In this post I´ll show you another way to increase the performance of Google AdSense on your Blogger blog by further extending the choice of placement options of your Google ads. All it takes is just a little adjustment of your Blogger template that will give you one more placement option for your AdSense ad blocks.
You will learn how to place Google AdSense between the header and the first post. This will allow for a huge variety of Google AdSense ads to be added, the 728x90 leaderboard probably being the most suitable. No technical knowledge of Blogger is needed to make the necessary changes.
How to Add Google Adsense Between the Header and First Post
If you are serious about increasing your earnings from your blog you should try to place a full length advertising banner between the header and the first post. For instance, having a 728x90 leaderboard in this prime position can be very effective. (Depending on the template you chose the 336x280 large rectangle might also work well.) To add a Google Adsense unit to this position take the following steps:
1. Sign in, then navigate to Layout --> Edit HTML.
2. You might want to Back up Template as a precaution.
3. Check Expand Widget Templates box.
4. Find the following lines of code:
<div id='crosscol-wrapper' style='text-align:center'>
<b:section class='crosscol' id='crosscol' showaddelement='no'/>
</div>
5. Replace
showaddelement='no'
with
showaddelement='yes'
6. Save template.
7. Navigate to Layout --> Page Elements.
8. Click on the Add a Gadget option that will now have appeared between Blog Posts and the Header.
9. Choose Google AdSense and Add Leaderboard 728x90 (or any other ad format). Save.
10. View your blog. The new Google AdSense Unit should now be showing between header and first post.
Here is an example of a 728x90 Leaderboard between the header and the first post and the top of the sidebar. (NOTE: all examples taken from my German language blog.)
In this post which is part of a series on ad placement in Blogger blogs you have learnt how to add Google AdSense between the header and the first post. As this is a prime position for a 728x90 leaderboard ad unit I have concentrated on showing you how to add this Google AdSense ad unit to your blog.
Good luck!
