We have covered lots of topics for increasing adsense revenue and list is endless. You can check them from related posts at the bottom.
Many websites are created for adsense (MFA) and they use Google adwords to show cheap ads lets say 0.01$/click ads to drive traffic to the blogs / sales page or landing pages. One of the big drawback of such ads are even though you have very good content but some keyword triggers them and even with high volume website you will never make good money from adsense.
Competitive ad filter is a setting of adsense, which can be use to block such made for adsense for low cost per click websites. Or you can also block competitive blog ads to display on your blog. In Simple words
Google AdSense provides the functionality to block specific ads from appearing on your pages. Although Google ads are highly targeted to the content of your page, there may be situations in which you don’t want to display particular advertisements – for example, you may wish to block ads leading to competitors’ sites
The competitive ad filter setting can be access under adsense dashboard> adsense setup > Competitive ad filter.
You also need to sign up for adblacklist to generate a list of MFA and LCPC websites. generate the List of website to add into filter and done. I just made the changes and in upcoming posts I will let you know, if my adsense earning has moved even a single bit or still at the sinking position.

Wonder if someone will tell what ads my blog is displaying at other part of world. Its a nice tip harsh, to restrict useless ads that dosnt match with your niche but only if I can get a full report of listed ads.
As a matter of fact, I have blocked ads from banks and housing websites that pay very less in terms of revenue.

Aery the list of such website is endless.. In every category you will have atleast 100+ websites which are either MFA or LCPC.. So selecting the right keyword while configuring the adblacklist website is a very crucial thing. In my blog I have not seen banking or housing ads..Day i will see them.. I will make sure that will be the last day for them on my blog ..

great tip. My adsense has been slipping lately and I will try this out and hopefully boost my earnings a little bit. BTW, I will be featuring this post in my “Sunday’s Best” series today as I think all bloggers could benefit from this advice.
