Trouble with Where I should put my Adsense

Discussion in 'Placement / Reviews / Examples' started by Jetsdonwankey, Feb 17, 2006.

    First and foremost: http://ww.jetstv.com

    My site is getting a super low CTR with the use of a leaderboard on the top and wide skyscrapers on the right side. I have since removed the scrapers (because they did not fit well) blended everything to be white and changed the top logo to blend with the rest of the page.

    I only have the 1 Leaderboard up, where should I put the other 2 available ads?

    Thank you in advance:

    you don't have to use up all 3 alocations. you should try with one configuration and stick with it for a week or so, see if your CTR is much better.

    So just stick with simply the leaderboard on my homepage?

    for now, yes. see if it makes any difference. since yours is a vlog, maybe (just maybe) having one ad unit gives better CTR. (mine does)

    One little note: at the top, did you mean to have "Blogging" instead of "Vlogging"? ;)

    Anyways, on my football site, I find that the most effective ads are usually the ones when people would click on the link to view the comments. More often than not, a person will go to your site, then click the link to go to the comments. Then, that's all they'll need to see, and move on.

    On your comments page, you have Google Ads only near the top. When I viewed the page, I scrolled down right away to get to the comments. Maybe after the very last comment, you should have a large rectangle ad. That way, right before someone leaves, they may see a football related ad that they're interested in, and use that Google ad as their exit page rather than simply "leaving" your page.

    Good luck :)

    Vlogging is short for video blogging, which is i believe what jet's site is about. :)
