    It depends on the layout of your site, and the type of site.

    If you're an image heavy site (like most viral-type sites out there) then put them in the post right under the title and after the article.

    Sidebar and header ads rarely get clicked. Just put the ads where the eyeballs go, that's a good way to think.

    Also, if you think your traffic will only grow from there, and not die off after hitting a viral spike, then you might want to consider some ad networks that all the other viral sites are using out there like Taboola and Outbrain.

    CPC is low, but CTR is insane on those - which is why you need a lot of traffic for them to be profitable.

    Not sure what is going to happen, but from an SEO perspective today was a bless, I got 180 dofollow backlinks allready indexed, and some of them as strong as PR7 (one PR9) aswell. My SERPs instantly shot high. Tomorrow there will be a congress which is not covered yet and in the line of my target keywords, so I will write some generic optimized content with speculations, and update it with facts as the day goes on, which should give me a big boost in traffic again

    Place the adsense wherever you wish, but place one big rectangle ad just below blog title as this works with my several blogs. You have to look yourself for placing adsense where it works or not on your blog.

    Sounds like you've got the tiger by the tail.

    I would rotate adsense adds around, try different sizes, text or image, track the results and take it from there. There are themes and ,I'm sure plugins that could help you do this quickly.

    Congratulations, first of all
    And regarding adsense, I'd say place banners below titles or, better yet, inside your articles, write a few lines or paragraphs, have the ad shown and then continue with the rest of the article.
