3. Positioning of your Adsense advertisement is essential. If you have it at the very bottom of your website, nobody will see it. Because of that, your CTR will drop dramatically, or stay at a flat zero. The trick is to have it above the 'Fold', which is the top part of your website that you see before scrolling down. Placing it in the middle of content also helps. There is a lot of articles on the web on proper ad placement, which can be easily located by Googling 'Adsense Ad Placement.'

Using PHP or SSL (Server Side Includes,) will make the insertion into your pages a lot easier. Most major Content Management Systems and Blog Platforms have add-ons specifically designed to do this task for you, as well. If you are only planning on using HTML for your website, it will become a real pain in the behind to constantly have to copy and paste your Adsense code into every single one of your web pages one by one, so, you probably really do want to use PHP. Even if it is just a little.

Move your ads placement over a block, or changing the colors a few hexadecimal codes. All those little tricks, you'll find, can double, or triple your CTR.
