Sure CTR is interesting and has some relevance. But some galleries can produce high clickthroughs, but pathetic revenue. While others can produce comparatively low clickthroughs but great revenue. Ultimately the only metric that matters is which gallery produces the most revenue for a given number of clicks from an identical traffic source.
