I’ve changed the font for some of my Adsense unit, but yet to see the increasing of clicks, still maintain the same. But I don’t care about these, as long as there is no decreasing on the number of clicks haha!

Regards,
Lee

It is kinda funny how Google can spend so much money on development but can be so slow to implement what someone outside the company thinks would be good.

Thanks for the heads up Darren. Google should have done this long time back but then better late then never.

Working on many of your Adsense tips. Trying this new feature from Adsense is something I am looking forward to.

Keep up with teaching us how to use Adsense more effective on our blogs.

Cheers..

Seems to me that Google guys will bring a lot changes in coming days. They are also feeling the heat of less earning.

Lets hope … we will be able to earn more like earlier.

Yes, this new technique of Google Adsense has been the talk-of-the-town today. But I am not really amazed although it may help a bit.

I think they can do better next time around.

Thanks for sharing though.

That is great! It never looks good when a site has its advertisements in a totally different font type than the main text.

I have just received an email from Google Adsense regarding this feature. Great news for me. At least I could tweak the ads a bit. =)

Well it’s good news and should help with ad blending but I’d really like to see some more significant updates from AdSense.

It would be very nice to change fonts of adsense ads. Lets see how can I utilize it for my blog.

@Gray thanks for your info and the forum thread. It was informative.

*looks at the calendar* 2009. It’s almost been 6 years since it was launched and this is just now becoming a feature?

I mean don’t get me wrong I love Google as much as the next person but doesn’t that strike anyone else as off? ;)

@TYCP Entertainment Magazine: Yup, this was available for the premium publishers for a very long time!

It’s kinda odd that now that we have this feature, almost all the comments on the official AdSense blog is about that people needs a new font, of course without a thanks for the feature. Wait, this is not an odd thing! That’s how humans are :)

Anyways, seemingly this feature was requested by the Webmasterworld users. An AdSense insider (AdSenseAdvisor) asked them to create a list with the top 5 features they’d like to see in AdSense and this was one of the non-official and probably the only well-thought feature request. Here’s the thread if anybody is interested: http://www.webmasterworld.com/google_adsense/3790002.htm
