    If you want to add this on sidebar than you must use Sidebar Widget option under your Admin Dashboard, choose a Text widget and insert the Adsense code.

    You can also use plugin - WordPress › Adsense Insert « WordPress Plugins

    or read this topic - Wordpress Adsense - How to add Google AdSense to Wordpress

    With my AdSense Wordpress sites I use the CTR theme. There's a box in the theme settings for AdSense ads and you can put in your code and upload your ads to your site with ease.

    Another theme that does the same thing is Clickbump.

      Just install an adsense plugin, it's the simplest way (in wordpress you can find a plugin for almost everything)

    It really depends on the functionality of your theme. Thesis, Clickbump, CTR theme and many other themes all provide options to paste in Adsense code. If you're theme does not support easy adsense integration, then you have 2 options.

    1. Use an Adsense Plugin

    - but be careful. Some adsense plugins "steal" a percentage of impressions for themselves as a commission for access to their plugin. Make sure you pick one that allows you to keep all the ad revenue.

    2. Manually insert adsense code.

    - This could be the best way to maximize your adsense CTR. That being said, if you have a large site, this could be a tedious task.

      This is something tricky. Would you like to suggest me some good adsense plugins which does not steal the impressions?

        Janice, unfortunately, nobody actually read your post.

        If you have your own domain, hosting, and using WP, you
        can put the code anywhere you want to. No plugin needed.
        I assume though, you could not look at the code for
        the right place. Well, then you would need a theme or
        plugin and it's rather simple. There are free ones.

        But having said that, you cannot add adsense to free WP.
        Sorry. You could apply to WP's own revenue share.

        My advice is to start a blogspot blog. Google makes it very,
        very easy to add adsense to their blogspot. Plus, it comes
        SEO'd out of the box and you NEVER need any plugins.

        *Sigh* Notice how nobody read your post? If they did, how
        could they ignore this:

        You deserved the right answer. I'll leave it at that instead of
        going off...

          My apologies. Paul is correct. You cannot place adsense on wordpress.com blog. You can switch over to wordpress.org, but there will be some SEO implications involved.

          I have got a blogspot blog but the ranking is not very good. Someone told me to move it in wordpress to get better result. That is why I am looking to move in wordpress. But, thank you very much for giving me the right answer.

        I don't use any adsense plugins. Most of my niche sites use clickbump, CTR theme or Thesis. Which all support easy integration with Adsense.

        Just check out the TOS or user comments for the Adsense plugin that you want to implement. The disclaimer will tell you whether or not the plugin creator takes a commission.

    Hi Janice,
    This is Deepu here. Hopes you are doing great. You use a plugin named EASY ADSENSE for the same, which does not steal any impressions.

    Note:-
    Please make sure, you use only 3 adsense adblocks per post/ page as more than that is against google policy. Ofcourse, you can have an adsense for search.

    You will need a valid privacy policy and contact form/ address in your website, which is also necessary for an adsense site.

    Please do contact me for any help in case if needed...

    First, selecting SEO friendly themes that provide some space for ads is better. Register to google adsense and you will get your ads code.
    For best formation placing ads code you can googling it or searching in this forum.
