Blog post ad placement

Ok, So I am developing a template for my blog..pretty much done with everything, but I left the post view page for last. I need ideas on what works best for:

• Placement of Social Icons
• Placement of Ad
• Ad Size

In the image below, Ive outlined the ad spot placed so far. Do you think it's fine as is or should I move the social icons below, use a different ad size etc. Keep in mind the comments will go below. Thanks


btw all the stories are fake, so don't go telling your friends that stuff happened

 

Hi, I personally think the adsense is way too low, but it depends on what's your mind about it. Personnally I go full throttle with ads, I'm not half sitted about it.
Anyway, about the social bookmarks, I would let them sit at this place, but the orange button with the plus on it, I'd put it near the title, just look at my own site shetoldme.com I use only this one for all social bookmarks and I put it very close to the title, so that can't be missed, and it doesn't take much space at all.
Cheers,

 

I want to keep the post body itself free of ads. Above the Navbar is a 728x90 and in the sidebar to the near top is a 300x250...so it would look too cluttered with all the ads bunched together.
