Adsense Tips from Google

Yesterday, I received a call by a lady from Google Adsense team about optimizing some ads on one of my sites. She gave me few tips on how to optimize the ads on the pages to bring in more clicks and better eCPM.

Out of those, the one I would like to point out is this:

Test all your link placements on a page (may be sitewide) with the help of channels. Then find the placement which is giving you the maximum CTR. This many not be giving the maximum revenue, but maximum CTR.

Now edit the HTML of your page is such a manner that the visible appearance of your page is not changed, but that ad placement (which is bringing in high CTR) should come as the first ad from the Google adsense.

This will surely bring in more revenue as Google serves high paying ads first, followed by lower paying ones. So the ad-block which is coming first in the html of the page will be serving the highest paying ads. This may not be visibly the top ad placement.

I hope this small Adsense tip may be useful to my readers too.

[BTW: Sorry for not writing a post from such a long time. I was more than busy with things. Chemotherapy case study will be coming soon.]

    I am doing this for a long time.

    But,is there any difference between ad units and link units.

    Link units no matter what position have much lower PPC.

    So i am suspect that this one is true only for adunits.

    What do you think Jim?

    Welcome back Jim

    Hope you have been busy building your empire!

    You are obviously making Google some good money for them to call you and offer help to make more. That is a compliment.

    Nice tips , I am waiting for her to call me :)

  10. Akshay responded on 25 Sep 2008 at 4:58 am #

    I fail to understand why would a lady call only you and then tell you these tips which are not available on the internet. (If Google had to reveal such a tip, then they would ideally hav posted it on the Official Adsense blog)

    If that had been the case, then we would already hve seen many people already bloggin about it (especially Adsense publishers in the US which earn far more)

    Welcome back Jim. Great tip, thanks for that.
    Looking forward to the next eChemotherapy case study ;-)

    i doubt google adsense called india to talk to you.

  13. NoName responded on 26 Sep 2008 at 7:47 pm #

    Google Adsense has only email customer support, I guess Jim forgot that and made this story. If these tips helped you then don’t focus on the story.

  14. Hardip Patel responded on 28 Sep 2008 at 12:06 am #

    Jim,

    PR dropped!!! Why so?? As per my knowledge you are updating your blog frequently with good content and true story..

    Anyways, what is the status of Echemotherapy…:)

  15. Problogineer responded on 28 Sep 2008 at 8:27 pm #

  16. Ram responded on 30 Sep 2008 at 4:44 am #

    I dunno why soome of the guys here are very surprised at call from Google..

    Its google duty to call the webmasters who are earning a lot for them.They need not call every one as said by someone on top.If they do so ,its nothing but damaging there brand !!

    @bull

    hehehe
    They have a ISD facility to dial International users

    And for your information google has got 4 offices in India.

    Hello Jim !
    Nice to see u after long time.
    Really its a nice tip by a Google-Lady who personally called you.
    Actually, this is your hard work turned to luck now, which lead google calling you to improve it’s own as well as your Ad revenues.
    ….. while we all don’t know how long shall we keep waiting for a personnel call from Google-Lady…lol

  19. Dhirender yadav responded on 04 Oct 2008 at 5:03 am #

    I don’t believe that google will call some one to share some tips, they have loads of other things to do.

    M i right?

    Hi Jim

    I think the readers on this site are eagerly awaiting your chemo site update.

    Quick question for you - I notice you use a 250×250 ad layout side-by-side below the headline on the echemotherapy site. Is this adsense layout the best you have found as a result of your testing ( overall ) in terms of CTR/Earnings.

    Nice post. Thanks

    …Chemotherapy case study will be coming soon…

    This blog is going way downhill.

    Jim must be very busy.

  38. Webmaster Forum responded on 20 Oct 2008 at 4:26 am #

    yea enjoying the chemotherapy updates

  39. Jack responded on 24 Oct 2008 at 10:47 pm #

    I believe Jim is experiencing a big loss in earnings because of some recent google algo changes to wipe out spammy content, thus no time for updates on the blog.

    I am a competitor to some of his websites and I’ve seen him sunk.

    I could be wrong though…

    Anyhow, we’d all like to see you to take 5 minutes and post an update on what’s going on, what’s new and what not.

  40. Me responded on 24 Oct 2008 at 10:57 pm #

    Lookslike he had time to delete one of my comments but not to make a post himself. Or even comment himself…

  41. Me responded on 26 Oct 2008 at 12:22 am #

    Honestly. I think this site will be down bwfore xmas.

  42. anonymous responded on 26 Oct 2008 at 1:28 am #

    Now seriously..

    I always suspected his earnings, though he is good wid his stuff and very much convincing.

    May be JimKarter.com is just one of his other sites (if other sites exost at all), which has managed to bore him to the extent of … discarding it of his to-dos…

    Come what may, he has definitely portrayed his dedication towards loyal readers and all those who belived in him….

    I recall reading his post yesterday on DP, uhh… that was 3 days old..

    hehe.. im outta his readership list… good luck to all you guyz..

    Regards,
