[Solved] How do i add google adsense banner into my blog sidebar?

Hi Alan,

Katrine here from Plak theme team,

Here are the stpes in order to show Google Adsense banners into your website

Step 1: Make sure your site is in compliance

Google does not accept any website into this program. You need to meet their eligibility requirements to be considered.

Google will review your website content before you get accepted. These are some examples of content that cannot be included on pages with Google ads:

• Mature or adult content
• Shocking content
• Excessive profanity
• Malware or adware
• Drugs or drug paraphernalia
• Sales of alcohol, tobacco, prescription drugs, weapons, or ammunition
• Illegal activity
• Hateful content or discrimination against religion, race, nationality, sexual orientation, gender, etc.

For the full updated list, please refer to Google’s eligibility requirements for AdSense.

Step 2: Apply to Google AdSense

Now that you meet the requirements, navigate to the Google AdSense website and apply as publisher

Step 3: Acceptance and choice of ad banners

After acceptance, you'll be given a login to access your Google Adsnese dashboard, you can chose the banners types and sizes.

Google will then automatically generate a code for you to add to your website.

Step 3: Paste the code to your Plak theme blog section

3.1 From your Shopify dahboard, click on Online store => Actions => Edit code

3.2 Look for blogsidebar.liquid and click on it

3.3 Paste your Adsense code wherever you want it to be displayed, for instance, if you would like it to be displayed under the search button, paste the code as follow

{% include 'icon-search' %}
>> YOUR GOOGLE ADSENSE CODE HERE <<

I hope this may help, in case you're still not able to do it, you can either contact us at contact@plaktheme.com or hire a Shopify expert from our partner TaskHusky
