One important thing that I would like to suggest is always follow AdSense guidelines and never ask your users in any way to click your Ads. At the same time choose the most appropriate positions for your ads to boost AdSense revenue.
Many bloggers believe that blog traffic is always directly proportional to their AdSense earnings. But it’s never true at all for AdSense earning. Since your AdSense earning depends upon a no. of factors like Placement of Ads, Traffic Source, and AdSense CPC etc.
So if you are doing Keyword Research, I always suggest to look at CPC column specially. Higher the CPC is, greater will be your AdSense earning. It means you should choose the higher CPC keywords since they are more profitable for you. Anyhow, let’s move to our main point and learn some advance tips to increase your AdSense revenue.
Size and Location of AdSense Ad:
Size and location of your Ads on your site really contribute a lot towards your AdSense earnings. Try to put your ads at those points which are more visible to your visitors. Blending your ads colors with your site design really helps a lot to increase your AdSense revenue.
Try AdSense Link and Text Ads:
One another thing that many bloggers ignore mostly are link ads. Yes I know they are different from the banner ads but they never decrease the CTR of your AdSense. I mostly place Banners ads in the header, above and below the posts and link ads in the sidebar as the related content widget. Always choose the ad sizes that benefits you most. Here are some ad sizes that works really well to increase your AdSense income.
- 336 * 280 (Large Rectangle)
- 300*250:
- 728*90
- 160*600
You can see, Ad size in AdSense really matters a lot.
Traffic Source Organic / USA:
Always remember, AdSense ads really works best when your traffic source is Search Engine. In addition to Search Engine, try targeting rich countries like USA, UK, and Canada which spends more on Ads. Traffic from such countries always work best to increase AdSense revenue. First choose the high CPC keywords, then target organic traffic from USA, UK. You will see it will really boost your AdSense income. Also you can learn the On Page SEO factors that contribute a lot to stand your website at top. Also check out:

AdSense comes with many ways to monetize from your site. So I recommend always to take advantage of all AdSense Ad types. AdSense for search give your website a custom Google search from your website in addition with monetization purposes. So you must try this out to increase your adSense earnings.
Image and Text Ads:
This is absolutely a myth that is developed in blogger’s mind that Image Ads always performs better. I always recommend to go with text ads in the sidebar widget area as Related Content in addition with Banners ads in the Header, beginning of post and at end of post area. So if you are not using Text ads, go for that to decrease the eCPM of your AdSense ads. That’s why, I prefer to use both ad types.
Use Ads between the Posts:
Although, this is considered as bad practice, but if you want to increase your AdSense earnings in a short period of time. You can use this option. This works best when you can configure your Ads appearance exactly to match your blog background color. I have tested this method too, 468*60 and text link ads worked really well for me.You may also like
