    I would like to know if the placment of my adsense ads is about right, at the present time I get from 6 to 15% on the clickthrough rates, but still not making good money yet, I know it could do better.

    I honestly think you have to many ads right at the top of the page and it looks confusing. Sometimes less is more.

    I'm confused. Are you trying to sell a restoration service or get clicks on adsense? If you're trying to sell something less is way more, don't put adsense ads and outside links on your page, they're going to simply distract and drive away potential customers. Now if you're just wanting to give info on restoration and not actually sell something then I would recommend monetizing your site with adsense.

    That is great CTR but the money will come when you have tons of visitors visit your site. I am guessing you don't receive very many visitors yet. Making money with Adsense doesn't happen overnight.

    I want to thank all of you for the lookse and replies on my post. The web site http://muscle-car-resto.com is just an informational site designed to help people answer questions about their old cars, and I just want to monitize that site.

    The other one http://red-line-resto.com is a site that promotes my shop to sell muscle car restorations to the general public, it's not getting a lot of visits yet, but I'm working the seo part of it to get it ranking higher in google and the other major search engines for it's keywords, it's the one I need the most help with, the other site I can run tests on to figure out what works the best for it.

    In going with the less is more idea, I have removed one of the adsense blocks for http://red-line-resto.com, and we're going to try that, I'm using Joel Comms adsense ebook to opimize my sites for adsense, he seem to know his stuff when it comes to adsense.
