Red link color converting better than blue

    Have you guys tested different link colors other than the generic blue that almost everyone is using for their AdSense? The red seems to convert about 2% higher than blue after 2 months of testing.

    Possibly, depending on the particular site. I don't use red or blue.... I try to blend adsense links with the same or similar color as site content and links (link, hover, active)

    Never tried red. However, the idea is worth trying. Thanks.

    red and blue look spammy and unoriginal anyway. Unless your site has red and/or blue

    Red can be a more attention catching color I guess, as many links are blue. I'm with cujo though. I also try to blend adsense links with the same or similar colors as my sites.

    I think matching the color to site's text content is more useful.
