I did look for the answer on Google but none of the results were satisfactory. Will you please tell me what is the current pay rate of Adsense ads? and which one should I use? Text or Image?

    You should go with text only ads. The reason is simple, image ads get clicked more often and they usually pay less per click as a direct result. Also, a lot of the image ads are really untargeted to the content displayed in your site usually.

    You should split test text only vs image only with a week for each ad, but I'm pretty sure you'll end up with the same conclusions I have.

      Do you really think people are going to click on text ads? I had a very disappointing experience a year ago when I used to blog about gaming.

        It really depends upon the niche, yours is a perfect example of that.. Not only do gaming sites have a slightly lower CTR but also gamers are about images.

          So I should go for a split test? What type of Adsense ads do you use?
