Great post on ad positioning Darren! I’m going to be fine tuning some of the placements on my websites and this will come in handy.

I’ve been using some of the heat map stuff on my site and experimenting with placement and ad type with adsense. I definitely recommend it.

Here’s an interesting real world example (albeit not a blog). I increased my advertising revenue by 2.5 by redoing my page layout from http://www.vocabulary.co.il/index_old.php to http://www.vocabulary.co.il/. I fattened the skyscraper from 120 to 150, removed some non-producing little ads, and most importantly, added the google adlinks.

I believe that I can probably improve another 50-100% by refining vendors and working the left column more effectively. Suggestions welcome.

Great post once again. I am reading through the entire AdSense optimization series on your blog. Never knew you could do so much in terms of ad placement optimization. Thanks a lot and much appreciated for sharing. Keep up the great sharing.

If you TURN off WYSIWYG editor in admin on wordpress under USERS TAB.. close to bottom.. uncheck box..

YOu can then just insert adsense directly into your posts

BUT and here is the HUGE BUT..

they show up in firefox FINE!!

but in Internet explorer they dont..

SO How the heck darren do you get your ads in your posts to display good in all browsers???

I have had a significant increase in my click through percentage on with Google Adsense after I changed my position of the ads and also the size of the ads. Thanks for all the great tips.

I thought this article was great. Without your guidance Darren, I probably wouldn’t have started my first blog for profit. I remember one of the first articles I read on this site regarding why you started this site (i.e. to help others), and it’s stuck pretty well in my mind. In fact, it’s the reason why I started my second site and series of blogs – to actually help others with good information (my first site is a bunch of commercial blogs about various sports).

Wait – I’m completely off-topic now.

I simply wanted to say your information is really good, and with your help, I’m a 3 digit blogger (in 2 months)!

Alan,

I don’t know if you’re still following this thread, but it worked! I was able to put the AdSense ad inside a table and get it to wrap. Not sure what I did before, but it worked like a charm this time. Thank you so much!

‘thought police’ – thanks for stopping by and expressing your opinion. All I’d ask in future is that you consider not leaving the same comment on multiple posts. While you might feel your comment is relevant on them all my comment spam detector does not and you’ll get yourself banned automatically by doing it.

I’m not sure how to respond to you allegations of me being a ‘waste of human life’ as I have no idea who you are or how you’ve come to that conclusion. I tend to take criticism pretty well from people who try to get to know me and who stand behind their criticisms in person so I guess I’ll just let your comment sit there unanswered.

Feel free to email me any time with your concerns – more than open to dialogue – but if you’re after a flaming comment brawl then you’re in the wrong place.

ohhh, look at me! I made $100,000 by being a marketing devil!

You my friend are a waste of human life. Marketing serves NO useful purpose in human existance other than to turn people into mindless consumers and conformists which will distract them from making any progress on this planet becuase they are too concerned about saving that extra $ or getting the next gen Ipod.

Please cease and desist with your marketing selfishness and do something which is of benefit to the world

I thanks you
