NSFW: Critique My Banners! :) (6)

Some first thoughts I got:

You can try to make the picture more blurry, insert the text "are you older than 18?" with two buttons "yes/no".
Try different colors, I would keep it looking as natural on a website as possible. Make it look like it's not an ad, but a part of the website
Who is your target audience? Which country? Might be that another type of women will get more clicks, or even the language.
Also, I would reduce the number of words you use. "Just message to meetup to f*", "View pictures" - feels like too many calls to action. Make it one button only
Try to make it looking like a video with a Play button - you surely will get more clicks

Try different options, and test. As I was already mentioning in one of the threads, for us pure text banners went better than images, and sometimes pure images with no text convert crazy. Depends on your target

Good luck!

Trafficjunky has some CTR problem on some spots, pornhub was the first one to be affected. The bids there dropped too. I have no idea what is going on there, I tried to email them but they ignored my email ... go figure.

Not sure what to think about it.

So you think this could be some sort of technical problem?

I know Im not some Photoshop Wizard, but even throwing up junk I'd like to think you'd still get some ok numbers.

I'm not sure whats going on there, I didn't get any reply from them regarding it. But yes, something changed over there - not sure if they sold large part of the rotation or they changed the way they serve banners ... CTR is lower than it used to be though.
