Hey Everybody,
I have just set up A/B split testing with the adsense codes on my niche site.

Ads with the default adsense colors will be shown half of the time, and ads with website text blended colors will be shown the other half of the time. Which do you think will have the better CTR? Is this based on experience or simply predicting?

I will keep everybody posted with the poss results; however, my website only get about 20 views/day so I am going to give it about a month.

    I see both colors on the page at the same time.

    Also, I'd remove the site if I were you. You don't want to get click bombed...

      Forgot to mention that I think the default color will convert better.

    Your site is against Adsense TOS, you can't have an advert in an article/post that is adjacent to the title, it has to be wrapped in text.

      Text blended will have a better CTR, default will have a better conversion rate.

      I agree - you might want to wrap that around text. If the advert is too large, consider downsizing to a smaller one. Lots of folks are losing their Adsense accounts for things that could've been prevented, so I would take a minute to make that change.
