What do you think?

I have followed Cheney's advice on Adsense placement but am concerned about the skyscraper in the RH column. Would I be better off with more space and block ads instead?

Thanks.

not bad, 7/10 rating

i would move that banner at the bottom up a big and blend it with content

on pages like http://www.busyoutdoors.com/You_wouldn_t_get_me_caravanning_article_from_BusyOutdoors.Com.html instead of the vetical banner, try a 250x250 like on this page

http://blog.worldvillage.com/sports/nfl_2006_regular_season_predictions_afc.html

i am a blogger for that site and get a ctr of over 10, good luck

 

OK, thank you. I will try moving the bottom block up into the text.

Looks good to me, regarding text links or banner? you can try it out for couple of weeks and see which one works better for you

 

Looks good except for the ugly background. Tone that down a bit and you have a winner.

 

Thank you, it's good to know I'm heading in the right direction.

I'm running Adsense tracker so I should be able to see which ads work. As for the background, some people like it some don't! It wouldn't be my first choice but I have had quite a few positive comments about it so I might leave it for a bit.
