Ad Setup
• Ads that complement your Blog creative perform better (5x higher CTR compared to contrasting ads)
• Image ads perform better than text ads• If you have multiple channels on a page, set
some to text, some to image to ensure variety
• Text ads with no border perform better

Ad Sizes
• Larger ad channels perform better: Consider reducing advertising channels but making them bigger.
• 160x600 & 160x600 on the right does particularly well.
• 468x60 text with no border embedded in the middle of your Blog Post does very well

Are my ads performing?
• A page CTR of 0.12% is the industry average for contextual ads
• Unique users have a huge impact on earnings: traffic alone is not a good measure.
