New Way to Manage Adsense

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

A few days ago Google released a teaser of a feature that would enable you to not have to change your Adsense code everytime you made a change to the appearance of the code. This feature is not started to roll out to every publisher, and today it was enabled for my account.

I have just finished setting it up for one ad unit of mine, the 300×250 ad spot here on this blog. There seems to be a little delay before changes show up (and before the ad will initially start showing up for new ad units). All in all I have to say so far so good.

To find out whether or not it has been enabled on your blog yet. Log into Adsense then click on the Adsense Setup tab. If you see a link called “Manage Ads” it means your account has this new feature enabled.

While setting up new ads, they have added one step at the end, where you name and submit your new ad unit. It will be best to use very descriptive wordage for new ads so you know exactly where they are. That way when you need to change the appearance of ads you will be able to find which one to edit more easily.

Once you have ads setup and ready you can use the Manage Ads link to well manage your ads. This screen will list all the ads you have created with links to edit the ad, preview what it will look like, as well to get the code for the ad.
