Google AdSense Image Vs Text Ad Units
Google AdSense gives you the option to choose text, image or both for an ad unit. If both was chosen for an ad unit, AdSense will determine which one will be more effective for your site. So what’s the most effective ad option to invite more clicks on your ads?
My Advice? Go text ads all the way!! Why?
1. People are immune to image ads already. Text ads are still a fresh concept and can be easily concealed into the contents.
2. Google AdSense text ads are several per ad depending on size giving several opportunities to click on an ad. Image ads has only one. Therefore the chance of text ads being clicked is more than that of an image ad.
3. Text is faster to recognise than an image and there is also a short description where the link ads point. Therefore a text ad will attract more interests.

Isn’t it a bit odd that a page that argues vociferously for text ads contains, by my count on this page hit, 7 image ads and only 2 link ads?
