Happy new year Alok :).. I liked this post. I am also trying to increase my revenues via google ads. Although I must say that so far the revenue is still below 100, I still haven’t reached a day where my ad earning has crossed 1USD per day. This might be cos most of my search results are coming from India.
Having said that, I would really like to understand about the ad placements. You have seen the ad placements of mine and I was wondering if there was a better way to place them to monetize and use it more effectively. A post on ad placements will be of great help in this regard ๐

Thank you so much buddy and happy new year to you as well. ๐
See you are absolutely true that since major portion of the visitors of your website are coming from India, your income is certainly less. I would suggest you something today which can help you with the ad placement. Your first block of ads are impressive but I think the best one which can return you the maximum is in between the content.

Do you know Alok what I hate most while reading someones blog? The ads between the content. I often think why people put ads between the content! Aren’t they giving way the traffic out in mid of an article? I mean you put call to action(CTA) at the end of your article put ads in mid; what if someone click the ad put between the content and move out of your blog without reaching its end – your CTA?

Actually Alok, I think I have observed the same as pointed by Ravish, sometimes even I find it a little distracting. So I ran an experiment on my site placing the ad in between the content. The ad revenue dropped drastically to half. Instead, I have placed it at the bottom now which has actually started giving more returns. Maybe it depends on the theme also I guess..

You are absolutely correct Vinay, as far as earning from Google Adsense is concerned we should regularly do change the placement and see the perfect working combination on our site…

Hmm, you are right about it Ravish…

Hi Alok sir,
I am too thinking about a custom domain and applying for Adsense. This guide will help me. Thanks for that.
Happy New Year. ๐

At Google+ you commented that I am the most helpful blogger of the year, but I will truly accept this honor only when you convert your blogspot blog into custom domain or self hosted one. BTW this blog post of mine https://www.inewsindia.com/2014/09/11/how-to-transfer-your-blogger-blog-to-self-hosted-wordpress-blog/ can come handy to you…

Hello Alok,
Good Day!
I like reading your blog posts. Your writings are honest and are simple to read. I always read full posts of your blog because they are useful and interesting as well. Keep up the good work!-

Nice points, Alok ๐
Yet to use Google Adsense as my account was not approved by them. Need to try again!-
I guess it will be approved now Anita, as you already get rid of the issues on your site…

Enlightening post, I must say. Thanks Alok.
My Adsense account wasn’t approved, I am a personal blogger, and what you said about choosing niches is absolutely correct when it comes to earning. I blogged from http://123sag.blogspot.com and recently moved to wordpress. Are there similar applications on wordpress that can help me monetize my blog? Also,WordAds requires me to buy a custom domain, without which it wont work. Are there other independent hosts which can give you ads to display on your blog?-
Dear Sagarika, thanks for sharing your comment and opinion with us. Honestly these are some of the limitations with blogspot and wordpress.com What I can suggest you is to go for self hosted domain names and install wordpress from wordpress.org. It should help you to establish your blog as an identity and brand, and most probably Google will too accept it for Adsense.
As far as other ads are concerned, I am really sorry, I don’t have much idea about wordpress.com sites, I won’t be able to say anything on it…

I never tried for Google Adsense. I don’t think my blog will be able to earn from it as it mostly has poems,stories, reviews etc.
However, I’ll discus it with you in detail later.
