Hello, I have just started a blog at http://shelleyuncovered.blogspot.com. Can anyone give me tips on better placement of adsense ads, and maybe where it is best to put them?
1. Replace the half banner with a 336x280 large rectangle and blend it with your site's template. 2. Put a 160x600 wide skyscraper on the right side aligning with the menus.
Don't try to monetize a personal blog through AdSense. You're going to get crappy, untargetted ads. Use your personal blog as a way to get your name out there and link to other more focused blogs
Thank you for your advice. I think I will start up more blogs and then use the placement advices on those.
Just make sure they are on topics that you are knowledgable about. Please don't add to the slew of MFAs on .Blogspot. One tip: Use the Minima template for any blog that you want to add AdSense on. It's the easiest to properly blend, and you can move the nav bar to the left and place a skyscraper in it, which should help increase your CTR
I'd forget about advertising until you build up some readers. If your mind is thinking how to make money chances are you won't provide any value to your readers so you won't make money anyway. First comes value, then comes monetization.
I'm trying to setup adsense on my blog "something.blogspot.com" and i'm getting this error "An error occurred (code 205). Please try again".
All you should have to do is directly copy and paste the ad's code into your Blogger template and then republish.
