Blogspot CPC problems (Adsense)

[wladimir]

Hi, all! As a SEO newbie and a first time poster on this forum I want to ask for a piece of advice. Recently (about 25 days ago) I added Adsense for my blog pcmuzika blogspot com (not a spam, just asking for help). Experimenting with different positions and Ad formats I can't make more than 0.2% CTR. Can you take a look on my blog and tell me what I should do in order to get better Adsense earnings? Is there some SEO mistakes made by me, low number of backlinks or false Adsense strategy? Should I use some trusted CPM network and if it's possible, which one (100-120 unique visitors daily)? Thanks in advance.

I like the 1 block in the side column but have you tried changing the colors up? Perhaps white background. (Don't think having 2 big blocks in side column is that good.

Also try adding a big block or even a 468 block at the end of the blog post or beginning. People will read the blog post and end up at the bottom of it and perhaps you can get better converts with a block in there. I've made the most money from using this size: 300x250 compared to the 468 block I have on my blog as well.

Thanks. I'll try it now.

What annoys me with your adsense ad's is the link unit in the blog posts. Remove that so your content wraps around the big block better. This what I have on my blog posts.

Remove the other link unit in your blog posts that's at the bottom and put the 468 adblock at the end. People will read the full blog post and with the bigger ad showing, it may get more clicks or even have a better CTR. I have this format as well on my blog.

You could even remove the 768 ad block in the header and put a big block in the side column. One way to increase your CTR is actually just removing some ad blocks and changing the location's.

Do you have adsense channels created for each ad block and have that block targeted? This article can help you out with that. http://support.google.com/adsense/bi...&answer=160534

My suggestion's above are only suggestions from looking at your blog. I'm not saying that your CTR will be 3 times better after the changes but I think the adsense ads would look more blended in on your blog. The content is more important then sticking ad's all over the place.

One adsense unit below your post title and one below the post itself should increase your ctr

And then One Skyscrapper at your sidebar
