Hi,
Do you ever tested if it is a good idea to blend google ads to the content like same color and etc, or just use it with default colors?
As for now I am using default colors but considering to blend it more to the content...

    I personally think that blending ads are better than the contrasting ones. The idea here is that when you use contrasting ads on your website, your readers/viewers will know that you're doing this only for the money.
    On the other hand, if you have great content, nice design, good SEO, a blending ad will be better. The ad shouldn't be there to make you money, it should be there to assist the reader.

      Not true. The majority of people have never even heard about AdSense, let alone other ad platforms. They have no clue they are ads even if they are completely different from your site's link colors, and they do not care.

      Even if you place, 'ads from Google' above them they will not even think twice about it, and how it is making you money.

    So they totally skip the part where "AdChoices" is written on every ad box?
    However, there have been times in which I don't see this label on those 700 pixel horizontal boxes.
    I'm going with blended ads on Heatmap theme.
