Google AdSense program has made it easier for webmasters to make money through a website. Webmasters who run an AdSense campaign will display Google's contextual Ads relevant to the content of their sites and thus encouraging visitors to click the ads and earn money for each ad click.

Many people build a website or blog with dreams of creating huge amounts of Adsense revenue. These dreams generally finish after months of frantically driving visitors to their sites through marketing campaigns, only failing to convert visits into clicks.

How to Increase Your Ad sense Revenue

1.Primacy is defined as the state of being first, or foremost. People in general have a short attention span, but it gets even shorter when on the web. It is important to have your Adsense banner near the top of the page. If they have to scroll to see it, there is a good chance they will move on before even noticing the banner. This can be hard to do and keep your website looking professional, but it is possible. You may have to forgo this step on some of your pages to keep the integrity of your site.

2. Focus on one Adsense ad format. The Large Rectangle (336X280) ad format seems to work better than other ad formats because this format tends to result in higher click through rates (CTR). Another reason is that the ads will look like normal web links that visitors use to click on them. It doesn't matter whether the visitors know that they are clicking AdSense ads or not, as long as there are clicking, you earn AdSense commission.

3.You should take your time and develop an Adsense banner that will blend into your website. People are more apt to click on an advertisement if they don’t know it’s an ad. If they are interested in the ad, they will click on the link provided without thinking twice. This is also a good way to prevent your website from looking tacky. Garishly colored advertisements are highly noticeable and will increase the bounce rate on your site. It can ruin the look of your site and is an insult to the eyes.

4. Create a custom palette for your ads. Select a color that matches your website's background. If your site's background is white both, the color of ad border and background should set to be white too. Also the color of the ad title should be similar to coloe of the links in your website. This is to make your AdSense ads look like it is part of the web pages. Again, this will boost AdSense CTR.

5.If you are able to wrap your content around the advertisements, it will greatly help to increase adsense revenue. The advertisements will look like part of your text. This will make it much more natural for readers to click on an ad. They are already interested in what you have to say, and now they are being given an option to continue on that topic. Increasing Adsense revenue is about providing your readers with good content, and a way to continue exploring that content.

6. Don't place your AdSense ads at the bottom of your webpages because it is proven to be less effective. Displaying your AdSense ads at the bottom is like hiding your AdSense and thus leads to low CTR and AdSense revenue. Try to put them in the place where people can see them quickly. You will be amazed how the difference between AdSense locations can make when you see your earnings.

7.The Google Adsense program runs off on content. If you are unable to write specific enough content for Google to know what you are talking about, the ads may be untargeted. This is because Google has to guess. Keywords aren’t just for driving organic traffic, they are essential to obtaining relevant advertisements on your site. Without relevance, your ads will lose meaning.

8.Try to place your AdSense ads near rich content as visitors main focus usually are your content. There are several ways to insert AdSense ads into your content and one of the ways is place your AdSense just after the end of your content

9.Different types of people will click on different types of ads. One of the best ways to cater to everyone is to create banners with different styles. You can experiment with each one and see which converts best. There is nothing wrong with a little trial and error.

10.Try to automate the insertion of your AdSense code into the webpages using SSI (or server side included). Ask your web administrator if your server supports SSI or not. How do you do it? Just save your AdSense code in a text file, name it as “AdSense text”, and upload it to the root directory of the web server. Then use SSI, call the code on other pages. This tip is a time saver especially for those who are using automatic page generators to generate pages on their website.

11.It is important to know which pages are converting and which ones aren’t. Google allows you to create up to 200 channels. Why not utilize them all. This way you can narrow down on your non-earning channels and optimize them through trial and error. Use what Google has to offer. They provide these tools because they want you to succeed. If you are making money, so are they.

12.Finally, and obviously, you need to increase traffic. The more traffic you have, the more Adsense revenue you will create. It is as simple as that. Unfortunately gaining that extra traffic is not so simple, but that is a topic for another post.

Increasing Adsense revenue is about perseverance and hard work. You will need to put in the time and effort to try multiple different approaches before you can rest. Learn from others. If you are a fan of a successful blog, see how they did it. Where do they put their banners? Emulate them because they are successful.
