Google Adsense Testing New Ad Fonts
July 1st, 2008 | Filed under Adsense, Google.Google Adsense seems to be testing various font family types on our site. Instead of the usual arial font type which appears by default, I checked different pages and found ad units displaying various font types. I managed to catch a few snapshots.
Rotating Google Adsense Fonts
This is how the Adsense fonts usually look like.
And here are the different variations spotted on the same ad unit within 5 minutes. Can you identify the fonts?
Though matching site fonts to adsense fonts is a standard strategy to increase adsense CTR, there is no end to strange Adsense ads that we spotted over the years. You can check out more ads with 2×2 ads, favicons, no titles, titles in italics and no “Ads by Google” and interactive keywords.

Ah, okay. So that’s why I see blogs having Adsense ads in fonts other than Arial. So far, I’ve seen ads in Comic Sans, Georgia and Times New Roman fonts. I hope Adsense won’t use the Monotype Corsiva font. It’s too dramatic…

I wish they would just let you pick the font. That is what I would like to do.
