One of my web site management accounts has the following monthly traffic data: Site Traffic 11,216 visitors, 27,481 page views, 2,452 searches and 474 clicks for the month of May 2010 producing a CTR of 4.23% and revenue of $73.75. The metrics should be running at a million visitors, 2,700,000 page views, 240,000 searches, 40,740 clicks and at least $7,375.00 in monthly revenue. Horrible!
