AngelaCea said: "Why man :confused: Google tells you not to mess with the code man! :eek: :eek:"

chris3471 said: "I just think it would blend in better at the bottom of the tower. Of course what I meant was does Google provide a way to do this when you are configuring your code. :eek:"

AngelaCea said: "You have better things to worry about man, believe me! :eek:"

edwin said: "nope, you can't change it! google does it to brand."

chris3471 said: "I figured that. :("

edwin said: "thats why google is big brother :)"

chris3471 said: "Ok here's some stats: in the last 7 days this is counting today up to the minute. I have attached an image so you can see the stats for individual days. 714 pageloads of which 160 were uniques AdSense for content clicks 12 That breaks down to 1 click for every 60 pageloads All 12 clicks came from 3 pages so I'm looking at those pages and trying to change my ad styles and placement on other pages to match. I'm using channels to track individual ad units so I can see if the changes are better or worse. My question is this: Is this average 12 clicks for 714 pageloads or should my ctr be higher?"

AngelaCea said: "Most CTR's over a large amount of pages are only 1.5% or so, a lot of folks make claims of 35% but I don't really think that is possible with a large cross section of pages! :o"

chris3471 said: "I made a lot of color changes tonight and while I was doing it I noticed at least half of my pages didn't have the adsense search box, somehow I forgot to change them from the normal search boxes I had put on my site before I got approved for AdSense. I guess that would explain why I didn't get hardly any clicks for search. I wonder how much money I missed out on? :eek: :eek:"

edwin said: "if you keep adding pages, at some point you'll want a template and database driven site. otherwise you'll get all kinds of pages with individual coding errors."

LebNights said: "its better to not change google code....but i see much people adding it as: Sponsored Links....not as Ads by gooooooooooooogle"

edwin said: "oh man, they will get kicked out..."

wobseek said: "u can change font and color but not the line on top"

chris3471 said: "You are allowed to put sponsored links above the ads but you can't change the ads by Goooooogle part! :eek:"

thepetemaster said: "Sometimes i don't know why google is so dumb"

edwin said: "you aren't the only one. and they have geniuses working there allegedely."

chris3471 said: "Wow, you dug deep to find this thread."

Heather said: "Nothing quite like finding a great old thread to say nothing in."

chris3471 said: "I know, I've done it before too."

chris3471 said: "By far I think the most important factor is ad placement, second is blending the colors to match your site."

See my site: [URL="http://www.printerservices.info"]http://www.printerservices.info[/URL][/QUOTE] Hi Kids, I took a look at your site, and it has a very professional, polished look to it - nice job. :) Here are some suggestions that may improve your CTR: 1. Replace the 'Monetized by Google AdSense' and 'Firefox with Google Bar' ads with either horizontal banner text ads or horizontal ad links, and eliminate the 'This site thanks to' content. The ads served will be relevant to your content, so your visitors will most likely be more interested in them. 2. Get rid of the border on the vertical skyscraper on the right, and change the colors to match the colors of your website. 3. After reading your content, it's obvious to me that English is not your native language. You may want to pay a copy writer to rewrite the content, as this may foster more trust with your visitors, leading to longer visits and more clicks. ;) HTH, Sam"

WebFreedom said: "Hi Kids, I just took another look at your site, and your changes look good. :) AdSense is already serving targeted ads in the top banner, and this should improve your CTR by quite a bit, I'd imagine. The skyscraper looks good, as well - nice job of blending with your content. Sam"
