Forum Optimization for Better Adsense Performance

July 27th, 2007 by Arnold Zafra | 13 Comments

If you are running a community forum with Adsense placement and yet can’t seem to get significant earnings, Inside Adsense suggest these three Adsense performance optimization which might actually increase the Adsense earnings of those community forums:

  1. The Welcome Ad Box - Place a large rectangle (Ad units 336 X 280) or medium rectangle (Ad Units 300 x 250) either next to this welcome box or immediately below it. This is the first item that forum members and guests see upon entering a forum’s site, thus placing Adsense immediately after this box might give some valid click throughs of the ad units,
  2. The Forum Post Ad - Preferably right after the 1st post box of a particular topic, forum users always read the first post of a particular topic before scanning the succeeding post box. If a user finds the topic interesting and decided to read the posts, it is safer that the ad units is the next item that the forum member sees. It might actually bringing valid clicks and increase your CTR (click through rates),
  3. Blending colors and breaking down borders - Although the “ads by Google” branding in all Adsense units should not be removed intentionally, blending the colors of Adsense units with the over all theme of the forum might pull some considerable number of ad units click. But honestly, forum members know that once they click on the Adsense units, it would lead them outside of the forum, so most “literate” forum members tend to avoid those Adsense units. But if you are lucky, you might actually get some accidental and yet valid clicks.

But of course, Adsense units in community forums like ordinary blogs or websites, should also be implemented with section targeting for relevant ads to be displayed in the various parts of community forums.

I used to run a no-niche/general theme forums before, and honestly I don’t really get considerable Adsense earnings from that forum that’s why I decided to shut it down. But I might have implemented it in a wrong way though. So if you’ve been trying to get some significant Adsense revenue from your forums and still fail, you might want to give these three tips a shot. Then email the Inside Adsense blogger for a great tip.

    Seriously, I think the Google Ads are not optimized yet. With Google’s current revenue, I believe they should come up with more flexibility in terms of ad dimensions.

    I think it just depends. Forum that people really like people tend to stay in. I heard the clickthough rate is much smaller on forums anyway. But intersting. I’m sure it will help if you have a lot of traffic to your site.

    I never had any luck with adsense on Discussion forums. The CTR is little tiny, may be its a different story if you have a large number of guests.
    I will try out your Tips though. Thanks

    What a spammer…Oh i am referring to the one in the comment. Anyway Adsense can bring in generous dollars if it is targeted correctly. Placing your adsense ads at the right place can get you lots of click throughs. Similarly, placing it in the wrong place will end up with only a few cents a month. Good article.

    Earning his trust as a buddy is necessary. Dont disclose your intimate desires and inmost feelings for him speedily. If he is a sincere guy, he will never let your acquaintance go, in spite of knowing that you are gay.Give him sufficient time and space to think over your sexuality. Maybe, this is for the head time in his life he has heard a man professing affection for him. So, he will definitely prerequisite some time to get over with the confusion. He can even become very much scared. Never force him to fall in dear with you. Instead, get closer to him gradually. Try not to have sex cogently with him by any channel. Too much of queer persuasion can have tragic consequences. So, be careful.If you are successful in unindustrialized a strong bond of attachment with him, then your process of seducing him gets easier. Once, your relationship reaches such a level that you two cannot live without each more, then attracting him sexually wont be that challenging. Remember the tagline of the awesome stockman-romance Brokeback Mountain that says Love is a force of nature. The movie depicts a multifaceted and impassioned adoration affair between two cowboys. One of them, though straight, could not limit himself from decreasing in passion with additional man. The force named feeling is so sturdy that it can brand one mien fall in passion with any further individual; sometimes even the gender of the individual becomes worthless.

    Some of my friends run community forums and they say that niche blogs have good CTR than forums. I think in discussion forums the visitors are only interested in spawning a thread.
