I usually keep default "Text and Image Ads" on my blog but i don't know which of them perform better.Is there a way to know this.Are image ads mostly based on page impressions. Thanks.
The way to know this is to test it! You could put text ads on some pages, image ads on other pages, and then compare the CTR and earnings after a month. You could put text ads on for a month, then image ads on for a month, and then, again, compare the CTR and earnings. (And images ads aren't mostly based on page impressions - in my experience it's rare to get CPM ads of any kind.)
A lot of that depends on your niche. I do much better with text ads than image ads as my demographic are mostly business people.
Agreed. For myself text ads generate more revenue, but with a lower click through rate. Image adds generate a high CTR for me, but less revenue. Test it out.
text ads are proven to attract more clicks than image ads. however, there are certain sites in certain niche where image ads do lot better than text ads. it also depends on the site layout as well. some image ads look just like the text ads where the advertiser creates the image ad using text. these types of ads look like text ads but take up the entire ad block allowing maximum attention so gets more clicks at the end. all really depends on how you are presenting them
I'm still testing it. Some days I do get better revenue in image Ads. But this is not an overall impression.
It varies by site/niche, but it's easy to find out. Set up two channels. Configure your site to use the text ad for 50% of page views and the text+image ad for the other 50%. Each goes into its own channel. Wait a month or two and look at your Adsense reports and see which channel earned you more money.
Hi, zenalisha here, i would like to suggest u that u must use some relevant niche and add text with some useful images that will create a awesome look of ur add.
Image ads work well on high traffic and entertainment related niche for others text ads is best. Just my 2 cent.
Nice to try.. Maybe next sunday i'll try to place both of text and image in different sites but have similiar traffic, same theme, and almost have similiar topic
