Proxies R Us - Ad placement thoughts?

What do you guys think of my ad placement? Currently... I am getting... well, 0-5 clicks a day. And I have 500+ uniques a day.

What is the url for your site?

 

you have forgotten the link

 

Oops!

Thanks!

 

Have you seen your site in Internet Explorer. It is all messed up.... On firefox looks good and opera..... Unfortunately, the ads on your site don't look too tempting to click. They are probably too related to what your site already does......

 

yes and you should also place an ad in the center

 

Hey I have seen it in IE, and I don't know how to fix it. I'm still looking into it.

How can I make them look tempting?

Where in the center? I think that is a good idea

 

I've made a centered ad above the proxy function!

 

Hi,

I would recommend a link unit either on the top of the page or at the bottom. It may perform better by placing it at the bottom near the bottom row of text links.

In addition, you may want to consider placing another skyscraper ad below the left vertical menu. Be sure to blend the ad, so that the text and links match the navigational menu.

Hope that this helps.

 

Hi

Thanks, that did help. But I was a little confused:

I don't understand why I would want to place a link unit on the bottom of a page? Wouldn't that do bad click-wise?

 

Thanks for your prompt reply.

I recommended the bottom because:

- The style of the bottom row of text links would match the AdSense ad style, so you are blending the ad into the navigation system

- Placing a row of link units on the top does work. However, I would encourage you to change the style of the top row of links on the site to match the style of the AdSense ad. By making the link units appear as part of the site navigation, you are getting more visitors to click on them

Hope that this helps.

 

Thanks man you've taught me a lot!

 

Just two little things id recommend, center the 468*60 unit at the top you have, and place the same one above the 'Browse Website Safely' button. Also remove the 'advertise on this site' text, you can do this in your adsense setup

 

Ah, thanks VERY much for that advice terryuk!

 

you're not supposed to remove jaykay's design copyright and the footer link

 

So you get 0-5 clicks a day, and 500+ uniques a day? You do know those are the same thing right? clicks and uniques are interchangable. Unless you ment clicks and impressions.

 

I meant impressions* but I do have 500+ uniques

Thanks for the info alexisthemovie and Rouier
