AdSense takes a 32% cut of your revenue, approval is a headache, the support is terrible

I've researched for the last few days and the conclusion is: AdSense is not in any way the optimal choice for your site.

It's the same issues all the time:

  • AdSense approval feels random.
  • One small mistake can get your account flagged.
  • Support is basically non-existent unless you're huge.
  • And Google still takes a massive cut.

And, these are the missing potential AdSense misses out on:

  • High CTR ads by better designs, better messaging. All ads currently look terrible and the messaging is abstract. Better ads = Higher CTR = Better revenue for you.
  • If an alternative had a zero commission policy, advertisers could be able to put more money on ads that otherwise would've gone to Google.
  • It's always the biggest companies - Adobe, canva etc. putting ads on there. Almost everybody knows them, there isn't much potential in terms of growth and revenue.

So I'm building Adorro. I'm currently building a waitlist of publishers and advertisers so that you can have a better alternative to AdSense.

Here's what I promise Adorro will massively help you with:

  1. cleaner, better and modern ad designs
  2. better messaging and copy
  3. faster approvals
  4. less cluttered placements
  5. Built for blog publishers, articles, freemium Saas services

It'll be worth it, trust me. Signup on the waitlist to book your site for all the benefits I talked about.

Have a great day!

I made a game to find out what differentiates a GOOD ad vs a BAD ad

Here's how it works:

  1. You’re dropped into a random website or blog post.
  2. You scroll, skim, and read like a normal internet user.
  3. At some point, an ad appears naturally on the page.
  4. You decide:
  • Click
  • Close

Ads are of two types:

  1. Irrelevant to the blog/beautifully designed ads.
  2. Relevant to the blog/poorly designed ads.

Aim of experiment : To understand what makes a website ad get clicks instead of being ignored.

Results will be posted here by me exactly 1w from now.

For me it was:

*Studying right after waking up. I stumbled onto this on yt and it works surprisingly well, you can study efficiently when your mind is empty.

*Not touching anything dopamine-heavy before sitting down to study. Reels, youtube, whatever, even 10 minutes of that and the session is basically ruined before it starts.

*Dump loading. Basically I just dump everything on my mind onto paper before I start - worries, thoughts, desires(even scrolling) etc. If something takes less than 2 minutes I just do it. Everything else I schedule for later. The point is to close all the open loops so your brain isn't quietly stressing about them while you're trying to focus. Huge one for me personally.

*Phone in another room, no distractions while studying, websites blocked, pretty self explanatory.

*If I'm already overstimulated when I sit down, forcing focus doesn't work. A few minutes of something genuinely low-stimulation, meditation, or even just staring at a wall acts as a reset. Sounds strange until you try it.

*Vague goals are procrastination in disguise, trust me. I set goals that are small, specific, and time-bound. "Study for two hours" is not a goal. Finishing all problems on Pg. 26 is.

*Studying in strict intervals with breaks is something i always make sure of. You have to make sure you are not burnt out studying day to day, it'll just make you not do it again.

Eventually doing all of this becomes a ritual. If you do them consistently, friction becomes less and you can reach flow state easily.

What are some of yours?
