I am experimenting with Adsense for my project hryprodva.cz. The project has consumed thousands of hours of my time and it is still in the red as there is no income. So I decided to try to place some advertisements and the easiest way seemed to be Google Adsense.

For the first try, I decided to place just two small ads, on the main page with the game list. The idea was to place the boxes with the same look as the game cards, with some advertising.

After three weeks of testing, it was still buggy and generating almost no income. On the PC, the ad appeared every tenth time, and on the phone it almost never appeared.

With a total income of around $1 after three weeks, I tried another experiment. I experimented with the automatically placed ads. There is a simple editor in the administration of the Adsense account where you can adjust the excluded parts of the pages and also select the types of ads that are banned. For example, the full-screen stickers are absolutely annoying...

Now the site is full of ads, but the income is many times higher. Now I have to find a balance between the number of adverts and the income, which should at least cover the cost of the servers. I do not like ads in general, so I want to keep the site as clean as possible and find other ways to cover the costs.
