I hear what you say. After the first week, I took them off my site. They just don't pay!

people don't click on image/video ads because it's a different business than text ads: visual branding vs textual information. publishers have to get paid a premium for the visual impact. as long as google doesn't separate the bidding process completely for ads that serve different purposes it will never work out. i wonder why no one at the plex realizes the issues since years. it's basic marketing.

Seems not all experiments have good results Adlinks: extreme good earnigns for the small space Referrals: Goold terminated the program RSS feeds: I terminated the experiment for mobile: the discussion shows, not the big money video: seems also no great success

Have the videos at last other effects? I mean something like more page impressions per visitor More repeating visitors Something, that a visitor views more pages and has so the opportunity to click more ads

Finally, I took the video units off. I first put them at the end of an article and I did see somewhat more targeted videos but they made no money at all. Then I tried the 160X600 unit in a sidebar and to my shock now all pages showed the same set of videos. Still no money. Google, this has been a disaster for publishers. You need to come up with something more clever.

I tried them. Gave up. I wanted to pick my video absolutely. For example, i might have a page about how to train your cat to walk on a leash.... and i get a video about the problems of feral cats? I need to be able to choose the video where someone demonstrates how to train the cat. And I need complete control over adsense colors. and I need the adsense to appear to the right of the video, not above it. In the end, I have instead gone with google videos, and then affiliate product links beside them that match the video.
