I can honestly tell you that I click on ads in many sites and blogs of DP members ,even if I have just the slightest interest in the Ad . Specially when people post links to their own sites with the clear attempt to drive traffic , if the article or the info in the self-promoting post is actually useful I gladly click an advertisements on that site (if they are interesting) , knowing that this is why the person is actually sharing the information with us .
Then, i will say it will be 50% of adsense publisher will no click on people ad. Of course the percenetage may not be right, but that definate reduce one people get knowing it is an adsense ad.
I've been considering writing this mod to a few of my sites, I have it working on one. But I actually like to know what’s showing to my visitors.
you guys are misunderstanding him. He's not talking about his own ads his english is just bad. He's saying since he became an adsense member, he rarely clicks other peoples ads now that he knows them from using them on his own site. He was clicking a lot before he was an adsense member
ive clicked on several of the google search ads on the right side of the page when doing google searches, but have only clicked on one or two ads on other sites
ive never clicks on liek text ads ever lol but once I saw a google video advertising thing on some site about flowers or something I actually clicked play to check this out!!!!! how do i get these video things on my site I think their cool!!!!!!!
I have a self-developed php mod. Whenever I want to view what ads are showing to my visitors then I use it. It simply replaces my pub-id to a blank one and displays the webpage.
My mouse click-finger usually goes into a catatonic state of panic whenever the cursor gets near any Adsense ad, but that is because I'm so paranoid about accidentally clicking on the ads on my own site. Once my brain clicks in and I realize I'm actually on someone else's site, sure, I'll click on it, but only if it is of real interest. Vito
The mod I have working is replacing the ads with a blank table in the same size. Problem with putting a blank pub-id might be that it's against the TOS, but than again, you are the only one seeing it. Does the ads work well with blank pub-id? I never tried it.
Ya same with me, i also not click any adsense ads of any site mostly.. I prefer to write the ad url manually and then visit the site... Dont know why?
Same as before I had adsense, if I am interested, I click. If I am not interested, I don't click. No difference than before.
