Placing the Google AdSense ads properly


By Cody Moya


We have all heard the old saying that the three most important
factors in real estate are location, location and location, and
this old axiom carries over into the world of Google AdSense as
well. Where you place your ads can have a profound impact on the
success of your AdSense program, so it makes sense to pay careful
attention to where those ads are located.

In the case of Google AdSense, location refers to where on the page
the ads are placed. The goal, of course, should be for the ads to
blend in with the rest of the site, rather than sticking out as an
obvious ad. The less like an ad it looks the more effective it is
likely to be.

Of course it is important that the location of the Google AdSense
ads does not interfere with the usability of the web site itself.
It is important to make sure that the site remains usable and
intuitive, and that it does not appear crowded or busy.

If the web site does look too cluttered, you may want to break the site down
into more sections, or add additional pages to provide for easier
reading. A side benefit of having more pages on the site is that
those additional pages can host additional ads, and generate
addition revenue from the AdSense program.

Even though text ads are generally better and more effective, a
site that is extremely heavy on text, with few images, may actually
benefit from image ads. Adding a few image ads can help provide
much needed graphics while naturally directing the attention of the
visitor to the ads. This strategy can be highly effective, and it
is one to consider if your web site is long on text and short on
pictures.

Whether you are placing image ads or text ads, however, the biggest
question remains where to put those ads. In order to be most
effective, the ads should generally be placed as close to the top
of the page as possible. The ads at or near the top of the page
are generally more likely to be noticed than those closer to the
bottom.

If you use "skyscraper" ads, similar to column ads in newspapers on
the sidebars of the web site it is a good idea to place them to the
right of the web site content. This is because visitors to your
web site will most likely be reading from left to right. The
visitor's eyes will naturally go to the right, where the ad will be
displayed.

In addition, the ads should be placed in such a way that they blend
in naturally with the surrounding content. For instance, if you
already have a list of links on your web site, it is a good idea to
place the AdSense links in that section of the web site. Google
allows this type of placement and it is perfectly proper to use
this strategy.

For those web sites with a main page that is updated daily, the
best place for Google AdSense ads is on that frequently updated
page. Putting the ads where people will be most likely to see them
is a good way to get them noticed. If the site is updated often
and bookmarked by many users, that will increase the chances of a
visitor clicking the ads and generating revenue for the site.

It is important to remember, however, that the home page of the web
site is not always the most visited. It is important for each web
site owner to look at his or her own web site statistics when
determining the best page to place the majority of AdSense ads.

For many web sites, the most visited page will not be the home
page, but another page that is updated frequently, like a "what's
new" page, or a "current events" page. If you do not currently
receive website tracking reports, most web hosting companies will
be able to provide these important usage statistics.

Banjarmasin

Banjarmasin is the capital of South Kalimantan, Indonesia. It is located at 3°20′S, 114°35′E, on a delta island near the junction of the Barito and Martapura rivers. As a result, Banjarmasin is sometimes called the "River City". Its population is about 444,000 (1991), making it the forth largest city on Borneo.

An important deepwater port, it is the trade center of the rich Barito basin; exports include rubber, pepper, timber, petroleum, coal, gold, and diamonds. There is a large oil refinery, and coal mines and sawmills are in the vicinity. The city is a centre for boatbuilding, especially of the pinisi sailing schooners used for inter-island trade.

The city is laced with flood-prone waterways, and many houses are built on rafts or stilts over the water. A floating marketplace, where buyers and sellers visit by boat, is located on the western outskirts of town.

The Sabilal Muhtadin Mosque, located along the Martapura riverfront, is a major landmark in the city. Built in 1980, it accommodates thousands of worshippers for Friday prayers. A state university (Universitas Lambung Mangkurat, UNLAM) is in the town.

Famous local food is soto banjar with lime.
