    Can you please check my ads placement and color? Is this OK?
    Is it against TOS to put Amazon link so close above?

    I added 3 blocks per page, and every block has 2 ads. Is that OK? Can I put more, or should it be less?

    Can I put bigger block? Will it look bad?

    Site is in my signature!

    Thanks!

    LOlz :D what was that? No one will be clicking your ads. :| Make a 300-250 Ad ad place it on the top sidebar, so that you will atleast get some clicks :|

    Poor adplacement, but awsome theme. I can do the adplacement if you have something to spent Lolz :D why not? sure :)

    nice theme.... once we talk of CTR, its imp to do some testing to improve it. On top of this, you have to reduce ad blindness of reader. Human eye tends to overlook ads. One of the things you can do is to remove the border around your ads. This will definatley reduce ad blindness. I will also recommend that you read on "Ad blindness" on adsense forum/ help

    Follow extremephp advice. At the very least, you should place your ads above the fold...

    Can I ad more blocks then I already have? My theme puts 3 units on homepage and 2 in each post (above and under the post). Can I ad one more block on home page?

    I understand you cannot have more than three blocks. But you can add Adsense for search, and Adsense links. There are more options you can explore, something about RSS (see in adsense). From my experience, Ads for Search may work great, if placed properly. Also, I agree that you should move ads closer to the top. Now your ads will only serve to people who did some reading of your content and decided to leave. Accidental visitors are not covered at all.

    And now?
    Is it better? The color in the sidebar ads is the same like the color of ads in post, but I have impression that it looks worse. The problem is background. I'll find solution later.

    What do you think?
