Is Blue the best color for AdSense ads?

We have been, since ages, believing that the best color for Google AdSense ads is, undoubtedly, Blue. It has been written on stones that the standard blue color brings luck & prosperity to AdSense ads! However, according to Smart Bloggerz, this is no longer true! The standard blue (#0000ff) gets a relatively low CTR. This is probably due to either the:

Color itself being outdated
Color simply being too bright.

What’s the best look & feel for your AdSense ads?

Blend your AdSense background with your page background.
Blend your AdSense border with your page background.
Use the same link colors you use throughout your site for your AdSense ads.
Make your URL and AdSense text colors black.

What’s Next?

Did you try to run online business and failed? Your website makes only a few hundreds of dollars per month? Want to know how to make more? I will teach you how! AdSense Money Maker is the best software on the Internet today that builds Google AdSense ready websites automatically. It has slow building feature, lots of different templates, builds AdSense TOS compatible pages and is completely automated. You must see it!
