I'm trying to improve the CTR with Adsense on my Wordpress sites. Just wondering if anyone has and advice on that from personal research/experience or if you can direct me to a good site that does.

Thank you

There is lots of information here at the WF if you spend some time reading the threads. Also check out Steve Crooks' website at: Adsense 101 Bootcamp New Openings | The Internet Marketing Challenge Blog

I just got through the bootcamp that he runs and would highly recommend it if you are serious about making money with adsense.

  Thanks for the recommendation, it is much appreciated and there are still some spots available on this run.
  
  As for improving your Adsense CTR, there are a number of things you need to do.
  
  1. Test different Adsense placements, sizes, styles etc and use Adsense channels to measure the results of your tests.
  2. Are your Ads relevant to your site? The waters are a little muddy now that Adsense use the doubledart cookie to show other ads. Look at your on page SEO (title tags etc).
  3. Do some section targeting to ensure your ads are more relevant.
  4. Look at where your traffic is coming from. Are they coming from targeted searches on Google or elsewhere?
  
  These are just a few indicators that should help you improve your CTR.
  
  Thanks

  Hey Fortony,
  
  It really is going to depend on what you are using your WordPress blog for. If it is a content rich website and you have a decent following I would recommend not cluttering up your page with advertisements. Your readers want to go to your blog for the valuable information, not to scan through AdSense ads.
  
  Then again, if you have a lot of traffic and getting a lot of clicks on the ads you may want to keep them. Like I said, it all depends.
  
  Thanks

I develop LOTS of WordPress blogs and am always looking for great ways to earn money from them.

The best step-by-step program I personally purchased and have had success with is with John "Xfactor" methods.

Some of the best learning info you get is from its simplicity. I personally have used both static html sites and WordPress and both have done extremely well so the key would be to just get started using a 'system' and to keep moving forward. It really works and works well so long as you keep working it.

For me, it removed any guesswork out of making money with an adsense type site.

You can check it out at Xfactor's main site and it also has a link to the main discussion that took place on his methods with using adsense and how he does it.
