adsense in middle of post in blogger

Posted by HANIF Monday, September 21, 2009 0 comments

Problem

In the famous Google AdSense heat map are reported the most profitable areas where to put advertising for your site or blog.
There is no mention of a placement in the middle of your posts. Why?
Because by default Blogger, the blogging platform offered by Google, doesn’t offer a way to break a post in the middle and put there an ad.
But, if you search very carefully on the Net, you’ll find that several webmasters tried to put ads in that position and report a significant increase in profits.

This site doesn’t confirm an increase in profits when an ad is in the middle of a post, but explains how to put AdSense in the middle of a Blogger post.


Solution

There is a simple way to solve this problem: move post body around the advertising code, just with a bunch of JavaScript and a couple of DIVs. In 2 easy steps:

  1. In your Blogger template:


    OLD BLOGGER

    Find the tag <$BlogItemBody$> and replace it with following code:







      <$BlogItemBody$>




    NEW BLOGGER

    Find the tag (you must check Expand Widget Templates in Blogger console) and replace it with following code:

    expr:id='"aim1" + data:post.id'>





    expr:id='"aim2" + data:post.id'>




    Note that you must replace with block code provided by Google.


  2. In every blog post:

    Put a special comment
    in the exact point you want to appear AdSense advertising.
    Done!

Look at the old Blogger example
Look at the new Blogger example




Questions
  1. Does this method violate Google ToS?

    No. Answering a direct support request Google stated this method doesn't violate any of their program policies.


  2. What if I forget to put in a post the comment?

    Nothing. The advertising block will appear in the traditional position you defined in your template before implementing this modification.

    Look at the example


  3. What happens in Blogger home page and archive pages where there several posts with comment appears together?

    Exactly the same thing happening before this modification: Google automatically inject in your posts up to 3 AdSense blocks. So just the first 3 posts (in a top-down order) in your home page or archive pages will have ads.

    Look at the example


  4. Can I automate the injection of AdSense in the middle of my posts without manually inserting the comment?

    Yes, but you’ll need to change the JavaScript code listed above with the following one:


    OLD BLOGGER



    NEW BLOGGER



    Look at the old Blogger example
    Look at the new Blogger example

Notes
There are a couple of different approaches to solve the stated problem, both not working:
  1. Write all AdSense code block directly inside the post.

    This is not working because Blogger will warn you it’s prohibited to insert JavaScript code inside a post.
    Even bypassing the error (flagging Stop showing HTML errors for this post) what you’ll get is not what you wanted.

  2. Write a JavaScript to move AdSense code block in the middle of our post.

    While this method works, it’s prohibited by the Google ToS since you have to modify the AdSense code itself.

This method also works with other advertising systems, like Yahoo! Publisher Network (YPN), Microsoft adCenter, Chitika, AdBrite, or others.

Flash Label Cloud For Blogger

Posted by HANIF Sunday, August 09, 2009 0 comments


AnnouncementsBlogger News and IssuesBlogger Template Design SeriesBlogger TemplatesCustom DomainsCustomize your Blogger TemplateFeeds and SyndicationFree Blogger TemplatesGeneralImages Icons and BadgesLabels Categories and TagsMonetize Your BlogReaders QuestionsResourcesSEO and Blog TrafficShowcaseToolsWeekly ReviewWidgets and Add-ons" allowscriptaccess="always" width="460" height="200"> "Blogumus" is an Flash based tag cloud widget which uses scripts converted from Roy Tanck's WP Cumulus plugin for Wordpress. I fell in love with Roy's original Cumulus plugin when I saw it, and simply had to learn how to convert this for use in Blogger powered blogs. The result is the widget you can see in action at the top of this post. Hover your mouse over the Flash object to see the animation begin. In this post, I'll explain how you can add Blogumus to your own Blogger layout with ease!

Update: Improved Widget Code

I have updated the code required to run this widget to activate links in the tag cloud Flash movie. If you have already installed Blogumus, please replace your widget code with the new updated code, or reference the additional lines to modify your existing installation.

How it works

This widget uses a combination of JavaScript and Flash animation to parse and display your blog labels. Once installed in your template, it should work "out of the box" without any additional tweaking required, though of course you may prefer to change the variables for color, background and size if appropriate :) You should also be able to move the Label Cloud widget through the Page Elements page of your dashboard if you prefer display in a different layout location. To see Blogumus in action, both Flash and Javascript must be installed and enabled for your internet browser. However, it does degrade relatively gracefully, and label links will still be clickable (though not animated) for those who do not use JavaScript of Flash (including search engine spiders).

How to install Blogumus in your Blogger layout

Installing Blogumus in your Blogger layout is surprisingly simple! You should only need to copy and paste a section of code to your Blogger template, though any tweaks for the style of display will require some manual editing. Here are the steps required to install Blogumus in your Blogger layout: Go to Layout>Edit HTML in your Blogger dashboard, and search for the following line (or similar):
Immediatly after this line, paste the following section of code:










Then preview your template. If installed correctly, you should see the tag cloud appear in your sidebar. Then you are free to save your template, edit the colors and dimensions as required, or move it to a different location. That's all!

Customizing Blogumus

In this default installation, Blogumus includes the following preset variables:
  • Width is set to 240px
  • Height is set to 300px;
  • Background color is white
  • Test color is grey
  • Font size is "12"
If you would prefer to make your widget wider, shorter, change the color scheme, etc, you will need to do this by editing various parts of the code. I'll go through these options in the order they appear in the widget code. Editing width and height The variables for width and height are found in this line of the script:
var so = new SWFObject("http://halotemplates.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-cumulus-example/tagcloud.swf", "tagcloud", "240", "300", "7", "#ffffff");
The width (currently 240) is highlighted in red, while the height (300px default) is highlighted in blue. These numerical values specify the width and height in pixels, so you can alter these of you prefer. Editing background color You can change the background color from white to any other color by altering the hex value in the same line:
var so = new SWFObject("http://halotemplates.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-cumulus-example/tagcloud.swf", "tagcloud", "240", "300", "7", "#ffffff");
For example, if you prefer a bright red background, you may replace #ffffff with #ff0000. Take a look at this page for a list of commonly used hex color codes. Alter the color of text By default, the text is set to display as dark grey ( hex value #333333). You can alter this variable in the following line:
so.addVariable("tcolor", "0x333333");
Be aware that "tcolor" is a Flash variable and doesn't include the usual hash symbol of hex color codes. Be sure to only replace the numbers! Adjust the font size The maximum font size of tags is specified in this line:
so.addVariable("tagcloud", "12'>");
You can alter this to ensure tags are displayed in a bigger or smaller font if you prefer by changing "12" to a larger or smaller number. While making any of these changes, you should be able to preview your widget and be certain that your new choice of color, dimensions and background are suitable for your needs.

Credits, support and requirements

Blogumus is based on the original WP Cumulus plugin by Roy Tanck, and was converted for use with Blogger layouts by myself. Please leave the credit links in the widget code intact. These will not be seen by the majority of your blog readers (as they will only display if JavaScript and Flash is not activated) but leaving these links intact is a great way of passing some link love on to Roy for all his hard work, and to inform other Blogger users that they can find the widget codes on this site.

Support/Issues

If you have any problems installing or using this widget, please leave your comments below or direct these to the Blogger Buster forums as Roy will be unable to provide support for installation in Blogger blogs!

Requirements

For Blogumus to display properly in your template, you will need to have Flash Player 7 or higher. You can download the latest Flash Player plugin for your browser from Adobe. I'm not sure that this installation will support special characters as tags (only Latin characters supported at present). If you do experiecce issues with labels displaying incorrectly, please let me know. I'll try to add more support, but have very little experience using Flash!

Your thoughts?

I hope that you enjoy using Blogumus in your own Blogger blogs! Please feel free to share or syndicate this page with your favorite bookmarking service if you think it is worth a mention, or subscribe to the newsfeed to learn of more great Blogger tutorials as they are posted.

Customizing Blogger post Navigation script

Posted by HANIF Sunday, June 28, 2009


Blogger Blogs have default post navigation script which allows user to navigate between posts.It consists of ” older posts” , “Newer posts” and ” Home page” link. Since it’s default , no CSS codings are added for the navigation script. So in this post I will explain how to modify the script and to add background images and then aligning the older posts and newer posts links properly.

Know the script codes

Before explaining how to customize the codes , I would like to explain the tags involved in the blogger templates which control the blogger post navigation script.

CSS codes

Firstly, let us see the default code included in minima or Rounders blogger template.

#blog-pager-newer-link {
float: $startSide;
margin-$startSide: 13px;
}

#blog-pager-older-link {
float: $endSide;
margin-$endSide: 13px;
}

#blog-pager {
text-align: center;
}

instead of startside and endside we can have left and right respectively.
#blog-pager-newer-link : this code contains the css necessary for newer posts link
#blog-pager-older-link : this code contains the css necessary for older posts link
and #blog-pager controls the contains necessary for Home page links.

If you are using custom blogger template , then you will find something like this :
#blog-pager-newer-link {
padding-left : 20px;
border : none;
float : left;
}
#blog-pager-older-link {
float : right;
padding-right : 20px;
border : none;
}
#blog-pager {
padding : 0 15px 0;
text-align : center;
}
.blog-pager a {
color : #cc0000;
}
.blog-pager a:hover {
color : #cc0000;
}

XML tags which shows the post navigation links

Now let us see the default tags included in the blogger templates which shows post navigation links.To see this tag , you need to check ” expand widget templates” option in EDIT HTML page of the blogger template.

There you can find the following tag













As mentioned in the CSS codes itself,

  • contains the code to show newer post links.
  • contains the code necessary to show older posts link.
  • will contain the code necessary to show Home Page Link.

Hope now you know about the code which controls the Older post and Newer post links for post navigation. Now let us see how to customize this script to suit our blogger template.

Adding background image along with text

Let us see how to add Background image to the text Older Posts and Newer Posts.
Go to EDIT HTML SUBTAB and then search this following code or similar.

#blog-pager-newer-link {
float: $startSide;
margin-$startSide: 13px;
}

#blog-pager-older-link {
float: $endSide;
margin-$endSide: 13px;
}

#blog-pager {
text-align: center;
}

Now replace the whole code with

#blog-pager-newer-link {
background : url(http://i43.tinypic.com/11bro1s.jpg) no-repeat left 0%;
padding-left : 20px;
border : none;
float : left;
}
#blog-pager-older-link {
float : right;
background : url(http://i44.tinypic.com/2n6dirp.jpg) no-repeat right 0%;
padding-right : 20px;
border : none;
}
#blog-pager {
padding : 0 15px 0;
text-align : center;
}
.blog-pager a {
color : #cc0000;
}
.blog-pager a:hover {
color : #cc0000;
}

In that you can change the background images and then customize the color of the text. That’s it now save your template , you can find something like this :
post navigation image

Replace Image with Background images

To replace the “older posts” , ” Newer Posts” and “Home” text with background images , follow these simple steps.

replace the css code for blog post navigation widget with this code

#blog-pager-newer-link {
padding-left : 20px;
border : none;
float : left;
}
#blog-pager-older-link {
float : right;
padding-right : 20px;
border : none;
}
#blog-pager{
padding:50px 10px 10px 10px;
text-align:center;
}
.blog-pager a{
color:#A10000
}

.blog-pager a:hover{
color:#15FFED
}

and then save your template. Now check ” Expand Widget Templates” option and now replace the



















with this code





’techieblogger.com’



’Techie


’Techie


’Techie



You can change the images included with your own blog navigation images. After that save your template and check your blog. You can find a blog navigation links something like this :


post navigation

Show blog post navigation above posts title

You can also show the blog post navigation script above post title too. In order to implement this hack , go to EDIT HTML page of your blog and check ” EXPAND WIDGET TEMPLATES” option. Now search this tag in your template.

Now paste the following code immediately below it

Troubleshooting problems with blog post navigation script

Few might have noticed that the Blog post navigation links will be misaligned sometimes. Newer post , Older post and Home page links will get together. So it means that the CSS codes are missing for the file. To overcome this problem , just copy and paste the corresponding CSS code you need above ]]> .

Blog post navigation missing

Sometimes the blog post navigation may be missing in your blog. It’s because the blog post navigation code may be missing in your template. To overcome this problem , search this tag in your template with ” expand widget templates” option enabled.

if the tag is missing , then add the above tag in your template below as shown in the image.

19 ways of to share your post and increse the traffic

Posted by HANIF Saturday, June 20, 2009 0 comments

One of the best things about the web and social media is how much great information is written and produced every single day. If you’re a regular reader of blogs, you probably come across great articles that you just want everyone to know about. But what’s the best way to share these posts?

1. Using Twitter to Tweet and Share: Perhaps the fastest and most effective way to share a great blog post is through Twitter. Sharing or retweeting a link in Twitter can spread like wildfire. Use a URL shortener such as tinyurl or bit.ly to shorten links to fit within 140 characters.

2. Posting to Facebook: Sharing a blog post on the world’s largest social network is as simple as going to the Facebook homepage and posting a link.

3. Digg it: Not only will you help bring that blog post one step closer to reaching the front page of the news site Digg (which will spread it even further), but all of your Digg friends will see it as well.

4. Post on MySpace Profile: Don’t forget about the world’s second largest social network when sharing your favorite articles. Post the link to your MySpace profile so your friends can enjoy it too.

5. Posting to LinkedIn: Some blog posts are worthy of being shared by your business network onLinkedI. Post a link to the Network Updates area in the homepage.

6. Stumbling on StumbleUpon Stumble the post! StumbleUpon is a favorite network for discovering fun websites and useful information, so make sure that you give the post a thumbs up. The StumbleUpon Toolbar is the easiest way to Stumble.

7. Bookmarking to Delicious: Delicious is great for not only sharing posts, but for helping categorize blog posts for others to find. In addition, you can import your delicious bookmarks toFacebook, FriendFeed, and other social media websites.

8. Sharing on FriendFeed: The social media aggregator FriendFeed has a vibrant community who love to share videos, links, and pictures. Use the FriendFeed bookmarklet to quickly share a good blog post to FriendFeed.

9. Adding to Reddit: Reddit is another great social media site for sharing and voting on articles. It’s quick and easy to submit a link

10. Reblogging Great Posts: Blogging about a great article is one of the best ways to engage with the topics being discussed. Post a link, write some commentary, and share it with all of your readers. And don’t forget to share your own blog post as well!

11. Sharing via Google Reader: Google Reader has a great feature for sharing blog posts. If you use Google Reader as your news reader of choice, all you have to do is click the “share” button at the bottom of blog posts to share it with all of your Google friends. You can also add notes and comment as well.

12. Posting on Tumblr or Posterous: If you want to share something via a blog, but don’t want to write a full blog post about it, there are great options for that as well, primarily Tumblr and Posterous. They are the quick and easy versions of full-fledged blogs, ideal for posting about pictures and blog posts.

13. TwitThat: TwitThat is one of the quickest and easiest tools for sharing blog posts. It will post to your Twitter quickly and easily. Just add the bookmarklet to your browser toolbar and click it whenever you come across a great post.

14. Shareaholic Firefox Extension: There are a lot of great social networks where you can share a great post, but who wants to visit Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, and LinkedIn to share a post? If you are a Firefox user, then install Shareaholic, an extension that goes on your toolbar. It provides quick links for sharing to all of the major social networks.

15. Ping.fm: If you’re a busy person, you might not have time to share on all of these social media websites. Isn’t there an easy way to share a blog post everywhere, all at once? Ping.fm links to all of your social networks and sends your updates to LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, to any other website you wish to link to it. You can even update from your instant messenger. It’s the perfect solution for those who like to share content all over the web.

Other Ways of Sharing

16. Emailing: Email has always been a good way to share articles, especially with close friends and family. Although it may not reach as many people as Twitter, it will definitely reach anyone who isn’t as deep into social media as you are.

17. Changing IM Statuses: You probably have dozens, if not hundreds of IM contacts. Share great posts with all of them by changing your IM status to a great post you just read or wrote.

18. IMing a friend: If changing an IM status seems too impersonal, then just IM your friends the link. You can then have a fun chat about the blog post.

19. Talking to Friends: If you don’t have a computer handy, then don’t forget about the analog approach – call a friend or tell him or her over coffee about a great blog post you read. You can always send the link later if necessary.

The higher a Web site ranks in the results of a search, the greater the chance that that site will be visited by a user.
