    Hi

    I just redid my ad placement today - and adding rotating images as recommended in this forum.

    There are 3 sections of my site I would really appreciate feedback on:

    The homepage:
    http://cocopod.atspace.com

    The downloads:
    http://www.iceblue.co.za/cocopod/modules.php?name=Downloads

    and the forums of course...
    http://www.iceblue.co.za/cocopod/modules.php?name=Forums

    I get about 300 pageloads per day with 20 - 50 unique visitors. I have only pulled in a few dollars a month since I started 3 months ago. Any help/criticism appreciated.

    Thanks

    Sometimes less is more. I would suggest not cramming the 468 into the first box. It's so cluttered I can't tell what is what, and any clicks will be purely accidental, which should easily tick off your visitors.

    But the truth is, 20-50 uniques a day is very small. I would pay less attention to the ads and spend more time getting more traffic. It really doesn't matter how much you optimize your ads if no one sees it.

    @jackburton2006 - I have 2 X 468's in the first box... it IS crammed... should I remove both of them? Do you have any suggestions for the other sections of my site? Also, do you have a site? I couldn't find a link. Thanks for the feedback though.

    @fhirzall - yeah the iAudio x5 rocks!!!! Did you see this thread?

    try many lay out on your website and see what happen.

    the ads works different on different website, but take general suggestion from many many threads in DP.

    Just read that thread, the x5 is great, got mine last december after selling my iriver h120, I do feel like selling my x5 and getting a creative zen vision:m because it looks so damn nice but back to topic....website looks good, but one thing bothered me about the links when you hover, it turns white, and you can't see it, cool effect, but try making it turn blue maybe? Ads are blended pretty well...I'm not an adsense expert though, so don't take my word for it:)
