Anyone have a good guide to setup Adsense for Xenforo? I'm looking around and just dont see much.
I guess my main beef is the actual Google Adsense website - I have a pub-ID but the missing piece here is actually putting the add in...There are infinite ways to do so.
First, you determine if the existing locations do the job for you:

Then you can simply paste the adsense code into the template in the ACP.
See:

You can get quite fancy if you want - for instance, my forums have slots in each forum which I can sell to advertisers. You can have ads show for just some users.
You have have guests see MORE ads.....look at Digitalpoints ad thingy:
http://xenforo.com/community/resources/digital-point-ad-positioning.232/
<script type="text/javascript"><!--
google_ad_client = they put your pubID here";
/* Droneflyers */
google_ad_slot = "3331645393";
google_ad_width = 728;
google_ad_height = 90;
//-->
</script>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
</script>
so where I can choose which ads are shown or does google decide all that? I've never operated with adsense I'm pretty lost - I attached the necessary information but for some reason it just comes up blank on my website.??
Color me confused.
You have to create ads in the adsense website and then copy the code to where you want the ad to display. The publisher ID is never used for anything except deeply embedded in the full code they give you.
Google adsense - My ads - + New Ad Unit.
The ad code looks like this - was that what you were asking?
Code:<script type="text/javascript"><!-- google_ad_client = they put your pubID here"; /* Droneflyers */ google_ad_slot = "3331645393"; google_ad_width = 728; google_ad_height = 90; //--> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script>
Correct, and they are very friendly and helpful. We also get customized emails about things to improve based on success stories with other sites. We have done a lot the past 6 months. The difference is huge, started very low at a few € / day (I didn't really care much at that point) , now at 80-100 / day so it's well worth investing time in to figure out the best locations and practices.BTW, if you are using Adsense and if you grow large enough to be on the radar for Google an expert will contact you and try to help you (giving tipps in improving)...
damn... what kind of traffic are you seeing?Correct, and they are very friendly and helpful. We also get customized emails about things to improve based on success stories with other sites.

Traffic has been steady for the past two years at around 500-600K unique visitors and 5.5-6.5 million page views per month.damn... what kind of traffic are you seeing?
Ah.. I'm at about 4-5k views per day, this may not even be worth it for me. I have a google adsense account just getting acclimated with it.Traffic has been steady for the past two years at around 500-600K unique visitors and 5.5-6.5 million page views per month.
