Apply good sense to adsense makes more sense to me although I don’t get any revenue from other advertising I do ok with Google less is more sense or more or less right, COOL.

Thanks, Gareth.

This is a very interesting article and I am always in search of ways to increase my adsense earnings. Half the time I check with my eyes closed when I pull up m account then open them to see that killer adsense earning day-but it has not happened yet same old single digit earning day. Hopefully this will show a difference-I’m off now to decrease adsense off my site because my earnings are funnier than my website and my website is damn funny!!!

Alex – You make a valid point. Although Google have toned down the language they use, you still need to be careful that other ads that appear on the same page don’t look like AdSense blocks. This shouldn’t be a problem for most, but it is definitely worth drawing people’s attention to this point – thanks.

Travel – The advantage to only displaying one ad is that you are only showing the advert that pays you the most money. However, by showing two or three you will be displaying ads that are a little bit different and may appeal to a wider variety of visitors.

I find that one or two AdSense blocks on a page is more than enough. As a compromise, how about using a ‘Quick Links’ block, and a ‘Content’ block? This way the ads should appeal to a wide variety of your visitors and should still pay decent revenue.

Excellent article. One question would be. If I put only an ad showing one ad? any experience with it?
