Can you tell me please what is the best number of adsense ads per page for you? Currently I use 3 but I heard that just 1 per page is much better. Does it boosted your CPC when you moved from 3 to less?

Absolutely, I used to have 3, but now I have 1 and I'm doing a lot better.

i used to do 3 ad blocks, and 1 adlink.. now i just use 1 ad block per page. I chose the banner ad, below my header image.. and it does well.

I came to the conclusion that, less ad's showing gives you a higher payout when actually clicked.. as compared to more ads (that arent being clicked) gives less earnings.

Ever since the change i have doubled my daily earnings.

Of course this varies from site to site, just in my situation minimal ads work best.

It isn't that simple, unless you have a made-for-AdSense site and you're just trying to get whatever clicks you can from visitors who show up through search and never come back.

If you have a legitimate site that would have reason to exist without AdSense (whether a content site, an e-commerce site, or something else), you need to consider things such as:

- What ads or affiliate links (if any) you have in addition to AdSense.

- How visitors will react to the appearance of your site, and how that reaction will affect future visits and revenue opportunities.

In other words, depending on your type of site, you may need to think of AdSense (and advertising in general) in an overall context, not just in terms of AdSense CTR, eCPM, etc.

Our site is absolutely not MFA site. It contains thousands of various manually submitted and approved articles. We use also one affiliate contract and have one additional banner from 3rd company at the bottom of pages. But earnings from this is only about 10%, almost 90% comes from adsense. We noticed that CPC dropped by more than 50% in last 2 years, so we are trying to get it back.
