And yes, it's all jargon free! Start here
Hello Amit Agarwal,
If you are listening, here is a tip to your blog, that will increase your CTR 200 percent(as the gurus say…)?
This is only a suggestion to you – My guess is that you may not have noticed this point or that you may have tried it already – well, if you haven’t here I am.
I see that the blog has an Ad-Link unit placed on the left-hand panel of the blog, after which there is the feedburner “subscribe” and the technorati “add to favourites” link and after which there are the “recent hits” category! Fair enough – I guess the idea was to categorize things at distinct corners.
But, I wonder how many clicks actually land on the Ad-Link unit?
I saw an opportunity here.
I think it would be better if you can roll up the “feedburner - subscribe to email” and “technorati favourites” up to the top(right below the about the site link) and, bring down the Ad-link unit right above the “recent hits” category.This can be achieved by creating a table on top of the recent hits category and placing the ad-link unit in it.
The benefits –
- The Ad-link unit looks similar to the recent hits category and thereby identified more by the visitors as a clickable region.
- More ctr
How you do it.
1.Upload the following image(table background) to imageshack or on blogger.
2.In your HTML code, goto the !! div class = 9 !!(replace ! by <>) tag (Right after the SUBSCRIBE BY EMAIL) and create a new table.
3.OR, place the following code –
4.Go to the original adlinks unit code and delete it.
Simple as that.
The new page would look similar to this.
What do you guys think? Is this gonna work or ?

hai M ,
I dont think , ur suggestion will work better than what amit has now .
As a person who use PC a lot , i feel better to use the links present in the left upper part than the links present at the left bottom part .Amit scores in this part ..
Anyway , ur blog is really good
That’s absoultely right chaitanya, If you take a good look at the point i raised, i mean to bring down the ad link unit a little more above the recent hits column(top left again) it strects out into the corner and also sticks out - if the idea i said is implemented it will remain in the left hadn corner top, and look similar to the recent hits category column, and keeping in mind that Ad Link units take two clicks to generate revenue -i think if i was in Amit’s place, i wud’ve defenitely done it.
Thanks lot for the argument.
