Need help with ad placement on my blog!

    I currently have an ad above the header, two in between posts, and one on the sidebar. Where would be the best placement, so that I make the most money? Also what colors and ad sizes work best for you and in general? (square, rectangle, link) (no border, border)

    Thanks, Kenny (the blog is in my sig)

    WOW, remove the big splash full page ad thats coming up. DO you want your visitors to leave? remove it!
    also remove the adbrite ads in sidebar. put up a google ad sky scarper beside the Labels in your sidebar :)

    I would also move the google ad ABOVE your logo to next to the logo on the right side.. in my opinion it would look alot better.. good luck with your site and adsense!

    Nice site, you should make shorter posts: just put one or two pictures on the main page and add a link at the bottom of your posts: Click here to read the full article, or something like that, this will increase your page views, check my blog: 150news.com - i only put one sentence and the full gallery is on an another page.

    For your ads: peoples dont like ads, they hate them, so you have to integrate them very fine. Background color, the type color, the same color of your site.

    Sky scarpers are nice, it looks like a menu, it will increase your ctr. You can also add ads in your posts directly.

    Good luck, if you have any questions...

    I think you should move the ad above the logo and replace the image above the article heading with the 4 homes in it.
