It also seems many users now block ads using adblock etc.

What really caught my attention was the older posts – maybe we’re not doing enough to harness their potential. Seems that once it scrolls off our main page they’re usually forgotten.

Rich there are two links to his post above – one is the text ‘Conclusions from tracking ads’ and the other is ‘full post’.

Nick posted that link to answer Dustin’s question. Yep I have Adsense for feeds in my RSS.

That is his site? Maybe I’m really dense, but I still can’t find the post Darren mentioned.

I think regular readers are blind to AdSense ads (they are very popular with people incoming from searches, since they are already looking for something) while they are a bit more in tune to branded ads. By that I mean, if I have an ad up from Nokia for a hot new phone, regular readers would take notice.

But I agree with the post, that is almost cheating if you didn’t find that info out the hard way!

As a blog reader i can say ‘Regular readers tend to be ad blind’ is right for me.So who clicks these ads, only people that come from search engines?
I think this shows fresh and live sites are better.
