    Whilst doing well with the rest of my blog mini empire one site is frustrating me of late.

    http://colbiecaillat.blogspot.com

    It is getting about 600 SERPS a day but barely making a dollar at the moment, It was making a lot from Amazon but now the album has been out a while it sells a copy every few days.

    I've played around a bit with Adsense, the latest pink ads don't seem to work well, can anyone suggest some improvements on layout/blending?

    Thanks

    You def. want to get rid of those pink ads. Experiment with some medium rectangle ad block inside the content. I'd keep the wide skycraper on the left (blend it in), and put a rectangle ad block in the bio section.

    I would take the pink on the left and blend it in and the navigation in the right I would make it the same fonts and give it the same kinda look as the adsense ads.
    Add adsense in the first two new posts and keep them near the comment area.
    Good Luck

    You could add 5 adsense vertical link in the left, 5 adsense horizontal link at the top of your site and you can add adsense Body inside the post, 300 x 250 may be great. But try to blend the ads with your post.


    Cheers,:)
