Many new websites are born everyday fascinated by the earning potential of Adsense.
Strategic placing of the ad-units are required for publishers to get the most out of their AdSense accounts. Traffic is important for sites trying to make a buck off AdSense.
The first video looks at ad sizes, and Google recommends them big. They suggest using the following sizes:
- 300×250 medium rectangle
- 728×90 leaderboard
- 160×600 skyscraper
Displaying at least one of these ad formats on your page can increase your AdSense earnings potential. So remember, sometimes bigger is better! If you position your ad units well, users are more likely to see these ad formats and find an ad that they’re interested in.
Ad placement is an art rather than a science. I think that’s where a lot of these sites have trouble. If there were a way to just insert ads for maximum clicks, everybody would be doing it, but there isn’t. It takes some creativity and quite possibly experimentation.
As you can see large size ads are more likely to catch the eye, but if they are placed poorly within the site’s design, I doubt that the size will make much of a difference.
The more traffic you get the more ads they will click and the more income you will get. But it’s also about site content to you get the highest-paying ads to your site (earnings per click).
People don’t like blatant advertising, and if it looks too much like an ad they stay away. But if it looks like the rest of the page content – even when they know it’s an ad – they are much more likely to click.
your adsense ads should blend in with the rest of your web page content, for
better click through rates.
I think the blending in would probably create more accidental clicks. The bigger sizes would call attention to the ads so that people who actually want to click on them can easily spot them.
