Maybe you've never paid much attention to the colors of your website, or your AdSense ads. In my experience, a lot of people make these two common mistakes. 1. They use eye fatiguing colors. Ex: 17 Magazine. 2. They use the general blue color for their adsense ad titles. Here's the thing, #0000FF is actually extremely fatiguing on the eyes, opposed to something like this: less fatiguing color. Just look at the colors next to each other. Which is easier to read? Normal Blue or Navy Blue What you need to do to get MORE CLICKS! Your users want a site that not only blends, but they want a site that does NOT hurt their eyes. * To get more AdSense clicks, blend your ads with the colors of your site's banner. * Also, make sure your site's colors aren't fatiguing on the eyes. More Examples of Good and Bad Sites: As you look at each site, take notes of the ones that are less harsh on your eyes. If you decide to change your site's colors, pay specific attention to how much easier it is to stay on a site when it's easier to read. Bad: http://www.davesdaily.com/ Good: http://www.facebook.com/ Good: http://www.askthebuilder.com/ (navigation's a little fatiguing) Bad: http://www.perezhilton.com/ Bad: http://www.vipflux.com/ By making your colors less fatiguing, you'll decrease bounce rate, and increase adsense ad clicks... thus, making you more $$$ (this has been TESTED & PROVEN to work!)

No wonder people don't do well with AdSense... they don't listen when people attempt to give them advice. lol last post i do here. peace out
After reading your post everyone frantically went to their sites to change the adsense to less fatiguing colors. Myself, I can't stop using these colors to make spastic looking websites. Like this flip ultrahd price comparison page. I definitely agree with you and will make those adjustments on my next build. Just hate to back up and redo everything.
Thanks. I like the askthebuilder.com's color. But I have to mention one fact. Some times, controversial colors like white background ads in black background websites works... This is true and I have seen in numerous cases.
