Help on placement-Blog

http://www.footiesource.com/

Thats my site, i want to know what ad's i should put on and where?

 

On the sidebar.

 

After trying lots of placements on my blogs, I have figured out that this works better, with higher CTR and earnings:

All units are 336x280 rectangle with text ads only

On the home page:
1 ad unit before the first post
1 ad unit after the last post

On the posts pages:
1 ad unit on the posts page, before the post title
1 ad unit on the posts page after the post

On categories pages:
1 ad unit before the first post
1 ad unit after the last post

Important: never put your ad units under the title of your posts.
This is forbidden by Adsense TOS:

POST TITLE
<adsense ad>
Post text

Code (markup):

This is a mistake made by many bloggers and you may get a warning by the Adsense team (as I did) or even worse, have your Adsense account closed. The only text that should be displayed right above the ads is "Advertisment" or "Sponsored links". Post titles or any other text is not allowed.

The right placement is:

<adsense ad>

POST TITLE HERE
Post text here
some blank lines here (usually 2 or 3 <br /> HTML line breaks are ok)

<adsense ad>

Code (markup):

And don't forget: always use 336x280 rectangle ad units. Make the background, links and text color of the ads match the colors of your page.

These tips give the higher possible CTR.

 

I suggest you put a 250*250 ad unit at the top of first post.

 

Im not quite sure where in the template i put it in.

<?php get_header(); ?>
<div id="content">
	<div id="main">
	<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
	<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
		<div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
		<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
		<span class="post-date" title="Date"><?php the_time('F j, Y') ?></span>
		<span class="post-cath" title="Category"><?php the_category(', ') ?></span>
		<span class="post-comm"><?php comments_popup_link('No Comments', '1 Comment', '% Comments'); ?></span>
		<span class="post-edit"><?php edit_post_link('Edit','',''); ?></span>
		<span class="entry"><?php the_content('Read the rest...'); ?></span>
	</div>

<?php comments_template(); ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<p align="center"><?php next_posts_link('&laquo; Previous Entries') ?> <?php previous_posts_link('Next Entries &raquo;') ?></p>
