    Hi,


    Which is better? Adsense IMAGE or TEXT ads?
    It seems most sites display the TEXT version, but I find it completely boring and never click on them. I love graphics and notice graphical ads more (as long as they aren't annoying).
    I tried both on a test page and I really like the graphic ones.

    Everything is OK if people click on it. Try to place only suitable ads format according to your page. If your website is graphic, web template, photo etc. related site, then image ads would be perfect and for article site, directory, eBook etc. then text is better.

    If you use 728X90 image ads, you can see only one-product ads at a time. Very few and having good roots companies are using this kind of image ads. It's very few chances to get click at one-product image ads. If you use 728X90 sized text ads, your visitors can see 4 text ads under it and have maximum change to get click at any one of the 4 ads.

    I am using 728X90 image ads on my directory submission section. But the image ads are neither relevant with my page nor with any directory. In the directory section, if the ads are not related with directory, will anyone click on it? Also till today, I've not seen any directory website that advertising with 728X90 image ads on Google. Lots of advertisers are using only text ads because it’s very easy to make ads campaigns.

    So, before going to place image ads on the page, make sure that you'll get enough image ads that related with your service or page.

    In 90% of cases text ads pay a lot more than banner ads :)

    HI

    I allow both on my sites.. but think text ads seem to get the most clicks.

    Thx
