1000 visitors a day from Google alone, only 20-30 clicks :(

    I have a tech blog at http://www.CravingTech.com. I know I can earn more since I have 1,500 unique visitors a day constantly but in the end, I only earn a few dollars a day due to the little number of clicks.

    So I'm arranging things around..can you give suggestions on optimizations? (Note: if you come from search engines, adsense on the top of every post will be the 336x280, not the 468x60 you are seeing now)

    I'm also trying to put a 468x15 link units on the main page, above the first post just now. Do you think it's good or should I put a 468x60 image / 300x250 ad there instead from your experience?

    Thanks, I know I can earn much more!

    Since your site is all about technology, why don't you try to target some keyword that is often used by vistors for a certain product. And of course, select the high-paying keyword to target for.

    You have only one link unit which not visible.. try to use another ad units or see how your competitor has placed.

    hi, appreciate the replies but some of you really need to visit my blog and help to have a look!

    @animesh: I didn't really like the link unit because it normally gives a 2-3cents a click :( but I guess I can try adding more somewhere...

    I made some changes some time ago, the top ad will now use 300x250 (someone told me it works better than 336x280 although they look similar to me :confused:)

    I also add an extra 300x250 on the bottom of the post, to the right column (mixed of text/image)

    What do you think?
