    From my personal experience I know that blue is the best. If you can some how use a blue theme for your whole site as well, that will be great. That way adsense ads will also merge in.

    Have a look at this:

    Your ads should be intergrated well with the background of your blog, make it seem like its a link to another page of your blog, rather than make it stand out clearly that it is an ad.

    Links that are more visible and suite your site colors are the best.

    I read in Joel Comms book that blue is best. I am about to implement myself and see the results. Will let everyone know.

    It depends on the font color of your website. Generally links as we know of is perceived to be blue in color.

    I think it is always a constant experimentation when it comes to adsense color either as a link or a bigger ad.

    This is very intresting, never thought of that!

    One thing that comes to my mind is to do add variations to check what suites better for you audience. I dont really think they are the BEST adds, positioning and keywords on the adds are the key there.

    My sites' links are slightly different.

    I believe the default adsense link blue color works best with white background.

    I also try to blend but almost blend rather than perfectly. So, if most of my links are red, for example, I used just ever so slightly a different red for the adsense links and it appears to work for me. It could also just be luck but I have used the method with apparent success for a while now.
