Here I share some simple tips to optimize your Infolinks ads and maximize your revenues.
1. Matching Highlight Color/Link Color
Choose a link color that matches to your
blog color. The color of the In-text links should stand out from the
text color of your pages.
There is an
option on the right side of the customization wizard to set your site’s
text and background colors. There you can see how Infolinks In-text
links will be displaying on your website.
Choose your link color wisely. Make your link color that suits your website’s hyperlink color to get more clicks.
2. Use Single Underline
You can set the highlighted links on your pages to single or double underlined.
Infolinks serves better-paying ads with double underlined keyword.
So people tend to use double underline, which gives a clear message to your website visitors –Hey I am using In-text ads.
So it is better to make it dotted, so people think this as a normal link and this will increase your CTR.
3. Maximum Links Per Page
Infolinks recommend keeping the links
per page to its maximum(12). They are saying then only visitors get the
feeling of ads on your website pages.
If all your pages have more than 1000 words content, you can try this technique. Otherwise, keep the links per page to 6.
Note : Don’t annoy your users with too many ads.
4. Choose the Best Content Category
You can choose any of the content
categories from the given list. Choose the correct category for your
website for better-targeted ads.
You
can easily change your current category from ‘My Websites’ menu. Select a
proper category for your website and see the result.
5. Make Use of Infolinks On/off Text – Infolinks Ads Placement Control
The placement tags allow the publisher to control where to display the Infolinks ads.
Remove
the ads from your header and sidebar using the Infolinks On/off

will increase your CTR.
6. Search Widget for More Earnings
