Hello, Just dropping in to ask for some feedback in regards to adsense and ad placements. My site: <a href="http://www.pokemonblogger.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.pokemonblogger.com/</a> The site itself is 3 or so months old, as you can see a lot of content is 'under construction' or 'coming soon' but there is still a lot of good content, such as the blog posts, guides, giveaways and more. I have a 728x60px image advertisement sitting under the header and before the main content on each page, this is the only ad I have as I don't want to annoy my users too much. I'm lucky to get one click a week from this ad, although they are generally fairly high paying clicks ($1-3), so it would be nice to get more of them. I also run a forum, also relatively new, but I would say that it gets twice the amount of views that the homepage does, should I place adsense on the forum? If so, where are the best placements? Any help would be appreciated, even tips of generating traffic and such. Cheers
On the blog, you could add another (250 x 250 Square ) on the left sidebar, I would place it as the second or third item, just above the fold. For the forum, insert a 728 x 90 Leaderboard below the first or secont post on every page.
Thanks for the tips, I've added a few more ads to the site and forum. One more question, are link ads alright to place on my website? I don't see them often and I'm not sure ifs that they do not pay well or what..
