Insert Ads In Between Blog Posts On Your Main Page

We had a look at how you can automatically insert the ads in between your blog title and the blog content, now we will take a look at how you can insert the ads in between the blog posts on your blog front page.

Again you would have to do a simple change in your WordPress admin control panel by going into Design menu and choosing the Theme Editor. This time we will take a look at the Main Index Template, the index.php. Find the following line:

<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

You need to insert the following line above it:

<?php $count = 1; ?>

Now find the line that starts with following:

<?php the_content

After the closing tag of that section (?>) insert the following code:

<?php if ($count == 1) : ?>
YOUR GOOGLE ADSENSE CODE HERE
<?php endif; $count++; ?>

Now your blog ad will show in between the first and second blog posts on your blog front page. You can see this in action at HowtoMakeMyBlog.com.
