Google AdSense plugins

At a networking meeting today I was asked by Carolyn Barber which WordPress plugin should she use on her new site Meet Relax Learn Create. Well, here’s a [ bw_plug] summary of the first 10 plugins that I found searching for “adsense”. And below the summary are some of my observations.

Observations

[epl] easy-adsenser (activated on this site) did not Activate immediately after installation but instead produced the message “The plugin does not have a valid header.” But it could be Activated from the Plugins page. It started working instantaneously, without any configuration. So I imagined the revenue for these ads would go to the plugin’s author Manoj. It took me a while to get it to do anything. And soon I’ll turn off the banner since it doesn’t fit the theme. But I’ll leave the sidebar widget as it could be a source of revenue AND it provided me an interesting pair of adverts that I’ll discuss in my blog. PS. I was already signed up with Google AdSense and had earned a Massive £1.40 from my google blogger sites. I’ll revisit this in a few weeks and see how I’ve fared with ads on all my other sites.
