Everybody want to make more money with the Google AdSense, getting approved by Google AdSense is not a big deal if you are not getting paid every month by Google AdSense. To make more money with Google AdSense you have to improve your CTR(click through ratio) your CTR should be between 2%-5% that is normal CTR and if your CTR is lesser then 2% then you have to improve the CTR, without improving CTR you are wasting your blog’s revenue which you can generate by your blog. Here is the few tips using it you can improve CTR of your blog.

AD placement

There are many bloggers out there who are just placing random ads in the blog, the size of the ads is also matters and to improve CTR one AdSense unit should be above the fold and the size of the ad should be 300x250  or 728x90 because that size of the ad unit works fine and also gets the higher CPC (Click Per Cost) And one ad unit should be in the footer of the blog post so whenever your finish the blog post then the advertisement can catch their eyes. And don't write sponsored links or advertisement  above the AdSense ad unit, why the heck you are telling the world that you have placed an ad ? and AdSense is already showing ad choices in the ad unit.

There are two types of the thresholds in the Google AdSense account 10$ and 100$. When you have crossed first threshold that's 10$ then your Google AdSense account will ask you for the tax information and they have to verify your Address (which you have added in the forum while applying for the Google AdSense account ), you have to add the tax information if and only if you are living in the US. And then Google AdSense will send you an address verification post with PIN (Personal Identification Number), all you have to do is to add the PIN number into your Google AdSense account to verify your Google AdSense address and Google AdSense post will take 1-2 week to reach at your address if you are living in US and if you are living in INDIA or any other Asian country then it will take 4-5 weeks of crossing the first threshold.

Google AdSense needs to verify your address because they will send check of your earnings when you crossed the payment threshold ! so before sending the check they want to verify the address whether the address is correct or not! And our blog have also crossed the payment threshold and soon we will get the payment in the end of the April.
