Google Adsense Ads is one of the best advertisement platform created and run by Google itself.
It allows beginners, and professional bloggers to get an opportunity to earn money by showing ads to the visitors who visit their website. Ads can be in a form of texts, images, or sometimes videos also.
One of the benefits of using AdSense is that you don’t need to contact the advertisers because it’ll be offered by Google itself.
Google gives you an option to select the methods to place Adsense Ads On the WordPress site. There are two types of methods to set GoogleAdsense Ads On a WordPress site.
Types of ads in Google Adsense
Manual Ads:
Manual Ads are a somewhat lengthy process. You need to manually select the type of ads, the unit of the ads, the length of the ads. All these are standard designed by Google.
Here, it asks you to name your ads and to select the place where you want to place them. In short, all the procedures we have to do manually.
Auto Ads:
Most of the time it’s irritating to add a single ad at a time, because 90 % of the users don’t know what to place where, and when.
So, Google has made a product called auto ads, it allows you to simply write or paste one code to your website. And ads will be automatically placed on the site.
Nowadays, almost all bloggers are using the auto ads function to set Google Adsense Ads On WordPress sites. Because it gives ease to access to the Adsense, and it’s very much easy for earning money.

Login to your AdSense account.
On the left side click on ads.
Click on Auto ads.
Click on global settings
Enable all of them
(Vignette ads, Anchor ads, Text & display ads, In article ads, In-feed ads, Matched content). If you don’t want every ad then enable it accordingly.
Auto ads will automatically display ads on your pages, you don’t need to place codes(as you already set their code between heads during the signup process). Google will find a place for ads accordingly.
Now click on Ad units.
You will see 3 types of ad units.
Display ads.
Name your ad unit: like display ads or whatever you want. You can change it later.
Display ad preview: select square, vertical or horizontal according to your needs.
Choose Ad Size: Responsive or fixed (responsive recommended)
Click on create, copy the code.
create a new widget and paste the code into the text. (Not on the visual)
{Codes are always used and placed in the texts, in visual you can only write}
Place the widget wherever you want.
My recommended position is in the sidebar.
Native In-feed.
Let Google suggest a style for your page.
Enter your page URL – Scan – Select a content block – done.
Create ad manually.
Select a template – click next
Fill up ad unit name
Choose your font, borders, background colours, etc. Resize as you want.

Copy the code and paste it manually between your blog posts, wherever you want. (In-text format not on visual one)
Native In-article.
Again, fill up the ad unit name.
Choose font.
Resize accordingly.
Save and copy code.
Place it in your blog posts wherever you want.
Do not use widgets for Native In-article and In-feed ads. Place it directly inside your blog posts.
I suggest you not place more than 3 ads because it can slow down your website speed.
