I have blog which receives traffic more than 1000 from similar niche forums, search engines, blog comments, social bookmarkings but the irony is I only get 3-4 clicks on my adsense each day. Is my ads placement is not right or users have gone ad blind.
Please help.

    It could be your niche is too big. For example, "make money online" is a big niche whereas "make money online in day trading" is a more targeted niche where adsense will display ads that will match "make money online in day trading"

    My niche is my sig link. Any suggestion as how to focus on adsense rather than on pictures. As there are others who do the same, like thesuperficial.com but I doubt they have a low revenue like me from adsense.
    Your help is appreciated.

      Couple ideas for you:
      1. Dont'n use graphic ads - it doesn't mach to you content! - no one will click.
      2. Put ads into right places - before and after the text (watch how it have to be in Investment Strategies And Online Trading Tips)
      3. Use smaller niche - select only ONE of celebs and use it (I hate Gibbson but I like Britney) - you'll get less trafic - BUT MUCH MORE CLICKS - your adds will be more relevant!

    preferably put ads on the right side bar and keep posts relevant as possible

      I have put ads on the sidebar and all my posts are relevant to my niche only. Still no success with that. Todays my adsense reports shows 531 impressions and only 1 click.

      monetize my blog.

    I have heard that certain types of sites are not all that good for Adsense, and celebrity sites are one of these types of site.

    Sounds like you're getting some good traffic, why not have a look at some CPM ads?

    Try changing the headings of your ads so they stand out

    For example, make them red.

    Currently they blend too well, but still look like ads.

      I heard it that you should blend your ads in your contents now changing the header color to red is another experiment I am doing. Lets believe this changes my luck.

        You should test a few things. Try testing the easy things first like ad color. Then you could also move the ads.

        With that much traffic - it may be better to sell something else.

        Adsense may not work well in that niche. It pays pretty low.

          Please tell me what else to sell for my niche as Adsense is not doing well.

    You should search for a post on this forum called
    "Follow me to $100 a day in Adsence in 3 months with one blog"
