    Hey guys,

    After reading a few e-books on adsense, I decided to change my adsense layout/placement so that i can get the most money...

    Originally I had a skyscraper ad on the left..... and the same ad wrapped within the main text.

    Now I have leaderboard....same ad wrapped in context... and link unit on the right.

    Do you think it looks okay?

    I haven't gotten many clicks since the change But I tihnk it looks better..maybe I just need to wait.

    Have you considered going with an Adlinks unit at the top instead of a banner leaderboard? I've always found that the Adlinks, with its slim down and non-cluttering look, performs incredibly well.

    what I suggest you to do:
    place 4 images on top of your leaderboard
    place an adlink just below your leaderboard, same size, maybe try to implement this look:
    http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=89515
    change your 300x250 block with a 336x280

    add a 336x280 block at the end of your content.

    in all your block, make the url_color black, only the link should be blue.

    Enjoy your earnings.

    Thank you!

    Isnt that a bit much though to add more ads to the bottom of the page?

    No I don't think it is too much, but some people do think like that. What matters is what YOU think since it's your site.
