How to increase adsense CTR by placing ads side by side

This is just a continuation of our last tutorial on how to easily place google adsense or any other html code, javascript advert (2x) side by side [same horizontal width]  on the home page ( Below Pagination) archive page (below pagination) single page (after comments, before the footer) pages ( before footer ) of your  WordPress Powered blog irrespective of the theme without using any special plugin.

So don’t expect this tutorial to be any long I will just go ahead with the codes to implement for your adverts to start showing on the same horizontal width sideways. For the purpose  of this tutorial  I will be using the freshlife 2.0 premium theme from theme-junkie for sample code snippets, so it’s left for you to figure it out, that’s if you are using a theme that uses different code structure  from freshlife 2.0 .

Just go to your admin dashboard ==> locate Appearance ==> Editor  ==> Main Index Template ( index.php) ==> go to the last dive where pagination ends ,,, there you will be seeing something like this ,,,

Just below it copy and paste this code :

<?php if ( is_home() || is_front_page ) {?>
<div align="center" style="width:100%; padding:6px; background: #ffffff;">
<table>
 
<td>Your 250*250 adsense Single Unit Code</td>
 
<td>Your 250*250 Chitika Contectual adds code</td>
 
</table>
</div>
<?php }?>

Take note of the conditional statements ,, is_home() ,,,is_front_page,,, feel free to add other ones if necessary or remove the ,,, is_front_page ,,, if it keep displaying at other places other than the homepage. Remember to replace “Your 250*250 adsense Single Unit Code” with your own google adsense codes.

Just read repeat this step:

Just go to your admin dashboard ==> locate Appearance ==> Editor  ==> Single Post ( single.php) ==> go to the last dive where you have contents ==> entry-meta ==> just above ==>

 <div class="clear"></div>

,,, Paste this code  ,,,

<div align="center" style="width:100%; padding:5px; background: #ffffff;">
<table>
 
<td>Your 250*250 adsense Single Unit Code</td>
 
<td>Your 250*250 Chitika Contectual adds code</td>
 
</table>
</div>

To make the adds show after content below comments :

just paste it above the code before the comments section call.

Paste it immediately above:

<?php if(get_option('freshlife_show_post_comments') == 'on') { ?>

Just go to the very last line of your header.php following the previous guides and paste this code there :

here is the code to copy and paste

<div align="center" style="width:100%; padding:6px; background: #ffffff;">
<table>

<td>Your 250*250 adsense Single Unit Code</td>

<td>Your 250*250 Chitika Contectual adds code</td>

</table>
</div>

Just go the very first line of your footer.php following the previous guides and paste this code after the very first lines where you have stuff like

<div class=”clear”></div>

after this line paste your code
here is the code to copy and paste

<div align="center" style="width:100%; padding:6px; background: #ffffff;">
<table>

<td>Your 250*250 adsense Single Unit Code</td>

<td>Your 250*250 Chitika Contectual adds code</td>

</table>
</div>
