Review of my site and its ad-placement -- Need tips!

Hello Everyone.

Let me start off by saying i make a good amount of money a day from Google so this isn't a big issue for me, but if i could be making more like everyone is telling me i can then i need some help to do so. I currently get about 60-70-80 dollars a day from Google and 100+ on Friday, Saturday and Sundays.

I get about 11K+ users to my site a day with about 1000-1500+ clicks a day at about 5-7 cents a click. I think my ad-placement is off because my friend has a site like mine gets less than half my users and still makes the same amount of money as i do.

I talked to him about it and he said my ad-placement blows so if anyone got some suggestions for my site and the ad-placement please let me know so i can raise the money per day + clicks.

I would take a look at your friend's site and place my ads more like that site. your ads are a little hidden, which can be good, but I could see moving the up a bit to be helpful.

I am curious to know if you are using google adwords to get your clicks or if you are getting them from a different PPC?

No,

I think i might have confused you, I ment i get 1000+1500 clicks on the ads displayed on my site.

Thats what i mean.

As for the part of looking at his site, his site is not like mine, he has ads on the top and almost no information i run a real site so i need to have the news there and stuff.

 

Excellent placement, couldn't tell that there were ads at first glance. What I would suggest is to have image and text ads rotating for your 250 x 250 ad on the bottom, might work well since you have so much text there and less graphics.

 

Hmm, I think i might just do that and see how it works out.

 

get your ad "above the fold"

 

What does above the fold mean?

 

Excellent Placement of Ads

 

Above the break in the page for most users resolution

 

If you have to hit page down and then your ads display on the page that means your ads are below the fold. Above the fold means - user does not have to hit page down.

 

I have 1 ad above and 2 below the fold.

Is that good? I just placed the ads where i thought people might see them good and click on it.

 

Right now your placement is decent, I won't call it the best. I just saw a great placement - some shrek related site - www.shrek-3-dvd-download.info - look at the placement on this site - absolutely amazing. Another cool placement -> click the spices site in my sig. See how I display ads above and below the fold.

 

Not directly related to the ad placement - have you thought about changing hosts? The site loads quite slow - which might cost you clicks from first time visitors who abandon the site while it loads.

 

What part of world you live at? It loads at a blink of eye for me!

 

Load times seem to have been a temporary problem - it now loads fast for me as well. Please disregard my last post.

 

Yea we were just having speed isssues.

Everything should be fixed now, and Bombaywala that shrek site is just awesome - whoever runs it is getting so paid if they have traffic!

 

It is not my site but if you search that url in this forum you will find out who runs it. Or you can whois the URL.
