Quite often it is not always the most blended ads that work, but it usually is. I can't stress enough how good the link unit placed at the top of you site will perform. by far the best performer for me, especially given the small amount of space it takes up. A good guide on Adsense optimization is here: http://tinyurl.com/madsense Typically Adsense CPM would be between $1 and $10, with an average around $5 (but it depends greatly on the niche and traffic). The average site would need to have over 20,000 page views a month to make $100/day from Adsense (that's 600,000 page views a month!). I would say that if Adsense is more than 50% of your income then you are doing something seriously wrong. Adsense is generally a weak performer compared to affiliate sales, selling your own ad space direct and selling your own products. So if you are mostly earning money from Adsense then you are missing a big picture. John Chow did a very good video which covers why you shouldn't overly rely on adsense and a more robust business model: http://vimeo.com/5298554 Split testing the ad colors & layout is the quickest way to find out what works.
