Hey guys, Has anyone else heard that the best colors to make the most money with google adsense are red and yellow? They say research has been done and these colors are the ones that attract humans' eyes the most. Hence why they use them in many advertisments even on cars the brakes are and the signal to turn is yellow. Also the common red yellow green uses in traffic lights. Also th emajor companies like Checkers use them. What do you guys think? Is this really true? Anyone tried it yet? Thank You
I havnt tried it, but I will agree that we have become accustomed to paying attention to the colors that you mentioned. Also with the red and Yellow, that was first researched by Mc Donalds I think....however, on the web it seems to be different because people have come to see blue and thing that it is 'clickable'. I have found that #0044FF Blue works the best, with grey tones for text and links. I would be interested in know what types of combos people have done well with aswell...
for some reason i always click on black or grey links, even if they are google adds (i normally dont click google adds)
Haven't tried this specifically and what I've found works best for us is to keep the back and borders blended with the links being the same color as the rest of the links on my page and the ad text the same as the rest of our page text.
Yeah, I've never heard anything about the most effective colors. As long as you properly blend your ads, you can do well with any color scheme.
Whatever the color, I make sure my site looks the same...all links (ads and my own links) all appear in the same color, and I also try the same display format.
The best colors are your favorite colors because in the end the only thing that matters is what the words read, not the colors they are to the readers eyes.
