Adsense Ads:Which Ad Placements Work Best?
The position of your ads will have a major impact on whether your readers pay attention to your ads and as a result, click on them
For maxium effect you want your ads to be in the center and middle of the page for maximum visibility. You still have to make them look like they are a part of the text, otherwise you’ll just turn readers off and they will leave your website instead of clicking on a link or an ad.
This is why ‘contextual ads’ work so well. Contextual ads are links placed directly in the content of your web pages. They usually promote affiliate products, but can also be used for PPC publishing where you’re paid per-click.
The ad placement suggestions in the Adsense Article System work very well too.
