    hi there, I was working hard on the adds this days, and I decided to experiment with colors. what do you think? should I use this contrast technique? or is it better to blend it with the same blue color as the other links?

    thanks in advance.

    There's a lot of blue links on that page, so I kind of like the color you have it at now. It doesn't scream "I'M A GOOGLE AD", but it stands out from the other links enough that it doesn't get lost. Keep it like that for a while and see how she does.

    thx.

    I had the same feeling, since blue ads didn't give me any clicks at all.

    No problem. You might want to try putting some ads inbetween your posts too....in the same orange color. Just a thought.

    I wouldn't use word 'RELATED' above adds, as this misleads users. So it is against TOS.
