My personal Adsense template [evaluate this]

13 years ago

Hi Harchenko,

It looks really good, especially as far as colors go. My only suggestion....and I wouldn't know if this would make a diffrence or not, would be to move the square you have at the beggining of your posts to the left or right and wrap the text around it.

I've had success with that, but I'm not sure which way would be better. You might have to test out a few 1000 hits each way.

Great job though - looks good.

From the Designer part of my brain:

Go easy on the 0px distance 5px drop shadow.
Try a 90degree angle, 1px distance, 1px size. - Then put another 90 angle inner shadow, 1px distance, 1px size - but give this one a little color.

From the marketing side of my brain:

You need to use 728x90 ads -> These ads get clicked / shown 60% more often than any other of the ads combined.

Also, use image ads near the text! Text links, with so much text.. It hurts my eyes to look.

I would play around with colors, background colors, anything to bring some life to the site.

Thanks

Oh, thanks, I'll try 728x90 ads soon.

Hello harchenko..
Your theme has differentiation in layout, nice.
And the shadow effect is cool..
The user and the search engine now is more concern about loading page speed..
I have test with google page speed it scores 81 % in grade B. Its is good

It looks pretty OK. I suggest you add top and bottom padding or margin, and to make that shadow a little bit more transparent. Also adding something to the background would make it much better!
