    Advertising (learn more)

    Advertise virtually anything here, with CPM banner ads, CPM email ads and CPC contextual links. You can target relevant areas of the site and show ads based on geographical location of the user if you wish.

    Starts at just $1 per CPM or $0.10 per CPC.

I could use some help with this one.

    Ok Ok, I'm not ashamed to admit that I am still relatively new to this whole adsense game.. :D

    That said I am wondering if you all feel that my ad placements could be better on Arcade Cow dot com.

    If you are an expert in this field, please pm me as I am open to paying someone to perform a full optimization/analysis and re - work of the ad placement.

    Any one else, feel free to submit your ideas here.

    Thanks!

    I just see a Google search box. Your Adsense must be placed well cuz I don't see them at all.

    I initially had them in the locations now occupied by clickbank ads and they would rotate. I also had them in the header along with the pixels ad. However, my ad script crashed and we had to fix. In the mean time, I decided to keep the other ads there, as the google ads weren't getting a decent CTR.

    However, there are still ads found on the game pages in the form of a text link box (on top of game), below the game in the form of a 468x60 text banner AND below the game on the right hand side in the form of a 250x250 text/image banner box.

    AHHH, I'm a dork.
    I like the setup. Especially the Ads in the "game details" section.
    I think that most people will be interested in playing the games instead of reading the ads though.
    Wish you success and I wouldn't change a thing. Just my opinion.

    you have got a nice ad placement and blending too! I don't think I can suggest a better ad placement for your site at this moment. Good work!

    I don't know if you made any improvements, but your site is very well structured and the ads don't desturb the visitor. very good job.
