Things to Look When Placing AdSense Ads

One of the biggest you can make when placing AdSense ads on your
pages is placing TOO MANY ad units on a single page!

Besides how this SCREAMS to visitors that you are begging for them
to help you make some income, it is not productive for other
reasons too.

In all my testing, and from my research, it is obvious that less is
more when it comes to better producing AdSense pages. Why is this?

First of all, the most important determining factor for people
clicking your ads is how long they are spending on your site in the
first place. When someone comes to a site which looks to be boring
or simply full of ads, their response will be to click the back
button and NOT one of your AdSense ads.

If your content is compelling and keeps a visitor on the site
longer, they will be more likely to click an AdSense ad. The space
you use showing all those many ad groups could better be spent
featuring valuable content which the visitor will find interesting.

Secondly, Google is all about making money for Google. If you only
select to have one ad group on your page, Google is more likely to
populate that group with higher paying ads. If you have multiple ad
groups on one page, Google will be forced to fill the many groups
with some very low paying ads. Therefore, the average value of
clicks on that page will be diluted by those lower quality ads.

Don't blindly trust this advice though. Testing is vital! Carefully
record your clicks and earnings for a page over time. Then modify
it (move or delete some ad groups) and let it run until you have a
few hundred or so clicks again; record these and compare with the
previous format. Then modify it and test again! Continued testing
is KEY!

Howdy would you mind letting me know which hosting
company you're utilizing? I've loaded your blog in 3 completely different
internet browsers and I must say this blog loads a lot faster
then most. Can you recommend a good web hosting provider at a reasonable price?
Kudos, I appreciate it!

Have you ever considered about adding a little bit more than just your articles?
I mean, what you say is fundamental and everything. However just imagine if you added some
great graphics or video clips to give your posts more, "pop"!
Your content is excellent but with images and video clips, this blog could definitely be one of the very best in
its field. Awesome blog!

My programmer is trying to persuade me to move to .
net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the costs.
But he's tryiong none the less. I've been using Movable-type
on various websites for about a year and am worried
about switching to another platform. I have heard great things about blogengine.
net. Is there a way I can import all my wordpress content
into it? Any help would be really appreciated!

Having read this I believed it was rather informative.

I appreciate you taking the time and energy to put this content together.
I once again find myself personally spending way too much time both reading and commenting.
But so what, it was still worthwhile!

I was wondering if you ever considered changing the structure
of your website? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.
But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so
people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having 1 or two pictures.
Maybe you could space it out better?
