Lotsa AdSense experts suggest putting the ads within your content, ie, in between paragraphs about Jennifer Anniston, you'd have, say, a 468x60 ad, so that it fits right in with the content and *looks* like content (if you've done the colors right).

However, that's more likely to work when a site's topic is very narrowly-focused, ie, grooming your German shephard. Your subjects are all over the map (it's the nature of the beast you've chosen) (which is great, BTW; I find your site interesting and fun). What you need to do is to experiment: try putting 'em within the aritcles as I've suggested, and see whether your CTR increases. If it goes down, then try different colors. If it goes up, then try different colors and place 'em on the left vertically. If it goes up yet again, keep it where it is, but try different colors yet again. See what I mean? Keep trying something slightly different, tweaking a little bit, and watching in which direction the clicks go. Ideally, you wanna make 'em go up. They're not gonna go up forever, so keep fiddling until you've reached some point at which you can't seem to make 'em go any higher and then stop there.

Oh, and don't just fiddle with the ads themselves; try fiddling with the typeface on the page, its size, the main colors on the page, and so on. You may discover that orange'll net you more clicks than that geranium pink. Who knows? (You don't, until you try! ;-)

Good luck!

Make all your links (anything you will click-on) match with the adsense links. Or, make the adsense links match your on-site links. Color, size, font...etc. But, make sure the all the links are obvious. Experiment.

How many pageviews do you think are enought to start experimenting.. i mean.. how many vageviews should one be getting to know if there was a significant change in the clicks?

funguru · 08-17-2006, 06:40 PM

I wouldn't count by page views, but by CTR, unless your page views are just in the double digits or low triple digits. You hafta get some trafffic first before you have any meaningful numbers to play with.
