Suggestions for placements: Is this the best that can be done?

Hi guys after spending the past 1-2 months at DP reading all the adsense related topics, I've basically come up with what seemed to be on general consensus what the best ad placements were.

Hopefully I've been able to put into practice what you guys all preach, but unless I've really missed out on some cruicial point, I'd appreciate it if someone nudged me in the right direction so to speak.

What I've utilized is the blending method, and utilizing the placements of multiple ads so they appear 'seamlessly' into the layout.

Would you do anything different? What would you suggest?

The website in question above is a dance website and I'm trying to raise money there for a local crew which I believe deserve it because of the amount of hard work the entire team put in.

 

Seems to be perfect blend Yukio..
A few suggestions though.
1. The link ads which is right now at the lower left, could probably to the upper right, right above "DANCE 101"
2. Maybe a big google sq box (I think that is 340x230 or something like that) at the bottom of the center column right above "Archives"

And also, you can add a google search somewhere on the page. It would help searching your site as well and trickle in some $ as well...

 

Did you read Google´s adsense optimization page? Have a look. Most of what you are asking is discussed on this page. https://www.google.com/support/adsense/bin/static.py?page=tips.html

 

I like it with one caveat, and it's just one of my many pet peeves -- your site doesn't center on my 1024 px display.

 

really nice site. Looks perfect

 

Nice job! I just would add a search box like someone said above

 

Excellent site... might copy your style

 

The banner ad at the top is very slick. You obviously know what you're doing.

Plus... all the ads are on-topic.

 

I really like the blending that you did to... very unobtrusive. Did you design the teplate yourself?

Thanks,

IMO there is too many ads, i would look and that site and think no thanks and then click close

 

you got props from here for supporting your local dance crew... that's cool.

 

I've realigned the page so it centers on the browsers now. I'll have a look at implementing some of the suggestions on this thread.

 

much better
