Looking for a solution of how to put Google Ads in your post and let the text wrap around it? Then you come to the right place. I am going to show you how to implement it for WordPress. Actually it is not as hard as you might think. All you need to do is to

download a plugin here.
Once you downloaded the file; unzipped it.
I use FireFTP to upload the unzipped file to this folder /wp-content/plugins/. But you can use whatever FTP you want.

One more thing you need to do before you can use this plugin. That is you need to edit adsense.php otherwise you can’t earn money because those codes are not yours.

Open adsense.php file, search down to the middle, and find the lines of and . You need to put your Google Ads between these two lines. Make sure you use the following codes to wrap around them. What I mean is your codes should look like the one below:

left; margin: 5px 5px 5px 5px;">

Your Google Adsense codes go here

You can change to float right, left or center; adjust 5px to meet your needs. By the way margin: 5px 5px 5px 5px represents for top, right, bottom, and left margin spacing respectively. After you made your changes, make sure you save it and upload it back to this folder: /wp-content/plugins/adsense/.

Now login to your WordPress Dashboard, click on Plugins on the Menu Bar, and make sure you activate Adsense. You should see a new button, Adsense, on your editor’s Code Button. Now go ahead and try to click on Adsense button and place the ads wherever you want it to be. See mine on this post. Hope you enjoy it like I do!

Sitemap? What is it? How to Add it to Our Website?

Lanna — Sat, 29 Dec 2007 02:22:41 +0000

Why do we need to add a sitemap to our website? The answer is that it will help Googlebot to crawl your website more efficiently. Instead of just crawling your main page it will crawl more deeply about other pages of your website as well. Thus it increases the visibility of your website showing up on Google search engine. This means that more people will find your website. If you are running a business website, then you are more likely to get more visitors. Thus you will increase your sales.

Here I want to show you how to add a sitemap to your website using Google Webmaster Tool’s account. If you have a website self-hosted by a web server, then it is easy. Just create a sitemap using Google Sitemap Generator here. Then save it as sitemap.xml file. You can name it whatever name you want. After you’ve done that, upload it to your web server in the root directory using FTP, and finally submit it in Google Webmaster Tools‘ account like this http://www.yourdomainname.com/sitemap.xml. Make sure you change yourdomainname to be your own domain name. It did not give me any problem when I submitted mine.

However it took me pretty long time to figure out how to add a sitemap to my blog which is hosted by Google Blogger and my other blog which is a self-hosted WordPress blog. The self-hosted WordPress blog is in my website’s sub-directory. It gave me hard time when I tried to submit a sitemap through Google Webmaster Tool’s account. In order to make it work I found out from this feed validator web tool that I have to submit it like this http://www.yourdomainname.com/blog/?feed=atom for atom or http://www.yourdomainname.com/blog/feed for RSS. Make sure you change yourdomainname to be your own domain name.

The blog with Google Blogger also gave me hard time. I searched Google Webmaster Help Group and I was guided to add atom.xml to the end of my Blogger’s URL, but I just kept getting errors. At the end I found one error saying, “Paths don’t match. We’ve detected that you submitted your Sitemap using a URL path that includes the www prefix (for instance, http://www.example.com/sitemap.xml). However, the URLs listed inside your Sitemap don’t use the www prefix (for instance, http://example.com/myfile.htm).” So I just submitted it like this http://yourdomainname.blogspot.com/atom.xml without www and it works! Make sure you change yourdomainname to be your own domain name. Now all of my sitemaps in my three websites work fine!

If you have any questions, feel free to ask in the comment section. Good luck to all of you!
