This is my first adsense trial. So im really new to this. Im opening up a blog at: www.tips-google.com .. I've only added a little but of content, and few ads. I have 2 in the main page, so im allowed to put one more somewhere... I just dont know where exactly. I thought about the footer, but it'll take alot of scrolling down the page for someone to see it. I may put another one on the sidebar.. Recommendations anyone?
I would suggest you put one between articles with the same background so it's look like the ads are part of the article/text. This is one of recommended position and it has nice conversion also. You can also monetize your blog further with non-google ads, affiliate links and many more. Check out problogger.com to learn how to maximize earning in your blog.
