    So, I blogged with blogger for a few months/years and now that I have acquired my domain and using wordpress I feel like the dashboard is super complicated! lol

    I dont know how to install the adsense, the posting is fairly easy, but to tweak my page is where I dont know how or what to do!!

    Hey Ed, not embarassing at all...

    Usually some wp themes permit you to add adsense from the core....

    If not then I'll advice you look for videos on youtube showing how to do this using my pointers as a guide of what to search for. You'll need to add a HTML widget to your sidebar and paste in the adsense code into it.

    If you want to add the adsense to the posts then you need to put it into the main post files by editing the template....

    It's not easy so not embarassing....

    wish you the best...

    You might want to read the tutorials given by adsense. They are pretty easy to follow and implement yourself. If your theme doesn't support inbuilt adsense code, you can also try any plugin. There are many plugins that will integrate adsense depending upon your preferred ad placement.

    If you're having a hard time with it go watch some videos on YouTube. That's how I learn a lot of things these days.

    Hay you can use easy adsense plugin to display ads on your wordpress site. No need to edit templates.
