    Hey could i get an ad placement review for my site

    http://www.fix-clogged-drains.com

    i just moved around the ads a bit and would like some oppinions and suggestions to increase click throughs.

    The site gets about 10 visitors a day pretty much all from google. Usually about 1-2 click an ad.

    Any suggestions are welcome and appreciated. Thanks.

    omg :)
    First of you shoudl get rid of the link-unit becouse it doesnt perform well and you would prefer a click on a adunit then on a link unit.
    Secound you should try to float the adsense unit to the left and make the text of the article wrap around it.
    Oh and third, lose the second ad unit. Use only the rectangle adunit.
    I almost forgat, your adunit collors are usual link colors, red with blue. Try making the title RED and keep the text and url of the ad black.
    Good luck

    Change your url colors to black (green makes it stick out too much) and the minimize your font to size 2 and arial to match your ads (gives better blending).

    Yes i agree with the redesign thing. The website looks like crap. I threw it together in about a day and havent really messed with it too much since. Its meant to get that free google traffic and get the visitor to leave through an ad.

    Thanks for the suggestions guys. I will try to implement some of them over the next week then ill do a follow up. Does anyone have any suggestions as to where to find a good free template? Ive looked around but nothing i found seemed to fit very well. Thanks again.

    your placement looks good but you can move the link units to the footer of your pages

    you definitely need a template to design your website. Ad design is alright although i would use a horizontal banner across the top.
