Ad Placement On My Blog? Unique or Not?

http://moneymakingforbeginners.blogspot.com/

That is my blog, how does it look? I am new to this, but I thought I picked a good spot for the ads, what do you guys think?

 

Right! if this is your first try then you are way ahead from other beginners

Good work!

 

How About Now? I am changing the template, hows it look?

 

I like the "live traffic feed". Where did you get that?

Otherwise I really like the clean lines of the site.

On topic, I think the ad placement is fine mate

 

Thanks, I was not sure if that was a good spot. Should I keep the ads at the top of the post, or inbetween posts, or what?

 

Experiment! Leave it up top and, if the clicks aren't good, try moving it around.

When I ran a technology blog, I noticed that I got more clicks when the ads were in-between posts but that my returning users preferred them on top because it looks neater. It'll be different for every blog, but that's what I found.

 

I like the adsense placing you have, and colors are nice too!

 

it looks good to me

 

Thanks guys, this is my first blog so I wasn't sure if I was doing it right.

Anyone know where I can get actual picture ads? I am an affiliate of some online smoke shops, but I was not sure if those would be a good idea for this type of blog.

 

You have done very well for a beginner.

 

Great looking blog and excellent ad placement.
Nice work
Cheers,

No and No Man

Too easy to be looking like an Ads.

The Colors are Different , At least the articles titles and ads title should look similer, although if you Make the ad title little brighter to Catch,Visitors eyes that will be cool.

I Guess the Wide Ad in the Middle will be cooler if you have a 5 Links above so it will looks like Continues from the top 10 List.

Anyway this is my Honest Opinion.

peace

 

I changed the background, is it too bright, should I change it back to white?
