Adsense integration together with nice welcome message - StarBuG optimized blending
Developer Last Online: Nov 2022
Introduction:
I am StarBuG, a clinical Physician for Children, and I am running several health Forums to support patients with medical questions. During the many years I am running my Forums I constantly worked on optimizing my Advertising integrations to maximize my earnings and the user experience using my forums. The click through rates for my Adsense integrations are good to very good for forums and may increase due to further optimizations so mark this mod as installed if you use it to make sure you always use the best optimized version of my adsense integration. What this mod does: This mod adds a Google Adsense large rectangle below the navbar together with an eye catching welcome message and a call to action (registration). This ad is the best performing ad on my forum. I run a forum with a fixed width and I think that on a fluid style this mod wont look that good but give it a try if you want. Installation instructions: in the template navbar find: Code:
{vb:raw ad_location.global_below_navbar} Code:
<vb:if condition="THIS_SCRIPT != 'search' AND !$show['notices'] AND $show['guest']"> <div class="ads_lr_wrapper"> <div class="ads_lr"> YOUR GOOGLE ADSENSE CODE HERE </div> <div class="ads_lr_welcome"> <p id="welcome_bold_big">Welcome to YOUR FORUM NAME</p><br> <p id="welcome_normal">your forum for YOUR THEME</p><br> <ul> <li><b> »</b> some things people find</li> <li><b> »</b> on your forum</li> <li><b> »</b> some reasons why</li> <li><b> »</b> guests should register</li> </ul> <br> <p id="welcome_bold">...then you have come to the right place!</p><br> <p id="welcome_normal">we will try to help you with your problem.</p><br> <p id="welcome_bold_big"><a href="http://www.YOURDOMAIN.com/register.php">YES! I want to register an account for free right now!</a></p><br /> <p id="welcome_small">p.s.: For registered members YOUR FORUM NAME is free of ads</p> </div> </div> </vb:if> Code:
/*------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | #> Large Rectangle Ad + Welcome Text below navbar +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ .ads_lr_wrapper { border: 2px solid #274C84; -moz-border-radius-bottomleft:5px; -moz-border-radius-bottomright:5px; -moz-border-radius-topleft:5px; -moz-border-radius-topright:5px; background: #ffffff; width:850px; height:290px; padding: 5px 5px 5px 5px; } .ads_lr { position: relative; background: #ffffff; width: 336px; margin-left: 10px; margin-right: 30px; float:left; } .ads_lr_welcome { background: #ffffff; position: relative; width: 460px; margin-top: 10px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: 10px; float:right; } #welcome_normal { font-size:normal; font-family:Helvetica; text-decoration:none; text-align: left; } #welcome_small { font-size:x-small; font-family:Helvetica; text-decoration:none; text-align: left; } #welcome_bold { font-weight:bold; font-size:normal; font-family:Helvetica; text-decoration:none; text-align: left; } #welcome_bold_big { font-weight:bold; font-size:large; font-family:Helvetica; text-decoration:none; text-align: left; color:#274C84; } Additional Comments: Make sure you change all lines marked RED to fit your forum. Of course you should customize the welcome text to fit your forum and change the colors and size of the welcome box to fit your forums theme. Screenshot: More of my Adsense Integrations:

can you send me the adsense email via PM please.
I doubt that it has something to do with this Advertising. a) I use it for years as do hundreds of others and b) there is nothing against it in the TOS It is not tricking users, it does not overlap anything, it does not float, nothing that could be against AdSense TOS or Guidelines |

Hello Star BG,
I used vB 4.1.9 with a fixed style, but I have problem with the design, I don't see the border, and the space between the Ads and the welcome text (on the right), is very large. Have you some suggestion for me please? Link Thank you, Regards |
