Google Adsense Tips and Tricks...

Every single website and its owner have the opportunity to make some great

money by displaying Google Adsense ads on it. Although many webmasters are

making a nice income with these ads, many aren't.

Many people say that all you have to do is put up a website and you'll be

making over $100 a day with Google Adsense. It does sound simple and it is,

but you will need to optimize your site so that you do generate more and more

clicks on the ads that are sitting on your site.

The first thing that you need to do is to Place the Google Adsense ads in the

right spot of the page. This will determine how much money you will make each

day. It is very important that you place the ad at the top of the page (above

the fold) on your website in order to get the most clicks. What this really

means is that you will want to place the Adsense code that Google gives you

high enough on the page so that your visitors do not have to scroll down to

see the Google ads.

If you choose to have the ads right at the top above everything else then do

that. By placing the Google Adsense ads at the top of your website above the

fold, there is a greater chance that people will click on the ad, which will

help your site generate a higher click through rate also known as CTR. The

reason for this is because the majority of your visitors will not scroll down

the page and look at it.

A lot of the time, people look over the top part of the page without worrying

about scrolling down. The way you blend the ads with the rest of your page

can determine if the ad is visually appealing or not. It is very crucial to

make the Google Adsense ads look like your site and not another ad. You can

do this by making the font and color of the ad's text similar to the rest of

the page. I also recommend that you blend the background of the ad with the

background of your page. It should basically have the same color.

Google gives you the option to go into your account and customize your ads in

different fonts and colors. This will help you blend the ads to your site.

Make sure that you don't use the banner ads on your site because this will

decrease your click through rate.

People who visit your website usually try to avoid any banner and picture ads

that they see. If you want to increase your click through rate, you will want

to add text ads. Google gives you that option so use it.

Here are some other small tips to increase your Adsense income:
1. Google has confirmed that using the 336x280 rectangle ad block size does

have the highest click through rate. Using this ad size will increase your

click through rate and the income that you generate.


2. Using a blue underline for the links can also improve your click through

rate. This allows the ads to actually stand out and look clickable.
If you follow the advice given above, you can improve your CTR and make more

money with Google Adsense.
