Put lies that people would believe and want to know more about so they would click. Or move the ad in front of there screen (blocking what they are doing) and then put an “X” that will make people think thta if they click it, it will go away, but it will really move them to your ads page.
AdSense ads can be content-based, or search-based.
If your Google AdSense ads are content-based and you feel that the ads Google is placing on your site are not relevant or interesting to your viewers, log into your account and use the filtering options:
Competitive ad filters. You can block competitive ads, or other ads you want to keep off your site, simply by telling us which URLs to block. Google says, “In the unlikely event that Google is unable to serve targeted ads on your page, we offer you the option of displaying a default ad of your choice. This ensures that your advertising space is always being used as effectively as possible.”
You should also take the extra time to customize your AdSense ads so that they appear in the same look and feel as the rest of your site. Viewers are more likely to interact with them then, becuase they look like they belong on your website.
If you are using Google AdSense to generate revenue on your blog or website, incorporate the Google Search box on your site. First,your users an even better site experience. Visitors hang around longer, since they can search from right on your site. And since AdSense serves targeted ads on search results pages, you can make more money from your Google search box as well.

Hi Dr. Richards. I primarily use Squidoo to generate extra income. You do a co-op for AdSense with them and the Google SERPs rank them very high. What I do is create free lenses around certain keywords or ideas and I get tons of traffic. You can sell on them too – from eBay, Amazon, through other affiliate links, etc)… I sell eBooks I wrote from them, too. You can use PLR articles for content, etc. If you want more info, you can email me. Tiff 🙂
I am afraid that the previous answers could not have been terribly helpful for you so I will try to answer your question as best as I can without quoting directly from the adsense site.
If you create a page or website and place Google adsense ads on them then the ads that appear on your website based a a number of factors however the main factor being your page content.
Lets assume that you are wrote a chapter on new diet medicines and assuming that there are plenty of companies advertising on content network (sites like yours and mine) for new diet medicines then these ads should appear on your web page (Another page on another topic would attract different ads).
If you find that relevant ads are being shown on the page in question then you have passed the first hurdle as its important that the ads are relevant. There is a good change that a visitor to that page looking for information on new diet medicine and sees some ad for a new product will end up clicking on the ad.
If you however write about a topic which has few to no advertisers for the keywords in question and you end up getting ads that are only slightly relevant then changes are that you end up getting few clicks.
The placement of the ads on the page is off course also important and Google has released a heat map which shows which ad placements generally give the best click through ratios. You can see that map at the following link:
Generally ads that are above the fold, i.e the client doesnt have to scrowl down to view the ads, have better CTR. Dont forget to use the adlinks as well as they can bring in many clicks as they do with my sites.
About the size of the ad format and the colors there is not right or wrong answer. Some webmasters see best results when the ads are blended into the content so that they do not appear as ads right away while other website owners see better results with a ad in contrasting colors.
The one thing that most adsense forum users learn is that each site is different so you should experiment with different ad formats and colors and use the channel system to check which ads are being clicked on so that you can see what your ideal ad placement and color scheme is.
I hope that my reply was of help to you and I wish you all the best with your site and adsense.
