Infolinks earning performance across my blog network looks stable during last month. The average Click Through Ratio is 4.2% each day and with the average eCPM up to $2.25 daily I can earn additional $119 from my blogs only by adding Infolinks ads script on blog’s page.

I’ve been working with chitika linx before it’s limited only to US visitors and I also have heard about kontera performance that apparently drop like stone. By comparing Infolinks to Chitika linx and Kontera there is no doubt that Infolinks earning performance is much better than Kontera. If my blog network that has about 59,000 impression a month can earn $119, imagine how much you can earn from Infolinks with your web´site network that has more impression than mine.

Switching in-text ads provider from Chitika or Kontera to Infolinks is very simple. You only need to register your website to Infolinks and wait for approval. If your website is approved by Infolinks review team, then you can retrieve a javascript code from infolinks’ member area and put it on your website to replace the chitika linx or Kontera javascript code.

The page impression and earning statistic will be counted immediately after you put the code on the web, but to see the daily earning of your website you have to wait for 24 hour because Infolinks only showing the compiled daily statistic and the real-time one.

Test the Infolinks earning performance your self, by joining to the Infolinks ads network.

Blend your Ads. Select the background color of Adsense unit to be exactly the same color like your site background. Set the color of the title link of google ad unit to be similar to the link color on your site.

Avoid the 468×60 banner size. The google ad unit appeared on the bottom of this page doesn’t perform well.

Chose the 336×280 big size ad. My experience says that this big size ads has been the main source of my earning from Adsense.

Always avoid image ads. Image ads always looks pretty but somehow people seems to be reluctant to click on those type of ad. Therefore use strictly text ads for Adsense.

Put the ad unit above the fold. Trust me, 80% user of my site clicking ad unit which appeared above the fold. Unless you have really long and interesting post, never put ad unit below the page fold.

You could elaborate this basic tips further and remember to use multiple ad channel for adsense ad unit for better experimentation.

UPDATE

Recently Google adsense team gives us insider info about the strengths of each ad format:

* The 300×250 medium rectangle is a widely supported format that advertisers often use when designing their branding and rich media campaigns. Using this ad format and opting in to both text and image ads may generate more placement targeting opportunities, which will help drive up competition for your ad space and should lead to higher earnings over time.

* The 336×280 large rectangle tends to have a higher clickthrough rate due to its larger size. It often performs well on text-heavy pages where it’s integrated into the content.
