How many ads do you use?

    We all know using 125x125 banner ads on our blog sidebar is a great way to make money from a blog, I currently use 4, they are all full and am wondering whether or not I should add two more. I have seen bloggers use up to 10, I am wondering whether to use 6.

    My blog is http://jgblogging.com can you tell me how many you use and whether adding any more spots wold make my blog look un professional. I do think using 6 is ok, just wondered what you think.

    As long as you're sure the blogs will not affect your traffic flow, it is safe to use as many ads as you feel necessary. It is a very good way to monetize your blog quickly, but make sure you have a good traffic flow first.

    Yeah traffic flow is important, I am thinking of adding two more ads, do you think it will look weird, or do you think it will look fine?

    If you not have more visitor not more than 500 Unique visitor everyday i think you don't install any ads likes banner or payperclick ads.. i think u can get more money if your visitor under 100 unique visitor you must join to paid review :)

    I use Google adsence account for making money and getting ads. if you get 500 visitor daily you add ads in your blog
    or website.

    I do not use banners, only Google adsence + text links. Banners flashing anywhere in blog are very annoying imo.

    It all basically depends on your blog traffic. 125 ads are useful mainly for affiliate marketing and you have good traffic to view them.
    all the best.

    cheers

    Also i notice ads between content will convert more than in sidebar, according my experience. Although i know it is decreasing the cleaness of our blogs :/

    Yeah, I have adsense at the start of each post, but only on the single post, that converts pretty well.

    *I did add two more ads to my sidebar :p
