You should first of all make sure you're making use of the AdSense channels. Don't just create 1 channel for all your ads but instead 1 for each ad. By this I mean that if you have a standard layout for all your pages of your site and for example have 3 ads, one below the header, one in the sidebar, and one in the footer, you should create 3 channels and name them appropriately (e.g. "header","sidebar" & "footer").

make a better blending

block the mfa sites

use section targeting

Once you've done that you can start playing around with placement and blending to achieve the best results.

The best way to see which works best is to use A/B testing where you compare 2 variations at the same time. Always remember that ad optimization is an on going trial and error process.

As trichinosis has already mentioned, section targeting would also be a good way to increase your CTR but ONLY if your ads are unrelated to your site content. Be careful when you implement section targeting though as incorrect use can make the relevancy of the ads worse.

How do I get more adsense impressions to my site?

It's all about the content.

And then how you promote it.

Original and unique content will get you good rankings in the Search Engines results as SE's love to index fresh content.

So all you're doing is scraping content from other sites, be it article sites, news articles, wikipedia pages, then you will have less chance of being indexed or ranked well because it is duplicate content.

If you can get indexed then Search Engine traffic is of excellent quality. From personal experience people who come via Google are more likely to click on Adsense ads. Because they've found your page from a deliberate search and they find an ad in context with the content.

Next on the agenda, how do you promote your site?

I'm not going to give any tips on promotion because each site is different. But if all you've done is made a website and update occasionally (even regularly) and do nothing more than that then watch the stats in your Adsense control panel then the site isn't going to grow in traffic.

1. You should make your Adsense ads look as a part of your web page

They shouldn't look like an Ad. People are negative to advertising. They search the internet for content not ads. Especially Banners have a less of 0,5% response. Their days are over. Imagine if you have an Adsense ad looking like the typical Banner with different colors. It will not be profitable.

2. Text ads are better than image ads

Like before, people are more responsive to text than images. In a way it is considered as a part of the online document and has higher CTR.

3. No Border ads

One of the best tricks is to erase the borders of Adsense ads and make them again having the same color with your website's background.

4. No other advertisements

The first reason is to be legitimate according to Google's Rules and the second more practical reason is that you do not want to distract your visitor's attention and go somewhere else without clicking your Adsense ads.

5. Placement

Even if you have the best Ad, people will not respond if they don't see it instantly. The best place to see the ad is the top of your web page and the next is aside your document's text. Visitors will click it more frequently since it will look like your text.

6. Traffic

Try to use legitimate ways of traffic. Some people use Google Adwords and other Pay per Click search engines. The problem here is to search very carefully for the right niche and keywords in order to make your campaigns profitable. Other ways is link popularity techniques like link exchange directories, software or even mass blog submission techniques. Don't use link farms and classifieds for that, because search engine's algorithms are extremely clever and they will ban your listings.

7. Do not rely on one website

Yes you can make money with one website but try to make as more as possible.

8. Relevant content is King

Articles are one of the best tactics to create huge websites that will be crawled by search engine's robots. Don't forget search engines exist to provide relevant content at first. One excellent resource to automate your article directory procedure is http://www.articleequalizer.com. You can create an article database in minutes which otherwise is time consuming and it would take you a week!

9. Use site maps

Google's site maps visit your site and crawl it much sooner that any other submission process. More information is here: http://www.google.com/webmasters/sitemaps

10. Relevant ads

It's one of the most important factors for Adsense success. If the internet user can't find relevant ad in your page he or she won't click the ad. Would you act differently? So it's critical to create relevant resource for your web page.
