Optimizations to increase AdSense Conversions

Big note of warning: This only works well IF your adsense account is also niche targeted. If you are using one adsense account on VERY spread apart niches this first one probably won’t help you at all. Might even hurt you …. ‘might’.

Idea 1) Filter out useless ad categories:

1. In adsense: Click on “Adsense Setup” up at the top.
2. In the top blue nav bar, click “Ad review center”.
3. You’ll see a list. CHECK each category which high impressions and low conversions. Why waste perfectly good advertising space on ads that don’t convert?

Like I said, be careful with that one. If you have niches that are far apart, then be careful to NOT accidentally block a relevant category.

Idea 2) Filter out bad advertisers:

I got this one from another thread somewhere around on BHW. Here, you want to remove scammy, crappy, low paying useless advertisers directly.

1. Goto: Adsense Setup -> Competitive Ad Filter
2. Enter the list below and save

this is not my own list, I got it from another thread … just can’t remember where.
