This is another one of those ‘make more money with adsense’ success stories.
This blog has had pretty solid adsense earnings since we started displaying ads on it, but a couple of months ago we decided we wanted to make more money with adsense.
We started trying out different sizes and colors on the ad and link units, not really noticing any changes in the earnings.
Then we went through the tedious process of selecting high conversion Google Referrals, still wanting to make more money with adsense, but nothing impressive happened to the earnings.
Never really believing in it ourselves, we messed around with the AdSense for Search feature. We customized the appearance of the search box, the layout of the results and the placement of it all (just below the images above). Then we put it live.
Never could we imagine the results we got… The earnings went up about 400% and we do indeed make more money with adsense now!
Our best guess is that the visitors use the search box provided on our page, instead of returning to Google, when continuing to surf the net.
So, our advice to you is to add an AdSense for Search box to your website or blog – if you want to make more money with adsense.

Do you think that this would work with a ”site search” box as well?
Marcus Westberg?s last blog post..Monitor Twitter keywords
A traditional site search box, showing internal results only from the own blog, usually serves fewer ads (if any) to the visitors. So I use both.
One at the top, serving ads to the visitors, and one down to the right where visitors can search my blog.
