Tip 1 – Use the default Google blue color for the title of your ads
When you set up your ads make sure you always select the default Google blue color. Even if your sites theme is a different colour still use blue because people on the internet have been conditioned for years to click on links which are (blue) if you start using red, yellow and green etc your CTR may drop.

You need to make sure your site is clean and organized without all the clutter. If you have lots of other distractions on your site then your CTR will plummet and you will lose a lot of revenue. All you need is your content, ads, header and if you want to include any widgets in the sidebar then recent posts, pages or categories will be OK to use.

Tip 5 – Never use borders with your ads
Do not ever use borders in your ads this is an absolute terrible mistake to make. Borders make them look like obvious ads and will again reduce your CTR by a lot. Instead select your page background color for your ad border color so it blends in.

Tip 6 – Ads above the fold
AdSense ads that are above the fold will get many more clicks so always put at least 2 type of ads above the fold. The fold is basically anywhere you can see before you scroll down the page.

Tip 7 – Make sure your content has relevant keywords
