Is it too full of ads? I get no ad clicks at all. I have around 700 uniques so far this month. My next highest month was 840 uniques so I am happy about traffic this month. My site is basically concentrated on Mid-Michigan,but anyone can read and enjoy. What do you think? What steps can I take to advance?? www.midmichiganads.com/blog
The design does not look professional and there are too many ads on the page you should get a professional template to make the blog look more appealing.
Thank you kingofsanda. I appreciate the feedback. I was thinking of taking off some adds already. Probably the whole right side. I can't afford a professional template right now though. Thanks again.
You need to separate blod post and left side bar. Everything is too close. Also make space between ads.
Yeah adminworld you are right. How do I seperate the post from the template though? I got rid of all the ads congesting the right side though and it looks better. Well almost all I just added a "spottt" ad. Anybody use that? I guess it is a link exchange from the AdBrite. Anywho. I do need to put space between ads, but when I put them on I was so excited that I got the html to work i didn't care. i should go back so. What do you think a <hr> to split? Thanks again guys/gals. I am already enjoying my site more.
Their is also one factor why no one click your ads, because other ad is not realted to your site. you also place your ad on one place so your post will not be cover or overlap by ad. Did you notice not all your ad is related to your site? that is my theory.. cheers!!!!
Thanks again all. I did break up the ads last night. I like the way that it looks more now. Zambo you are 100% right. I put those ads on there because I thought that I was getting paid by impression, but it doesn't seem as so. I really boosted my traffic lately and all I have to show in AdBrite is 7 cents What kind of content would be related to my site. I guess i need to think of that since I am from the location that is being isolated....hmmmm.... the thing that sucks is that there is so little on the 'net about Mid-Michigan (thats why I thought this would work).
some ads is also lower the price if we click the ad. due to crisis. hehe by also strict now for every click by other visitor. we are lucky with the ad appears on our sites is more related.. now its hard for us to earn from ads. 10 clicks is about how many cents only.. not like before... but still cheers!! time will come...
Looks pretty good. The ads are in a comfortable position and looking nicely. The overall theme and design of the blog looks awesome too I'd perhaps use a different icon for the Archives and Blogroll catagories instead of a tick. Overall, good blog. GJ
Looks pretty healthy contents and nice design but u may change the back ground color its look dull just becoz of that bg color rest is fine my thumbs up to u
can't say the ads are bothering me, do like the overall theme to, but still it could use some contrast, maybe some color, something more that says look here 1st, since it everything looks the same.
I dont think that there is too many ads. Maybe, my suggestion is to change template...Find some better one here : Wordpress Themes Thanks! - LinkLoverSEO
Thanks for all the help. I wanted that theme because it is like a newspaper, and I am trying to deliver local news. Unfortunately I sacrificed the color. I am gonna check out other themes. Can anyone recommend a good colorful theme that has 3 parts? Thanks again.
