What's Better: Ads Floating to the Left or to the Right?

6 replies
Does anyone have first-hand experience (or an educated opinion) on the following?

When wrapping AdSense ads around the article body, do you see more success displaying the ad on the right or the left side of the body? Which do you think works best for the human eye?

    Left side have more conversions in my experience.

    They both suck. Put the ads embedded in the content or you won't earn a damn thing.

    I always test this amongst other placements and haven't found consistencies. I'd recommend just keep testing to see what makes more money.

    The difference is really minor, and not the same across all websites.

    You'll need to do your own testing to figure out which one is best for you. Figure out which one performs better, then test it against other positions like right below first paragraph and right below title.

    Why not give a try and start split testing both the placements on the site so you can judge for yourself. See different people will have different results according to the site structure and niches that they are involved in.
