Adsense is used by majority of expert bloggers for their website monetization because it is a cookie based contextual advertising system that shows targeted ads relevant to the content and reader.

PLACE YOUR AD CODE HERE

</b:if>

7. Now, replace the PLACE YOUR AD CODE HERE with the Parsed Ad Code.
8. Click on Save Template button.
9. Done!!

Once you’ve performed the all above mentioned steps, then open your blog and visit any your blog posts. The Adsense Ad unit placed below post title will look something like this:

The AdSense ad unit will appear on the left side between article title and article content. If you don’t like ad placement and want to show it at the center or the right side, then use the below code.

<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == &quot;item&quot;'>

<div align="center">

PLACE YOUR AD CODE HERE

</div>

</b:if>

Then your ad placement will look something like this:

Ad below post title in Center

If you want to move your ad to the right side, simply change center from the above code to right. That's it.

If you’re still unhappy with the ad placement, you can try wrapping your content around the Google Adsense Ads (as shown in the image below):

To do this, use below code:

<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == &quot;item&quot;'>

<div style="float:left; margin:10px;">

PLACE YOUR AD CODE HERE

</div>

</b:if>

Replace left to right if you want to show ads on the right side wrapped with text.

Note: Once you’re done with placing your desired code, don’t forget to cross-check that all the codes are added between the conditional tags that will make ads appear only on the post pages (neither homepage nor labels/archives page). If you want to show ads below post title on every page of your blog then, just remove those conditional tags. (lines in blue color.)

If you are showing the ad on homepage and label pages also then take a look at your ad. It will be shown below all post’s titles means if you have set 5 posts to appear on your homepage then it will only appear below first three post’s titles. Last two will be shown as blank white space. On those, you can mind placing infolinks referral programbanner ads to make some extra money.

But, I will recommend you to show ad below first post title only as too many ads will make your website look like spam. For doing that, replace above conditional tags with below ones to show the single ad on homepage and labels page below first top most post’s title.

<b:if cond='data:post.isFirstPost'>

PLACE YOUR AD CODE HERE

</b:if>
