I do it from the server so I know what's going on. I guess I'm a control geek :-)

Huh? How could you filter PSA ads from the server? Aren't the ads called by the client's browser (with Javascript)?
