Had one of those stressy days so not sure if I can do this here .. if not delete it .. but would appreciate comments on the layout of an example page of a site I'm doing .. mainly re effectiveness of ad placings ... I suspect I've veered slightly towards the 'design' side of things ..

I just found this post and clicked on your URL, but there was no page there.
thumbs up
to nitpick, if it was mine - i would lose the borders on adsense blocks and center the skyscraper.
ta .. why lose the borders ? I prefer them but that is probably once again a designer view
Im a designer also. Guess we have different tastes.
As a designer and a marketer, adsense modules seem to perform better when they are blended into the theme a bit more than you have currently done.
Its an easy change! keep it as you like and be sure to occasionally make changes and measure your results.
As a designer, you will find that little things that catch or lead the eye can be very useful in attracting viewer attention.
To be honest, I spent ages faffing about with wordpress and got so frustrated that I knocked that one together pretty quickly .. I will have a bit of a tidy up I think .. maybe just need to sleep on it .. been a frustrating day all round .. ta :-)
I also eliminate borders. They seem to do better for me when they "blend" more.
It's not to bad but I think the advertising immediately sticks out a bit to much. Maybe format the title of the page content better and include a footer as well.

We are getting close to putting out a new ad layout that should improve earnings for authors, while creating more separation of ads from the content. For authors, the most significant change is there will be a 728X90 above the title and the 468X60 (under the title) will be removed along with one...

My Adsense earnings (not the ad program earnings) dropped by two-thirds yesterday yet I have the same amount of traffic as always. This has never happened before. Did I miss some kind of FYI that the page restructuring was going to affect Adsense earnings? This is bunk.

What is your view on the ad placements of the new layout of Hubpages?I've been reading some negative feedback on how the 2 ads are placed at the bottom of the hub. How did the ad placements affect your Ad Program and Adsense revenue?

I'm curious which ad program works best for you? Has anyone figured out why either AdSense or HP ads does better for you? Is it content related possibly?Every time I turn off HP's ads and allow just AdSense to run it seems like I make only a small percentage of what I make with both HP and AdSense...
