If webmasters want to monetize their websites, they oftentimes turn to Adsense. The “geniuses” of Adsence are enjoying hundreds of dollars a day driven from those ads on their websites. At the same time, there are lots of webmasters struggling hard to earn some good money and not always succeeding.
What makes the successful webmasters different from the other kind is that they think out of the box and employed creative solutions even with such a seemingly simple thing as Adsense.
The ones who have been there and done it have an array of useful tips to help those who would want to venture into this field. Some of these tips have boosted quite a lot of earnings in the past and are continuing to do so.
Here are some 5 proven ways on how best to improve your Adsense earnings.
1. Concentrate on just one format of Adsense ad. The one format that worked well for the majority is the Large Rectangle (336X280). This format has the tendency to result in higher CTR, or the click-through rates. Why choose this format out of the many you can use? Basically, because the ads will look like normal web links, and people, being used to clicking on them, click these types of links. They may or may not know they are clicking on your Adsense but why should you care? As long as there are clicks, it will all be for your advantage.
2. Create a custom palette for your ads. Choose a color that will go well with the background of your site. If your site has a white background, try to use white as the color of your ad border and background. The idea to patterning the colors is to make the Adsense look like it is part of the web page. Again, this will result in more clicks from people visiting your site.
3. Remove the Adsense from the bottom of your pages and put them at the top. Do not try to hide your Adsense. Put them in the place where people can see them quickly. You will be amazed at what a difference the Adsense locations can make when you see your earnings.
4. Maintain links to relevant websites. If you think some sites are better off than the others, put your ads there and try to maintain and manage them. If there is already lots of Adsense put into that certain site, put yours on top of all of them. That way visitor will see your ads first upon browsing into that site.
5. Try to automate the insertion of your Adsense code into the webpages using SSI, or server side included. (You may have to ask your web administrator if your server supports SSI or not.) How do you do it? Just save your Adsense code in a text file, save it as "adsense text", and upload it to the root directory of the web server. Then using SSI, call the code on other pages. This tip is a time saver especially for those who are using automatic page generators to create pages on their website.
These are some of the tips that have worked well for many webmasters helping them to generate hundreds and even thousands off of their websites. It is important to remember, though, that ads are displayed because it fits the interest of the people viewing them. So focusing on a specific topic should be your primary goal.
Also you should note that there are many other Adsense sharing the same topic with you. It is best to think of making a good ad that will be somewhat different and unique. Every click that a visitor makes means a point for you, try to make your Adsense something that people will definitely click on.
Tips given by those who have boosted their earnings are just guidelines they want to share with others. If they have somehow worked wonders for some, maybe it can work wonders for you too. Try them out in your ads and see the result they will bring.
