While it might not be enough to provide you with a full income for the year, it will most likely be enough to help you pay off some of those ongoing business expenses you accrue throughout the year.<\/p>\n<p>Now, for many people interested in monetizing their WordPress site, the first place they turn to is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/adsense\/start\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Google AdSense<\/a>, which seems the logical choice. Google\u2019s tools play an important role in helping websites get found in search and, later, in helping users determine what\u2019s happening with the traffic that pours into them. That being said, AdSense isn\u2019t necessarily the best ad generation tool for everyone.<\/p>\n<p>So, what are your options? For starters, you could take the one most people are familiar with and rely on AdSense to provide ads from random advertisers. You could opt instead to actively sell ad space to sponsors, partners, and other users interested in advertising on your site. Or you could just run your own ads.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to sorting out where you want to source ads from, there are a number of other considerations to make when choosing an option. For instance:<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"location\">Location<\/h3>\n<p>Where do you want to insert ads on your WordPress site?<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>In the header?<\/li>\n<li>In the footer?<\/li>\n<li>Before or after your blog post content?<\/li>\n<li>Within your blog posts?<\/li>\n<li>Before or after blog excerpts?<\/li>\n<li>In the sidebar?<\/li>\n<li>In some other widgetized area?<\/li>\n<li>In the WordPress admin dashboard? (Yes, that\u2019s possible.)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 id=\"size-shape\">Size &amp; Shape<\/h3>\n<p>Ads don\u2019t always have to be a small box tucked into the sidebar. Depending on the tool you use, you\u2019ll find that there are sizes, shapes, and orientations (horizontal vs. vertical) that you can select from so long as they make sense for the allotted space within your site.<\/p>\n<p>An important point to remember here is that even though you\u2019re not responsible for designing third-party ads, you should still take time to select the parameters by which the ads will fit. You\u2019ve worked hard on your site\u2019s design and it would be a shame to let all that hard work go to waste by allowing an ill-fitting ad to be thrown in there.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"ad-content\">Ad Content<\/h3>\n<p>There are typically three options: text-only ads, display (image) ads, and rich media ads (which includes video).<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"mobile-friendliness\">Mobile-friendliness<\/h3>\n<p>This one\u2019s a must. If the tool you use to insert ads into your WordPress site doesn\u2019t provide for mobile compatibility, skip it or hide those ads for mobile visitors. Again, you never want a contribution from a third party to disrupt the user\u2019s experience.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"visitor-targeting\">Visitor Targeting<\/h3>\n<p>For some of you, just finding a reliable ad plugin may be all you need starting out. But once you start to see revenue coming in with each impression (view) or click, you\u2019d be wise to make use of custom targeting settings. You can use things like <a href=\"https:\/\/wpmudev.com\/blog\/geotargeting-wordpress\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">geotargeting<\/a> to deliver specific ads to visitors based on their location or you can tweak settings related to demographics to maximize results.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"analytics\">Analytics<\/h3>\n<p>You\u2019ll also want to check your ad delivery system for built-in analytical capabilities. Although each tool will offer a way to track clicks, you might want something that conveniently pulls those stats into WordPress or that comprehensively tracks more activity surrounding the ads than just clicks.<\/p>\n<p>Google has a great video on the importance of using analytics to optimize your on-site ad placement and usage:<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><span class=\"embed-youtube-lazy-id dev-hidden\">0QVIRRhxbgU<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"ab-testing\">A\/B Testing<\/h3>\n<p>It may take some time to figure out where ads belong on your site for optimal performance. You don\u2019t want people to automatically gloss over them while trying to get to your content or, worse, get annoyed with the overabundance of ads that they ditch your site altogether. As always, it\u2019s about striking a good balance between putting your content out there, but to not do it in a way that\u2019s disruptive to the experience.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/wpmudev.com\/blog\/ab-testing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">A\/B testing<\/a> is something to think about if you want more control over which ad sizes, locations, or content get displayed based on visitor behavior.<\/p>\n<p>Although each of these considerations are valid, not all of them will be important to you\u2014especially if you\u2019re just looking for a quick way to make money on the side. Just know that, when you\u2019re ready, there is a lot you can do with ad revenue generation in WordPress.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"quick-ways\">Quick Ways to Insert Ads into Your WordPress Site<\/h2>\n<p>There are a number of ways you can go about quickly getting ads up on your WordPress site. AdSense is one of them. Selling ad space to third parties is another. And you can either manually insert the AdSense code into WordPress or you can use a plugin. Do you know what\u2019s right for you?<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s explore your options.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"add-code\">Manually Add Google AdSense Code<\/h3>\n<p>For those of you who don\u2019t want to add another WordPress plugin to your site, you can instead generate a code within Google AdSense and then add it to WordPress. While implementation is easy enough, the amount of control you have over ads placed on your site may be limited and the insights you get about clicks and impressions will force you out of WordPress and back to Google.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re comfortable with that tradeoff, then I\u2019d suggest you <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wpbeginner.com\/beginners-guide\/how-to-add-google-adsense-to-your-wordpress-site\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">check out this tutorial<\/a>.
