Hi

www.tourlimerick.com

I did this site for my father about 4 years and I would like to try and earn him a bit of extra income from it. The site has been accepted by Adsense and I would really appreciate any advice on the best place to put the ads. Also, should I create seperate and tailor ads for each page. It's quite a small site so that would be possible.

Any advice on how I could improve the site and use Adsence on it would be much appreciated.

Thanks

I like them where they are, one thing you may want to try in a month or so, is to change how the ads look and try to "blend" them better into the site, and run them for a month or so compare the stats, then tweak colors again

thanks Brian, i'm going to try the other pages now and will do as you suggest in a month or so.

Cheers

Great eye for location, I like it.
The one thing I question is whether or not most of those ads are in competition (Somehow) with your father's operation?
Just something to think about.
Great site,
Allan

Thanks Allan. Yes I noticed that Adsense was returning a view ads to competitors and i've blocked these in adsense - i'll have to keep a regular eye on the ads and perhaps look at redefining the keywords if it proves to be a problem.

Cheers

They ads look pretty good although you can make then even blend in by making the border white.
