I’ve read this in so many places. But…This is no AdSense Secret. It’s been said many, many, many, MANY times: Fewer Ads means higher earnings.
I’ve read this in so many places. But it always gets said by people claiming to make thousands of dollars a month. What about for the people just starting out? Well, even for the little guys, putting fewer AdSense ads on a site will increase the Cost per Click (CPC) of an ad.
Here’s my theory on that.
Google is out to make money. If you have 12 ads on your site, of course Google will try to put the high-paying ads on your page, but if it runs out of those, it will put what it can onto your page. Now you have to hope your visitors are clicking on a high-paying ad. BUT, if you put 3 WELL PLACED ads on your site, Google still tries to serve the high paying ads, and if a visitor clicks the ad, voila, you earn more (and GOOGLE earns more).
– Do I honestly think this works? DEFINITELY!
– How well? It increased the CPC of ads on one of my blogs by 10 to 20 times. Fair enough, this was from a VERY few cents, to NOT very few cents…
So, remember, you now have an AdSense Secret to success. But I think that if everybody followed this theory, EVERYBODY who uses AdSense would benefit. I mean, if you are only showing 3 high-paying ads, this would mean that those people bidding low amounts would have to “up” their bid to get viewed, meaning still more high-paying ads…
So, spread the word… This could be quite a secret to success for everybody.
