A lot of bloggers use several ad services for their site, and sometimes, managing all of them can get pretty messy. Thanks to the awesome developer community, there are a number of available plugins for WordPress that can turn your dashboard into a control panel, to customize and control your ads from most of the leading publishers. You also get the ability to insert them inside posts themselves, which help tremendously in increasing the click rate. Listed below are just some of best plugins in this category.
Easy to install and use, the AdSense Manager comes with an extensive instruction on the process of installation, making it a breeze to have it up and running. It generates code automatically and allows positioning with the use of Widgets, within templates, or inside individual posts. You can do on-the-fly changes on your ads: change the color, size, layout and even the ad’s position and see the results with a single button click.
The latest version of the AdSense Manager released on April 2008 is compatible with WordPress versions 2.5 and higher. The plugin allows for managing AdSense ads on your blog. It supports ads from AdSense, AdBrite, AdGridWork, Adpinion, Adroll, Commission Junction, CrispAds, ShoppingAds, Yahoo!PN and WidgetBucks. Take note, however, that not all available ad networks support the Ad Format/Dimension feature of AdSense Manager.
We all know how hard it is to insert your ad code in your every blog post. And if we are talking about hundreds or even thousands of posts, it turns into a gargantuan task. But with All in One Adsense and YPN, inserting an ad in each and every single one of your post is a cinch. It doesn’t matter if you have millions of posts. With this plugin, your ad is inserted automatically in every single one of your blog posts.
How the ad is displayed is customizable as well: you can specify the color as well as the position of the ad. And for an even higher degree of control, advanced can incorporate html and even CSS codes in your ads. The latest update of the All in One Adsense and YPN plugin was released August, 2008. The plugin is compatible up to WordPress 2.6.
Used to be known as Shylock AdSense, the WhyDoWork AdSense plugin can show different AdSense ads whenever they reach a certain “age.” For example, a newly created post will have a small banner ad placed at the bottom so that it wouldn’t annoy your regular readers. After a set period of time, this small banner will be replaced with a much bigger one and this time, it will be placed at the start of the article – all of this, done automatically. This way, visitors who found your site through the search engine will be seeing a more aggressive ad incorporated in your article (pretty smart). The plugin was last updated Oct 2007 and is compatible with WordPress 2.5.
