Hi guys,

Could i just ask does Google really have a problem with the 336x280 ad block being positioned top left of the page ? Its been the standard position for years but i`ve read afew times now that it should be positioned top right ?

The whole thing is getting crazy being as Google positions it top left !

I`m always worried about my adsense account now i think its because its never been more healthy i`m making crazy money at the moment (well crazy for me $200+ days) but every page has the ad block top left and the site is built on the CTR theme, I read about the many warriors here adsense accounts that getting shut by for no reason

Then i start to think there must be 100`s of 1000`s Adsenses accounts out there the Warrior forum is so small on the scale of things afew guys on here have had a problem maybe self inflicted like in the past the misleading placment of ads and of course clicking your own ads, but also reading some of the latest horror storys it does seem like there are innocent webmasters too and its these that worry you isn`t it !

And of those 100`s of 1000`s of adsense accounts out there there are some terrible violations of adsense TOS going off and other bad adsense practices with adsense ads on auto blogs, curation sites with just images and adsnse on the page, spun content ect i dont know if this is violation of TOS or not

But to think i`m sat here worried about the ad placement and if it should be top left or top right is a awful feeling do any of you guys feel like this or is it just me

I guess another problem is my sites are made to make money from adsense i do use the CTR theme but i also have 120 pages of great content from 700 to 1000 words each page and i`ve tryed to make it really helpful, It ranks great thought inner page linking which was my big light bulb moment that instead of building crappy backlinks use articles on your own site as the backlink wow that was the moment it all changed

Anyway sorry for the boring post

James

    Why should it matter whether it's "right or left"? This question does not make any sense for itself.

    It will only matter when there are other site-elements on the page which would make it "better" to move the block to either side, for example, if there would be one horizontal ad bar on the left ALREADY it would make sense thinking about moving the block to the other side. (Because otherwise you will have two ad blocks on ONE side)

    It will really highly depend on your site and what's on your site and how the blocks fit in. I consider a statement like "adsense block left=BAD and right=GOOD" pure nonsense.

    Hi George,

    I`m not asking if its `Better` i was asking if Google actually had a problem with it being placed on the left as part of Googles adsense best practices they changed some thing around lately didn`t they ?

      For Google it doesn't matter is your ad left or right, nonsense.
