			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>OK, so you have a site and your finally getting visitors to your site, now how do you make money from your visitors? you could sell them a product of your own, you could promote an affiliate product, but most people start with AdSense ads.</p>
<p>AdSense is easy to set up and if your getting traffic to your site then that should convert nicely into a bit of extra pocket money for you.</p>
<p>If your site is in a common niche you may only get a couple of cents per click, but with enough traffic even the poorest of niches can still make you a few extra $&#8217;s a day.</p>
<p>So what if you are getting traffic but not getting any clicks throughs?</p>
<p>Well this was my case with my <a target="_blank" href="http://www.freedreaminterpretation.co.uk" title="Dream Interpretation">Dream Interpretation</a> site. i was getting hundreds of visitors a day, about two thousand page views a day and making less than $1 a day <img src='http://www.bettermychance.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>I decided to create a new template for the site more geared up for displaying AdSense ads, I now have a text ad unit near the top and 2 large vertical columns one for a banner and one for text ads.</p>
<p>So far this is working much better and i am now getting around 5x the revenue each day.</p>
<p>It seemed like a lot of work at first but its worth it long term, if you have a wordpress blog its a lot easier you can just upload a new theme, if you are running a 2.3.x wordpress blog and above i recommend having a look at <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Themes/Theme_Compatibility/2.3" title="wordpress 2.3 compatibility list">this site</a> as the have links to all compatible 2.3.x themes that are free.</p>
<p>Good luck and happy earning <img src='http://www.bettermychance.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
