Sense of Adsense

Looking at making money of your site or blog then adsense is the tool for you. An example of how adsense ad's look can be seen right here on this HubPage and on just about everypage at HubPages. Once you have joined adsense you can start placing the ad's on your blog or website right away. While it may be tempting to put ad's all over the place, more is not always best. Check out the Google adsense blog for tips on using adsense and ad placement. Go to google.com and search for adsense blog.

Far too many people place their advertisements off to the side or down low on the webpage. These are typically the ones that complain about how poorly the advertising program works. If you are putting your ads in an out-of-the-way place, they will rarely ever get clicked on. In fact, you are almost asking people to go out of their way in order to click on your ad, something that they are never going to do. It is better if you make sure that the ad is directly in their face, right at the top of the page or close to the top if you are going to get the kind of clicks that you need to make serious money.

Not only does the need to be near the top of the page, you need to make sure that it is designed well so that it will pull in clicks. One of the easiest ways to do this is to blend the ad into your page as if it were a part of it. For example, if you have a simple article page with a white background, make the border and the background of the ad white as well. This will make it blend very well into the page and if you put the links directly above the article, they will pull in additional clicks.

Of course, it also depends on what kind of ad sizes you are actually using. One of the most effective of the as sizes is the large rectangle. If you use one of these at the top of your page that blends in well, you will definitely pull a lot of clicks. What if you don't want to be quite so out there with your advertising? You can use other Adsense ads as well if you use them properly. A good example of this are the link unit ads. You can also blend these into the page and make them look as if they were navigational links leading to various parts of your website. You would be surprised with the number of clicks you can get by using this method as well.
