Following is based on my experience and some good book keeping. -------------------------------------------------------------- (I) Lets say you make a website which shares 1 header and 1 footer for all 100 pages of your site. User X lands on page 3 and then exists. User Y lands on page 6 and exists. Over all the add impression would be 2 for header and 2 for footer channel. (II) Alternatively, page 3 and page 6 of your site, has unique headers and footers. Which means user X landing on page 3 and user Y landing on page 6 will lead to 1 header/1 footer impression for page X alone, 1 header/ 1 footer impression for page Y alone. or, Header(page3) channel = 1 impression footer(page3) channel = 1 impression header(page6) channel = 1 impression footer(page6) channel = 1 impression as opposed to scnerio (I) which is Header(page3 and page6) = 2 impression footer(page3 and page6) = 2 impression ---------------------------------------------------------------- If you compare revenue for (I) and (II), (II) would make you more money than (I). ---------------------------------------------------- This also leads you to a the conclusion that if you have two websites, NEVER copy/paste header code of one site into the other ... Because the over all impression would be too high for header code, which means low revenue. If you keep them separate into two unique header channels with their own unique ID...u would make way more!!! Why? I don't know but when ad impression goes up, google will send some crappy cheap ads onto your site. but if ads are unique, each one will get a impression and your ads would make more. ps: My site has close to 41,000 pages and I have done plenty of experimentation to back my claim.
Bad idea. Because Google takes into consideration the amount of clicks you get and because of that would serve you with lower paying ads across your entire network of sites... therefore losing you money. But it sounded good in theory.
I totally disagree...and although what you mention about google may be something you may have heard, above is what i actually decided to test and my renvenue from google is a testimony of it
I don't get this exactly... so you mean you enter different adsense add code into every header? And what... make 40.000 different channels? Or make every ad different color? Because the code for the same add size, color and channel is the same
Yea, from my experience option (II) will work better...I'm still looking for a better channel combo tho
You are trying to slip through a "loophole". And once google figures it out (which they will) you might be at a loss of an adsense account.
its good matter for discus , Header = High paying Footer = low paying But you know how google will detect visitors quality ? One day i made one website related Mortgages witch is high paying keyword in content market but if my visitors coming from celebrity website they will find ( my visitors ) where is celebrity news or pictures ........> How google is checking from where that visitors coming from and what they need ....> create one blogger blog related "auto mobile" but in first 15 minutes ads must be related "blogs" because first 15 minutes visitors must be coming from "blogger home page random link" thats what they ( blogger visitors ) need. some time google will through some other non relevant ads to check whats visitors choice , so your header fact wont be long last, within 3 month eCPM will go down.
So okay, if I get this right.. You have a 41,000 page website, you create a NEW ad code for each one? NOT using includes(for sitewide)?
a lot of those pages are script generated for confessions/forums/tv comments but I made new headers/footers for the highly visited single pages (over 100) I just wanted to drive the point that I ain't some webmaster of a single page geocities website..lol.
I see. So when you talk of header/footer - you mean a new adsense code (ad unit)? Are you putting them all under a few channels though?
i have to agree with you. increasing ad impressions is never a good idea. your payout will be affected by this. focus should be making more with less ads and less impressions.
