How do you shift the adsense ads from the right column of the page to the style of the ads in http://www.1st-in-babies.com

Go to Ad Layout Code and select 300 x 250 Medium Rectangle. Replace your existing code with the new one it gives you.

I'm sorry if I wasnt clear enough, but what I meant was how do I get my text to be on the same line as my ads? Right now, my ads will stick out at the top of the page while the content is underneath the ads.

Try this:

<div align="left">adsense code</div>

If that doesn't work, try:

<div float="left">adsense code</div>

... or, put the AdSense code in a table and add align="left" within the <table> tag.

And if anyone else is interested, James did tell me in an email that moving the ads to that location has increased his CR ratio.

Hmm, all that fiddling around with it and it still doesnt work. . The design of my site is in a tables format and if I place both the adsense code and my text in the same cell, then the adsense ads will be displayed on top and my text will be pushed underneath.

Without seeing the page in question, it's very difficult to know what will and will not work, or what you might be doing that skews it.

You will probably need to nest a table within your existing table. So, in an existing cell, insert a new table - align it to the left and stick the Adsense code in it.

Then, in the pre-existing cell (not in the new table), add the text and it will wrap around. Here is an example:

Code:
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%">
  <tr>
    <td width="100%"><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="left">
      <tr>
        <td width="100%"><script type="text/javascript"><!--
google_ad_client = "pub-2659219460218872";
google_ad_width = 300;
google_ad_height = 250;
google_ad_format = "300x250_as";
google_ad_channel ="";
//--></script> <script type="text/javascript"
        src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
</script> </td>
      </tr>
    </table>
    <p>abc </td>
  </tr>
</table>


It looks like this - http://www.webmastersreference.com/test.htm

Sean,

I noticed on your site, and I've seen this on a few others, that the URL portion of the google ads is invisible. Is it OK by Google's TOS? Does it help the CTR?

Thanks,
Yaron

Hi Yaron

I hadn't really noticed. It doesn't show on this site either so I assume it's standard for the banner and leaderboard styles - I haven't changed anything.

Cheers

Yes, I see it now, the URL is missing from some of the horizontal layouts. Strange.

HMMM...This the second thread I have read that seems to say ads within the flow of the content have better CTR. But the conventional wisdom has been they should be on the right. What gives? Confused

I noticed both my CTR and EPC increased when I changed to the wide skyscraper, but my ads are still all on the right side.

Thanks,
Debbi Smile

Debbi,

Which conventional wisdom is that? Wink
Why don't you try it? Put some of your ads within your content and put them in a separate channel. If you CTR is better keep it, if not, go back.

For me, switching to the wide skyscraper helped some, but switching to ads within the text helped a whole lot more.

Thanks, Yaron. Wink

I think I'll take the pages that are earning the least and have the lowest CTR and create a new channel to test ads within the content, like you are suggesting.

I'll test it and report back soon!

All the best,
Debbi Smile
