Earning Comparison:Text ads Vs Image ads?

May 18th, 2010 No comments

You want to earn more out of your blogs right? Obviously yes and you can make that possible. There are so many options to go. One powerful among them is using advertising networks like Adsense and Yahoo publisher. Whatever may be the network; there are again 2 major options available. One is text ads and the other Image ads. Which one to choose? Which will earn more? Still, there is so much of confusion around this. You can’t deny that, right? No one is clear on this. Yes, even Google itself is not clear on this issue or I can say this confusion. Sorry Google knows, but they won’t disclose J Let’s discuss some of the positive and negative trends with both Text and Image ads. First let us see what Google saying on this confusion. While we can’t make any guarantees about the earnings potential of image or text ads, we believe that image ads will prove to be a high-performing option for publishers looking to monetize their pages. In fact, we show image ads when they have a higher value to you than the corresponding set of text ads that might otherwise run in the same slot. Finally Google is saying that they will display the ads which will earn you more. Text or Image, whatever may be type of ad, they will try to help you earn more. That’s fine, let’s analyze which is best as per our knowledge levels. Text Ads Analysis: * More than one ad on ad units * Possibility of getting clicked on at least one link * Possibility of hiding and mixing it with the content with colors * Possibility of getting relevant ads on site * Chance to get Maximum CTR Image Ads Analysis: * Single and attractive ad per unit * Possibility of getting more clicks with the more clickable area on image * Less chance to get relevant ads on site * No chance to have custom color ads I found a good discussion on Digital point forum about this issue and you can see most of the people sharing their experiences. I read each and every response and found that maximum percentage of people are voting / suggesting for text ads. So, what’s your experience? Which would you recommend? Share with us! Happy Blogging!
