AdSense too subtle?

    Is the AdSense on www.*****.com too subtle?

    They're not on every page, and I've tried to make them fit the site as much as possible without trashing the design... but it might be time to sacrifice aesthetics for cash.

    Do I need to move them up the page a bit?
    I'm never sure if the ads should stand out, or blend in. Or stand out while blending in :rolleyes:

    They are just great (in my opinion) :)

    They are blending in quite right.

    Might want to put the adsense above the images on the homepage for a better ctr. Nice looking website.

    Very nice looking website, indeed.

    I think the ads are nicely blended -- I wouldn't change anything yet. Make sure that you're using channels to track clicks. If you change anything, change only one item at a time and watch the channels again.

    Your color scheme is great -- I'd click ads left and right if I was a regular website viewer. The blending is better than anything I could accomplish :)

    That question is easily answered: are you making good money/CTR off this placement? That's your answer right there.

    I'm only just starting to get visitors, and probably not enough of them to judge the adsense placement by CTR just yet.

    Thanks for the comments everyone. I'll probably just leave the ads where they are for a while and see how it goes. I have to stop tinkering.
