    ok, adsense revenue has plummeted. I used to use the big rectangle ads where the small vertical ones now are in my posts. That wasn't working, neither is this. Anyone have any ideas?

    It is still low traffic, and I'm working on that, but at the moment I'm getting 0 clicks per day :(

    EDIT: the site I'm talking about is the first one in my sig. Any tips for the forum ads would be appreciated as well, but I'm not too concerned about them, since the forum is still on the ground

    Make it so that users don't have to scroll down to see ads, maybe by putting ad links across that empty white line where your Home | About/Contact/Etc..

    Ok, that sounds good. Do you think a link unit bar, or a banner? I already have a link unit in the sidebar, but I'm happy to change anything..

    Banner would probably be better so that it doesn't mess up your page.

    I'm going to start using as sense now but, in my opinion, I'd make the adsense more visible, blend it into the layout. Make people see it, but in a good design sense. Because the first time I clicked on your music review site I scrolled down and missed the blank white box of adds.

    Do you mean the one up the top of the page, with the menu? maybe I'll make the background the colour of my sidebar - what do you think of that?

    when I opened ur forum, the quarter of the page was covered by ur huge logo image. It shudnt be this big. lessn its height so as the ads show up directly to the eyes when someone visits it.

    Do you mind taking a screenshot to show what you are seeing? I have a bad feeling it isn't my theme :(. I guess it doesn't look like this? (attached)

    On another note, adding that top banner is already paying off. I think the border/background looks pretty good too - what do you reckon? Blended, but not invisible :)
