Google adsense: Image ad or text ad makes more money?

I don’t remember exactly the person who said “google adsense is one of the best programs you can make money from” and I thought okay lets give it a try. But after letting it to waste my blog ad space I figured adsense isn’t always the very best program you can dream to make money from. You don’t get an epassporte visa card or a payoneer master debit card to quickly withdraw your funds. All you get is a lousy check for a minimum of at least $100!

Besides when you are trying to build a professional blog adsense gives a very cheap impression and adsense wasn’t doing great on this blog. So I removed adsens. Here, is exactly why I have removed adsense from my blog.

- Running for 2 months and 19 days.
- Page Impressions - 5130
- Page CTR – 0.98%!
- Page eCPM – $0.37!
- Earnings - $1.72!
- Clicks – 6!

Well sounds like it was a good decision to remove adsense from my blog right? Wrong! Adsense can be very profitable if you place the ads the right place. Because of the suggestions I received from other webmasters I didn’t quite remove adsense from my blog. Instead I thought why don’t I run an image block on my sidebar? Well the idea worked and I have started to see much more clicks on the single sidebar image ad block! Here are the states,

Page Impression – 2523
Page CTR - 0.73%
Earnings – $4.05

Do you see the picture? Well it didn’t take me that long to realize what am I missing. So I ran a few image ad blocks and whoa! I made $11 from 30 clicks out of 5,388 impressions! And it all happened within a week! Sounds cool eh? Indeed it is. I don’t think it will take me ages to get the next adsense check for sure.

So I conclude, image ad makes more money for sure.

    It depends on the website really. I had a stable 20% CTR with average click being around 50c on one of my sites. Yet on another site i could not even make a penny with 7000 daily uniques.

    SEO Dr’s last blog post..Even more resources for link development
