Better AdSense Colour Combination

First of all I should thank Rozer for sending this great trick and also I should congratulate him for his first AdSense check. Lets move to the trick.

Trick is quite simple. User a high contrast colour for the AdSense ad Title.

I found colours between #0033CC to #0000CC works great specially with a light background (white) blog or website. It high lights the links and able to catch the visitors eyes. I have noticed positive results after applying the changes. Border and Background I will always blend with the website template.

You can always experience with colour combination and if you haven't try it make sure use some contrast colours for the title. ( Not too contrast :) )

God please helps me to get $100 per

"Om! AdSense God please helps me to get $100 per day from AdSense formula." I asked the AdSense god.

AdSense God chuckle and said.

“Are you challenging my powers? Create a website with 1000 page impressions and add my ads to it. Also, remember to get 10% click through rate. Cost per click should be $1. You will see $100 per day income in your AdSense report.” [AdSense Calculator]

I replied  

“But how can I achieve this? I am lost. “

“Page Impressions, Click through Rate and cost per click. That’s it??”

AdSense God disappears in thick smoke.

Great, we have built an AdSense friendly blog and discussed couple of simple methods to bring instant traffic to your blog and then we add AdSense ads to the blog.

Let us discuss couple of hacks tricks and tweaks we can try. Before we start, I should mention that I am not AdSense god. I am a blogger just like you, struggling achieving the $100 per day goal. I am sharing my AdSense experience in this blog.

Tip 1

Use the blog text and background colours for the AdSense ads. Also, remove the AdSense ad borders by making it same colour as background. In another word, blend the AdSense ads. This method always worked for me. This tip able to gave me better click through rate. However, that dose not means that blending is the one and only method that works. Try complement and contrast ad units as well.

Tip 2

Add a single AdSense ad unit blended with the blog post content. I always add it close to the blog post title. It always increases the click through rate for me. Again, remember that your blog post title should not confuse the reader to click on the AdSense advertisements. That is one of the best positions to place large square ad.

Tip 3

Add a link unit in the header section. Always be creative but remember to stay with AdSense TOS. It is effective to add a link unit before, after the header banner, or close to the menu bar of your blog.

You can also try AdSense link unit in the footer of your blog as well.

I only discuss three simple AdSense tips to increase my AdSense click through rate.

Bonus tip: Always test only couple of (one, two, or three) AdSense tricks at once. 

How to get more clicks (income) from Adsense

First of all before I start this post I must say this is totally base on what I have gone through so far and what I have experimented. I have notice even though the Page Views and Website Visits increased income was not increased proportionally. Actually it should not be. Anyway I thought I should have a close look on the behaviour of the visitors.

Couple of things I can think of

    I have not optimise my AdSense Ad placement

    I have not choose the proper colour combination

More than that the blog I was using AdSense ads doesn't seems to attract people who likes or people who will click on Ads. If I make it simple. People who knows the secret behind the Google Ads or any other advertisement will not or hardly click on the Ads as they know it will direct them to a some kind of product or service that you have to buy as there is no reason why you will spend money on advertising unless you gain something out of it. Another reason can be they know that if they click on the Ad it will add some revenue to the website/blog owner. Also most of the time you might have bad experiences by click to funky attractive banners. 

One main category which falls into this category is Computer gigs. They always looking for free stuff and they know how to get it from Google search or any other way. They know how to filter content from Ads. They always try to skip the Ads even though Ads are base on the content. 

At the end of day it is just another Ad.

I think it is really important to select a topic that target group of people who is excited about links and banners. According to my experience I think this is a major factor but that doesn't mean that you should stop blogging or creating web on such topics.
