AdSense Tips Best Performing Ad Types Sizes

Im currently working with AdSense and learning different tips. And you know, when I learn something I share my knowledge with you. I am willing to share AdSense tips with you. Today I will share the best performing Ad Types and Sizes for AdSense publishers.

Those who are currently working with AdSense should know, it has different types of Ad Types and Sizes available for the publishers.
The available sizes are:
- Large, Medium and Small Rectangle
- Banner and Half Banner
- Leaderboard
- Wide and Large Skyscraper
- Square, Small Square
- Horizontal Row
- Different Types of Buttons
AdSense allows you publish three types of Ads:
- Text & Image Ads
- Only Text Ads
- Rich Media Ads (ie. Flash)
Depending on users demands AdSense provides these ad types and sizes. But all of them are not effective for always.
The sizes that AdSense found most effective are as follows:
Large Rectangle: The size of a large rectangle is 336x280. Looks better when you place this within a post or after the post. Sometimes placed at the right sidebar. But placing it within contents is more effective.
Ideal for Text/Image ads or Rich media.

Medium Rectangle: Almost similar to large rectangle. But little bit smaller in size: 300x250. Used when the publisher wanna save the site space. Or when you dont have sufficient room to place large rectangle within contents or side bar.
Ideal for Text/Image Ads. But can be used with rich media too.

Leaderboard: Usually placed at the top of the site. These ads are attractive when used with rich media or flash ads. The size of this ads is 728x90.
But when your site has a side bar on the left or right, then it can only be placed at the top. Just below the site title. I mean huge space is required to place a leaderboard ad.


Wide Skyscraper: The most successful ad size I believe personally. Usually placed at the side bar of a site. And I think without a left or right sidebar, you cant use wide skyscraper.
Skyscraper is ideal for Image/Rich Media/Flash ads. Though AdSense sometimes shows text ads here. But when rich media ads are shown on skyscraper, the chance of attracting the visitors increase significantly.
The size of wide skyscraper is 160x600. So you must have at least 200 px side bar. It can be left or right. But I think right sidebar is more effective.
There is a large skyscraper too. Which is 300x600. But I think this will be really space consuming. And if rich media ads are shown on large skyscraper, definitely it will slow down your site which could be dangerous for you.
So I suggest you to use this ad with rich media, at the right sidebar of your site.
Adjusting Ad Size with the Site:
Its true that these 4 ad sizes perform well. But if your site doesnt match with these sizes, dont worry. Choose the ad size that complements your pages most. Read the guide to ad sizes.
When your space is low you can use Five Links Ad Units:
- Horizontal Row: 728 x 15
- Horizontal Row: 468 x 15
These two ads has more CTR. And they can hardly slow down your site.
Most Successful Ad Types:
AdSense usually provides three types of Ads:
- Text Ads (with Links)
- Text/ Image Ads
- Rich Media/ Flash (Also known as Display Ads)
AdSense recommends to use all of these types of ads. So you have to allow all of them to be appeared on your site. Because sometimes rich media ads are not available to be displayed. Though the text ads will pay you low but sometimes your ad space might be blank if your disallow them.
To maximize your earning, youve to show all these three types of ads on your site.

Never Block Non Performing Ads!

Hello Dears! Its been more than a week since I published my last post. Last week was so busy that I couldnt even check my sites status. By the way, Im gonna give a true advice for revenue optimization tips to the AdSense publishers!
Google often tell AdSense publishers to optimize their revenues. Google may give you different techniques to optimize revenues such as - Ad Placement, Ad Types & Sizes, Ad Selection, Allowing or Blocking Ads etc.
But never try to block irrelevant or non-performing ads to be shown on your site! Blocking non-performing ads may have an adverse effect on your AdSense Revenue Performance! Yeah its true!
When I started showing ads on my site, my income was around $1/day. Gradually it was increasing - $2, $2.5, $3, $4. And after two months, my average daily income was $5/day. Then I was trying to accelerate my earnings. I was searching for tips. Google says - Inspect the ads which are more relevant. You can allow or block ads as your wish.
Then I blocked some sensitive ads (Politics, Drugs etc.) from appearing in my site. And these ads were irrelevant to my contents as well as non-performing. Those Ads hardly receive clicks and never generate money. Believe me - the result was shocking. My average income fall to $2 after blocking those non-performing ads!
Is that a consequence of blocking those ads? I think yes. To support my decision, Ive allowed all the blocked ads. Again my average income rise to $5! So what do you think?
What to do now?
If you allow all types of ads to be shown, there is a great chance to display irrelevant ads. If you block some categories, your income will fall. So what do you do? You have another option! In your search custom text, you can use AdSense friendly custom robots.txt. And it will help Google to crawl your contents properly. And thus your site will display more relevant ads.
In your robots.txt, you have to use the following code:
