less adsense ads = higher amount per click?

hello -

i forgot where i was reading (somewhere in DP) that someone stated that putting the max amount of adsense ads on one page would "dilute" the amount each click could be worth?

just wanted to get your thoughts on that...

thanks in advanced!

 

They fill the ads with the highest paying advertisers first, so filling a page with ads can definitely lead to lower conversions. If people tend to click on the last ad on the page then you are likely missing out on some cash. Place different ads in different locations and use channel tracking to find the best performing placement. Then remove the low CTR ads to maximize earnings. just my .02

 

I agree with 1EightT.

 

Definitely stick with the "less is more" approach. One, possibly two well-placed ads will definitely yield more. If nothing else, it will make your site look less like an MFA and engender the trust of visitors.

 

I also agree with the "less is more" approach. I'm working on a new site that I believe will be a nice niche. I'm putting one simple adsense block in the text of each page. I want this site to have credibility and not look like an MFA site.

 

And watch where the adsense code is situated in your page's HTML/PHP. The first adsense occurence in the HTML/PHP will be populated with the highest paying ads.

Some ppl confuse this with where the ad appears when it is rendered.
