Default Quadrupled my CTR thanks to DP members.

Here is great post on increasing your adsense earnings:

Hiya DP'ers (what is the collective name for DP forum members?)

Big thanks to member "www.AmCy.org" and their site Student Credit Cards and the post in this thread

I made the change to my site, putting images above the ads, and my CTR has been 400% the average these last 2 days. This is not a spike, my CTR has been +- 25% for the last 2 months.

The changes I made:



The link units were always there, but by adding images above the leaderboard it has increased CTR, even though it is now below the fold.

I made this change on all pages of my site, moving the ads down and putting images above them.

To make it look nicer on some pages where I did have two leaderboards I now only have the one and CTR is still up.

Also the images are a select few taken from the gallery (where people draw pigs) and are random to stop it getting boring.

I can highly recomend doing this. Tho I think it is best at the bottom of the page as ads + images will take up the top 3rd of the fold and, well, think of the poor users scroll wheels...

...Content is still king
