Please review my ad placement.. why am i not getting enough clicks ?

hi i have a blog @ devilslab.com

i have now used a premium wordpress theme.... and worked with the ad placement also.... can you please see it and tell me where i am wrong..

and let me tell you that my blog is a 100% revenue sharing blog

 

Try using image ads instead of text ads, they seem to get better CTR.

 

Try embedding the large square adsense in the side column and mixing it up a bit.

 

theres a section on these forums to ask for reviews and such of your website and ad placement.


anyways, just wanted to run this by you as something I noticed.


you wrote

"Devilslab is authored and owned by Shekhar Saxena, a 18 years old young guy. A technology enthusiast, with a dream to blog at a very young age reached new heights when his passion to write and contribute was acknowledged by some of the most popular publications on the world wide web."


Heres a few edits that will help that out.

anyways just my advice.

 

more traffic will lead to higher clicks, work on getting more visitors through SEO and creating great content

 

u need more traffic

 

Well, I think you should use one Image ad on the top !
Along with that advertise your blog to get more traffic only then you will be able to earn more.

- Digital -

 

technology blogs are something that are not focused around a single thing - so there are always higher chances of getting irrelevant ads and thus less clicks.Moreover remember that your visitors are not DESPERATE - They are not looking for a solution for a real life problem [most of the times].So less ctr is usual in tech blogs.If it had been a person who was looking for acne cure,he would have been desperate for a solution and is sure to click on the ads.

So the only way to increase your earnings is to bring more traffic which will be the hardest part - just be focused on that part and there are not any other thing that you could do.Your blog looks very neat.cool job.

 

Your ad placement looks great to me, id worry more about working on content and traffic, then the clicks will come.

 

You need to continuously experiment with your ad placement.

Try changing the ads size on single posts to a smaller square below the title and use 360x280 at the bottom of your post, right above comments.

Good luck.

 

it's better to remove the recent post and about us column
