Would you use an adsense ready theme or place the ads yourself in wordpress

My title says it all.
I use a couple of adsense ready themes but they do not have the adsense exactly where I want them. Would you be this fussy?

yes, I am that fussy. If I don't quite like the way my blog looks will other people?

Yes - you should be that fussy - it will make a world of difference.

Position and color and all those factors in Adsense will be the difference between good money and average money.

Don't cut yourself short - get it spot on!

Personally, I wouldn't. I like each of my sites to have their own unique look and I strive for the site to have longevity and long-term relevancy.

IMHO, building a site for the 'quick hit' of overnight riches is a waste of time and effort. I like the consistency of income a good quality site with tight content and strong back links brings.

I'm averaging over $1000.00 a month in income from Adsense after about a 18 months. I'm not getting rich (yet) but I'm also not worried about my sites getting slapped for being spammy knockoffs.

The 'rinse and repeat' cycle is probably longer than many would prefer but it works for me and my sites will still be producing this time next year and most likely, more than they are producing now.

If you desire to make this a business, you need to treat it like a business. You visitors are your customers. WOW them with a great experience on your site and a simple call to action and they'll reward you.

I am very choosy and always try to do some kind of experiment with the location and colour of adsense.

So I would like to paste code myself ... those templates are not my cup of tea
