    Just trying something a bit different and would appreciate your comments. One I would like to make extra money via adsense, but I do not want to turn my visitors away.

    Click here for the page.

    What would you suggest I do, make on of the ads smaller, change its colour?

    Thanks

    Excellent integrations of the ads with your article. For your very first ad unit, try using red (like: Divorce To Remarriage - Whats In Between? ) so its a bit different yet still blends in!

    Would you do both link and url colour or just the one.

    Have changed the link colour to red, what do you think now?

    8everything appreciate your feedback

    Nice blending, although the double rectangles could piss off some readers

    I love the ad placement. Especially the first ad above the fold -- excellent placement and integration with the colors of your site. I'd be interested to learn how well the other, smaller ad within the article performs, the one that looks like a 200x200 size ad.

    I think on the top left hand corner you should have the URL Title a Red color, because that ad block is right underneath the Red Title of the post. And the lower right hand corner ad URL Title should be a blueish color that you have, so basically just swap colors for those ads. You should get a fair amount of clicks that way.

    I just keep on experimenting with the ads.

    Thats what I was worried about.

    Yes it is, thought I would see how it goes for awhile.

    There is no harm trying.

    Thanks everyone for your feedback.

    Making a changes to a few of my websites, here is another one Family Recipes

    Did have a 200 x 200 square right hand side.

    Just changed it to have a leaderboard instead. What do you think?

    Having the square, may not in fact receive many clicks.
