Advertising is great for all concerned, it lets people know about new products and services, it gives information, and it makes you money, good. But too much advertising can be a very bad thing and it often breeds discontentment and greed, neither of which is very pretty. Used the wrong way, the advertising on your blog could lose you a lot of visitors, not exactly what you want. So you have to incorporate adverts in your blogging and get it just right.
If you think that the more adverts on your blog the merrier, and triple your ads and it will triple your income, you could not be more wrong. What will actually happen is that you will join the advertiser’s black list. All advertisers have guidelines concerning the number of ads that can be placed on a page. Usually this number ranges between 3 and 5. It all depends on the sponsor.
If you want to stay in with your affiliate or advertising program, find out what their policies are and respect them. You will have agreed to them when you accepted the T&C without a second thought. Other wise our blog could become a ’splog’, a blog that only contains spam. If your blog is nothing but page after page of adverts, and has little or no content, you would be better off publishing a gossip magazine.
Too many ads on your blog can bury your content, distract your visitors, and even frustrate them. Some, such as the very wary ones, will leave the blog in a hurry.If the blog resembles an infomercial, forget it. It will look annoying and take away from the good reputation you’re trying to build.
The main problem with blogs that have too many advertising units is that they can confuse visitors. If they are confused, they’re unlikely to click on any adverts, much less subscribe or buy anything. That leaves both you and your advertisers empty-handed.
A blog page can easily handle an average of three ads, which is something most advertising and affiliate programs will allow. Placed strategically, these ads can easily catch the attention of your visitors. Since there are only a few ads to look at, your visitors can easily decide which one to click on.
Before you start redesigning your pages consider the sort of programs that you are going to be running. If you plan to be a brand affiliate there are certain restrictions you will have to adhere to. Some companies prefer not to have adverts for a competing brand placed on the same blog.
Where you place the adverts is also important. Look at some of the top-rated blogs and see where they place their ads. Study where they are positioned, what size they are relative to each other, and also to the content. Looking at successful blogs is a great way to learn how to make the most of blog advertising.
