Google Adsense is the preferred advertisement platform for most Bloggers. It is very easy to implement. It can be added to the Blogger site in so many ways. But basically, in three ways -
1) By choose to auto display ads by Blogger
2) by adding the Adsense code in HTML/JavaScript widgets or
3) directly adding in the Blogger template.


While adding in HTML/JavaScript widget is the simplest way to add Adsense code to Blogger, the flexibility in position the display is a bit limited as we can only show where widgets can be displayed by default, controlled by the regions in the layout page. Otherwise, we can also add Adsense code directly int he Blogger template code. Flexibility of positioning the display is more. In this post we shall see how to display Adsense in the homepage right after the first post.
