    My new blog. I'm still learning wordpress, blogging, etc. And I added a few Ads on there. Please tell me if I am doing good on optimization and if there is anything I can do to improve. Thanks.

    Adsense ad on the right works great. What I would add is a 468 x 60 banner in the content area.

    i would embed a block ad unit into the body of the post. I do it and it helps my CTR a lot...

    Ok thanks, I am going to ad an image to the header, and add 728x90 text in the post content. Thanks!


    Edit:

    I added 1 text ad in the content. I added 1 text ad on the sidebar. I added 1 banner on the footer. That is 3, so I can't add a banner on the header, what do you think I should do? Maybe place an affiliate banner at the top? Or move the adsense banner from the footer to the header? If to the header, should I make it a text/image ad or just image?

    I think You have enough place to put a Leader Board ad in the Content Area, if not then place a Banner Ad in the Content area and blend it well ;)
    Current Blending is good ;)

    leaderboard would be great at the top...

    the image ad below kinda ruins the clean look...maybe you can put that above the footer banner...

    clean site...looks great...good luck
