Adsense Optimization for Ad Types

Adsense Text ad is the best among Adsense ad types available that include text, image, and link unit. Readers easily captured the information displayed in text ads compared to others.

But, this is the best ad type for maximizing space in the web page. This adds more resources to the readers.
