I think colour combination and place of Ads play big role to earn better. Please see my website ( Agranews), you can get better idea.

Good luck

Hi Darren, let me first say that I am now blogging because I saw an article on you and thought..”I can do that!” I appreciate all your information/advice. I have four blogs created through blogger/blogspot but the layouts only let me place ads down the right hand side or across the bottom of the page. How can I move ads to the hot spots you mention?

I have made all posible add position as you explain. Based on my experience, they add is appreciated with low per click (CPC) (adsense ads) if we lay the add captivate. For my case, I laid them between the Title Post and Author Box.

Would someone here can make me know why it appreciated with low cpc?

I have tried put the adsense in the bottom of my posts because I thought logically people will only want to click on ads after they have read the content. I was completely wrong. Now I tried your method of putting the ads on the left side for a few days and it seems the click through is increased a bit. So let's wait to see how this turns out. But I don't know if any one experiences this or not, but my adsense ads appear differently on Firefox and Explore. There is a lot of white space below the ads. I tried to fix it but couldn't. I will just have to check around this blog to see if Darren has mentioned anything about it. Sherry Love Sherrylove.net

My blog is still young (1 month) however, I’ve been noticing that I’ve been getting more hits as of late (mainly due to keeping fresh content and making at least one new post a day). The one thing that was not improving though was my adsense earnings.

After reading this post, I moved a few ads around and changed a few designs and ended up placing a 4 link adsense unit to the upper left hand corner of my page.

LITERALLY OVERNIGHT, I noticed a 300% increase in ad clicks! Seriously, I was amazed. Now, keep in mind we are not talking about a lot of clicks here (roughly 4 clicks daily to 12 so far today), but, I can not believe the jump in performance!

Thanks Darren!!

I tried your advice as soon as I finished reading your article. Positioning my google ads in the hotter areas has made a marked difference in my revenues already! Thank you for the great advice and congrats on the book.

The Adsense group at groups.google.com has been very helpful to me. The best advice from the Adsense moderators is to use a variety of ads in your site. You have to be careful though, because too many ads will cause your CPM to go down. A lot. I know from experience as I recently overhauled the advertising on my blogs by REDUCING the number of ads, and I have seen my CPM rise dramatically.

For those new to Adsense, I would recommend creating custom channels based on placement, colors, etc. and then test which channel is the most effective. It’s great way to maximize your Adsense revenue.

I’ve moved my ads around so many times and it still does not do me any good. The trickle of traffic I get -regardless of how well or how often I post is not clicking on ads. At this point I’m not even posting that much because the impressions mean nothing without the clicks. Adsense member since 2005 and I have never even got a single check.

My opinion – want to make money with adsense? Post on your blog about making money with adsense. It’s the only thing fellow bloggers seem to read.

I am going to look at my ads today!

I will see what needs to be changed and see what happens to my earnings.

I am not sure how to place ads in the sidebar with wordpress but I will look into it.

The positions of my ads is currently set to roaming within the first three posts of the blog but I will set it to top or middle to see what changes I manage to get.

Cheers!

Positioning of adsense ad is very important and crucial step in order to switch as a full time blogger.

What I experienced is that the ad formats and ad position matters most for more revenue.
300×250 medium rectangle
250×250 Square
336×280 large rectangle

These are well performing ad units. Use text and image ad formats for all these units.

Keep on experimenting till you get best results.
experiment for some days like at least for a week to conclude the result..

These are some of the tactics that could bring you double Adsense income.

If you want more tips to position these ad units you can read this below post and can comment your experience:
