How to Align Adsense Ads Left or Right in Your Posts

It is no secret that Adsense recommends larger ad units like the large rectangle. Using recommended Google Adsense sizes that are blended into your posts is likely to result in you receiving much more per click than you would with a smaller ad, on the same page, in the sidebar.

How to Float Adsense

To the right is an Adsense ad.
Notice it is not all smooshed up to the text.
The ad is a 300 x 250 large rectangle which is pretty big for my skinny little blog, but I figured I would show an example that even a large ad in a blogpost does not have to look hideous.
To make it further blend in (or at least be less ugly) I suggest you choose “image ads only” when creating your ad.
Here is the code to position those ads (it is just adding a “div”).
Add your Adsense code and then insert into your page or post.

<div style="margin: 5px; float: right;">
Put ad code here
</div>

The above code will work on Wordpress blogs, websites, just about anywhere. It also works with just about any type of ad too, not just Adsense.
You can also use padding to control the space between the ad and your text. The above code uses a margin. If you want more space between your ad and your text try changing the “5″ to “10″.
To make the ad go to the left, just replace “right” with “left”.
