5 Ways How to Make Money with Google Adsense Part 3

Posted by Ray Harvard on Thursday, September 4th 2008

Like me you may be struggling hard to make money online from your Adsense Earnings.
So I took a look around and found 5 Ways to help Make Money with Google Adsense.

Rather than bombard you with one long boring post, I’ve split it into 5 bite size chunks so here we go with Part 3.

Move your Adsense Ads – Above the Fold

Do not try to hide your Adsense sections.

Don’t bury them at the bottom of your pages where your visitors may never go.

Put them in places where people can see them quickly.

One of the main tips I’ve found is to place your Adsense ads above the fold.

This is an old newspaper term that meant placing your best items on the upper half of the front page.

This is because most papers are delivered and displayed folded with only the top half of the front page being visible, so stories or adverts in this portion get maximum visibility.

In a similar way, in computer terms it means putting items nearer the top of a web page which for most visitors will be seen without having to scroll down.

How Adsense Locations can make a Difference to your Adsense Earnings

See Google’s Adsense help page
Where should I place Google ads on my pages ?

This shows a “heat map” which illustrates the ideal places on a web page for your Adsense Ads that may help you improve your Adsense Earnings.

However they also mention:

“We strongly recommend putting your users first when deciding on ad location.
Think about their behaviour on different pages, and what will be most useful and visible to them.
You’ll find that the most optimal ad position isn’t always what you expect on certain pages”
