Ad networks

Google-certified ad networks in AdSense

[ElvisFan]

Now that this option has been around for awhile... just wondering if anyone had any great success by opting into the ad networks or is it just another waste of time?

I have three large niche sites and recently my bottomline dropped by half over the last three months as compared to the same time over the last three years.

I know things are bad... but this is depressing... everything/anything I have tried is just not making any difference.

Ready to try anything, and all suggestions welcome

There is no seperate reporting for these networks, so there is no real way to know if there is an advantage to running their ads or not.

When the option first was available, I blocked them all.

I did turn them on recently to test the option for a few days. Income crashed, so I turned the option off again and reverted to "block all...", income went back up.

Make whatever you want of that experience.

Thanks ken_b I opt in on the first of the month... will give it a week ... and wait and see... however, so far no huge increased income... maybe just the holidays are taking their toll... but whatever, still getting increase in visitors... and everything else is going up... but alas my income is way down...

I'm testing it at the moment, always had it turned on, turned off all of them today .. we will see ..

They even say

"Please note that you may miss out on additional revenue by not automatically allowing new ad networks as Google certifies them."

This means they are not sure if it will generate more revenue, so it depends on different factors.

Where can i enable this option? is it in ad review center?
Because if this is where it is, then every thing is by default allowed. Isn't ?

It's in the ad review center.

I don't see any real way of testing it, so I don't mess with it. Everything is enabled in my account.

My test resulted in the worsed income days I've ever had... so I have turned it off... and now playing the wait and see game with adsense...
