I hope a lot of you have noticed that I have had adsense on my blog even though I am really against it 99% of the time on my blogs. I have been running it to see how it converts and whether its comparable to placing an advert on my blog in those slots.
Sadly its not but it did teach me a few things that I think are important to note. Read along and see some places that you may not have thought about placing ads of any kind!
Sidebar Real estate- When I first placed adsense on my sidebar I put it towards the bottom, then later moved it to the middle below my categories and finally to the top above everything else.
Since doing so I noticed that the middle section actually converted better then the lower or upper part. This baffels me because usually the higher things are up on the page the better then convert, however because I have more then 1 post per page I think some people scrolled down to see the other posts and when they looked to the right sidebar the ads were there and they clicked.
Its important to note this and you may want to try adsense on your own blog like this and track the clicks you get in each area. Every site and blog is different and you never know what hot spots might be goldmines for you, especially if your doing a ppc or affiliate offer!
Affiliate Offers- I have only run 1 true affiliate offer on my blog thus far, but I am excited because ClickBooth called me up and wants me to start running there offers, they believe it will really work for me and I am excited to get them onto my blog this week!
Lets hope it can generate some extra income for me right? If and when it does I will be sure to report you all what I have done / learned so you can replicate the success I have. Or atleast you will know what not to do!

do any of the offers you see on tv on buying real estate cheap work or the internet businesses I want to do something in my spare time I don’t intend to leave my job I just see these adds an wouldn’t mind tryin something I have money to invest so I don’t need the buy with nothing one .thanks if you have any ideas or have used any
In my opinion, there is no hot spots for all the blogs, example: Perhaps you have good convert earning with the middle Adsense ads, while some other people get better earning with the upper or lower part. With that said, we have to really test it ourselves in our blog to see which spot is the hottest one. It’s the most challenging part when it comes to earning.
Do update us your Clickbooth earning okay? Good luck dude!

Take your real estate classes but also take a basic accounting course, real estate law, any finance course and a course in public speaking. Don’t laugh, you will use all those courses through your career.
Whether taking college courses along with taking real estate classes from various real estate companies or independent real estate schools be aware of the market you are in. Also talk to lenders so you know some of what is needed for your buyers.
If you start on the Sellers side you will be on the losing end of every transaction as most seasoned agents know who is new, knows the contingencies that will let them get out of the contract and you will be left standing holding the bag.
I am in escrow on some property in which the seller and his real estate agent were not very forthcoming in their disclosure statements. Through a third party I found out some things about the property that are detriments (such as occassional flooding) but I am willing to overlook them and still purchase the property.
My real estate agent happened to tell the seller’s real estate agent that we found out some of these things on the property – most importantly about the flooding – and now the selling real estate agent wants me to sign a bunch of documents listing out what I found out as if she had told me about them.
I am asking if a real estate agent can legally force me to sign informal and misleading documents in order to progress with the purchase? The seller and I have already signed all legal documents as outlined in our legal contract.
You have a LEGAL AND BINDING CONTRACT. all disclosures within the contract should be what the seller knows about the property. Now the other agent cannot FORCE you to sign anything.
Let her off what hook? If you’re still willing to purchase the property, even after knowing all the things that are wrong with it, where’s the hook? Unless you’re planning on suing one of them after the deal is closed.
@Unique Gift Ideas,
Hey dude, you left so many comments in a post? I’m sure TS will figure it out. Try to leave your opinion in 1 comment but not splitting them. lol..Good luck!

@make money online,
Are you serious, adsense is the first thing we can implement easily on our blog.
@Eriuqs Spires Healthy Recreation,

@Eriuqs Spires Healthy Recreation,
Hmm, it’s not easiest and fastest actually. If you’re talking about placing Adsense ads into blog, Yes it’s fastest. If you’re talking about make money with Adsense, No It’s not the easiest. You need to do alot of works such as SEO, then only you can make lots of money from Adsense.

There is really no doubting that there are amazing incomes currently being made on Google Adsense and the really interesting thing is that even relatively small sites and blogs are finding new ways to make money from their Adsense sites every day.
@Personal Injury Lawyer,
Very true, adsense is the fastest and easiest way form of making money online.
@Eriuqs Spires Healthy Recreation,
Adsense is not the fastest and easiest way to make money online, it requires hardwork and some SEO technique. If you’re good in SEO, you win the game.

Most bloggers have ads on the right sidebar, if you look at heatmaps or eye tracking studies, they might work better on the left navigation bar.
Another thing why ads on middle sections were clicked most might be length of your posts
@Jeet, But if it will be placed on the left, SEO of that page might suffer.
@Jeet, I like ads in the content.
I haven’t understand much about it …

I think high traffic is more important for addsence. And some serious readers like me those click on them for your benifit
@India property, yeah you are right high traffic mean more money
It maybe worth giving click density a try, so that you can see the hotspots of where site users mouse cursors hover. You can play around with the advert positions and see the effect it has on a pages hotspots.
I think I am going down now.
@Eriuqs Spires Healthy Recreation,
I don’t know what to do now with this one.
@Eriuqs Spires Healthy Recreation,
Keep writing good content, insert Google Adsense and keep track. SEO needed to be done well if you want to make more money with Adsense.

I still need to get adsense monetized into my new design, so this information should be helpful for when I actually get around to it. It’s quite interesting that the middle is more effective than the top…
You are right this information is really very helpful.Whenever i use to read this sit i found many useful knowledge and tools. Its really a great post.
Affiliate is a program where you’re working with a company, you’ll get paid for every sales that you bring to the company.
did anyone find out what the offer was?
@Make Money Online, Not yet but still trying for that. Let it solve by time.
Hi, I signed up to Adsense but the ads on my blog are on top of my text. I want to change them to the sidebar on the right. What should I do??
@Pat Testers,
Change that in your layout / page element if you are using blogger blogspot blog.
@Pat Testers,
What blog platform you’re using? Blogspot and WordPress might have different procedure of changing the location of ads.

There are so many options available in the market for investing in real estate including using ad sense too for earning more and more.
@ebay tools,
yes, to many choices to earn money online.
I think it is really so difficult way to place the ad sense ad at your site that place should be changed time to time so better result.
@Make Money Online,
Yea, we have to always change the placement of adsense ads to see which place brings you the most clicks. It’s trial and error process, just place and keep track the result.

Lee
@Make Money Online,
Essential part of making money thru adsense is proper placement.
know anything about working for this company? They contacted me first by getting my resume of a website so I’m leary of a company that recruits in that fashion for some reason.
I need to be able to incentivize the offers so consumers complete the credit card applications. I understand credit card companies give incentives such as free points or miles.
@Unique Gift Ideas,
Speaking of credit card uses, we must also see to it that our customers can feel secure when using it.
I always do experiments with adsense placement and color combination. It usually isn’t the same even for different niches…
@webkinz,
You are right, also, people’s web activity differs with every niche. Also demographics will play an important role.
Why are you so against using Google Ad Sense?
@Paul,
Not everyone can make money from Adsense. In order to make money with Adsense, you may need to know a little bit about SEO and blogging techniques.
Regards,
Lee
@Make Money Doing Online Surveys, I just wonder why this blogger doesnt like it.
Looks Interesting – You are against of using adsense tool on your blog & even then you write a quality post about where to display ads on your site. It is too confusing.
@mediums, I agree…confusing
@mediums,
Which is quite effective and useful eh.
I think its because of the the placement and the numbers of post you have in the main page. But usually its the topmost ads that get more attention. Not sure about your blog though.
@Rome Flights,
“topmost ads that get more attention” are the ads that generate more clicks and do have higher price value.
Do those block ads on the right side make any money? There is so much going on over there.
@Earn money writing,
Maybe? But nobody know only owner knows. Perhaps some of them are direct advertiser.

Lee
Good luck with the clickbooth thing! I myself haven’t been doing as great with Adsense either but luckily I’ve found some other ways that work for me.
I’m not giving up on it though. I still have the ads on my page as I feel it’s the most legit and probably easiest way to earn online if you find your niche and figure out how to bring traffic to your blog/site.
@TriNi – make money online free,
Time will come for you to earn more. Persistence is the key.
@Filipino Food, even i am trying the clickbooth i feel its very nice to use it ..hope very soon i will get my first sale
There may be various fields available in real estate. So be specialized in any one field according to your interest.
I’m pretty glad you actually annouced it. That lets me know that you care about your readers and you want them to feel at ease that you are not just trying to make. Me personally.
@Camera, i like it too may be some of the members required it it will help both u and visitor
So any thing new here?
You won’t be their employee but an independent person with your own e-commerce business. If that sounds exciting then you should find out more about affiliate programs.
It’s impossible to know which monotization method is best for your site without trial and error. I find that a lot of people tend to just stick with what they know, usually adsense.
@Camera,
I agree with you, all of these are depending on trial and error because all of them are different. Perhaps you make good earning with Adsense, but I make good earning with affiliate program. It goes same to ads placement.

Hey Shannon ~ I’ve never done a whole lot with Adsense but I’d like to use it more. That was a great idea to move it up and down the side bar … and when I get mine set up I’ll borrow this idea.
