Where is the Best Adsense Placement?
Sorry, THIS POST IS OUTDATED, SEE MY UPDATED Adsense Optimized Heat Map HERE!!!
If you have noticed, I’ve put on some Adsense ads finally on this blog.
Where is the best placement for the highest paying Adsense ad?
Well, it’s simple, it’s the 336×280 pixel size right on top of your post.
Although I’ve proved it to myself already, there’s also this blog post you can check out that shows which ad performs the best.
What are my goals?
Well, I will attempt to start making money on this blog, talking about how to optimize your ads to make more money from your blog.
Other things I’ve done to increase CTR
As you can see in the above screenshot, I took the motorcycle out. It’s because it takes up WAY too much valuable advertising space, which is the top-left corner.
With those changes and Adsense ads on top/bottom of post plus a 160×600 sidebar ad, we will see how much money we can make over the next year or so.
Mind you, I probably won’t make that much money with this blog as there’s literally not enough traffic.
On the next post, I will explain further how to make more money with web traffic and show you how it correlates to everything.

[...] Well, lady luck seemed to be on my side during those months when I couldn’t even afford to buy decent dinner for my family as that’s how everything changed when I simply placed AdSense ads before the content. [...]

I totally agree that the 336×280 ad block placed top left, is reputedly the best performer for CTR. Sometimes you just cant fit it into your blog to get the right look, I've found that a 468×60 banner centered at the top of each page and post performs just as good.

I am going to try it with the ads above the content on each post and see what happens.
