AdSense theme for WordPress. AdSense is all about the ads! The dull grey colorscheme is designed so that eyes are automatically drawn towards the adverts (in this case Google’s AdSense, although it is pretty straightforward to change them for Yahoo! ads or others as they are industry standard sizes). 3 ad units and 1 link unit are shown on each page, which is Googles maximum allowable. In addition, AdSense for search has been used to replace WordPress’ inbuilt search function.

The theme is intentionally basic with no images used. This makes it quick and easy to apply to any blog or site that is using WordPress as a CMS.

Some basic SEO has been carried out… the “title” and “h1″ tags contain the most relevant information… on a post page, the post title is used, on a category the category title is used etc. This should give Search Engines a better understanding of your page, and hence an improved ranking for your page. Another often overlooked advantage of correct use of tags is that your result in the SERPs will be formed correctly, so instead of your websites name (eg. pilkster.com) being used in every result, the page title (eg. SEO Adsense WordPress Theme) or category title will be used. This is a much more useful and appealing result for the searcher.

Adsense is located in the following files; header.php (728×15 linkunit), footer.php (728×90 adunit), sidebar.php (336×280 adunit, 160×600 adunit). Adsense for search is located in searchform.php. You will need to edit those files and ad your AdSense publisher ID (pub-id).

The Adsense theme has a widget enabled right-hand sidebar. This theme has been created with WordPress 2.1 “Ella” in mind.
