Although I decided not to use Adsense on this blog, for most of us blogging means use of Adsense, and this is why more WordPress themes now come as “Adsense-ready”. So, here are a few small add-ons that will make your contextual monetizing process easier and faster.
Adsense Deluxe – Currently the most popular and widely-spread AdSense plug-in, that allows you to automatically insert ads’ code into your posts. Very simple to use, easy to install, runs smoothly and I am using it successfully on all my other blogs.
AdSense Widget for WordPress Sidebar – This plug-in adds AdSense to your WordPress sidebar in the form of a widget. Especially recommended to those who often switch themes and use widgets to play around with sidebar’s content position.
Shylock AdSense – Easy integration of AdSense ads into your WordPress. Basically it’s a simple addition to WP that has one pretty good feature — you can set particular ads into blog posts which are more than X days old.
AdMan – Integrates ads directly inside your posts. If you ask me, this plug-in is nothing special, however it’s compatible with Adsense itself.
AdSense Manager – This plug-in’s name is well summed up by its title. Use the latest version only, as older versions had some issues with the AdSense terms and conditions.
AdRotator – This plug in is a perfect savior for blogs with a lot returning visitors / traffic. and solves the ad blindness problem. It rotates your AdSense ads, and combines them with other advertising programs, banners, Adbrite.
AdSense Attachment – Display extra content, like images, in a new page together with AdSense ads. I have not found any proof of it being compatible with Adsense TOS, if anyone knows otherwise, please advice.
Google Ad Wrap – This nice plug-in show Google spider — in other words, what content on your blog is really important. It may help with targeting for the right keywords and understanding Adsense’s inside mechanism better.
Adsense Inline – another plugin that makes inserting AdSense into your blog posts really easy. It makes no difference from Adsense Delux (in my opinion) however every developer deserves his glory.
Author Adsense – Often used on forums and joint communities — this plug-in splits revenue between several blog authors on the same blog, inserting different publishers’ code into same ads slots.
AdSense Sharing Revenue and Earnings System – Same as the plug-in mentioned above, only show, additionally to all, revenue in real time.
Adsense Earnings WordPress Plugin – Control Adsense from your WordPres panel. Suitable for those who are too lazy to log in to their Google Adsense page, yet not lazy enough to install this plug in.

I used various Ad-Sense plugins for my WP site and I can tell you that some of them worked extremly well but some of them somehow managed to display ads that actually did not belonged to me!
The trick is, install the plug-in and check the ad regulary, if it seems ok thorugh a day or two it should be fine:) the buggy ones activates themselves within hours to be honest, so you can easily spot them and delete them instantly!
Very impressed with your post, the information that you have given is much appreciated and should make it much easier! Thanks for sharing. 🙂
Really thanks mate :)!Will use them for my sites!
A useful post. This there is that me it is necessary. Thank you!
I’ve found that just taking the time to hand-code where adsense ads will go in the first place is easiest on the server/loading time.
