The Top 3 Google AdSense Ad Units
In Google’s Optimisation Essentials (Part I), Google’s top 3 AdSense Ad Units are:
- 300×250 medium rectangle
- 728×90 leaderboard
- 160×600 skyscraper
My personal favourite is the 300×250 medium rectangle. There has been some controversy over placing the medium rectangle below the blog titles. I have been doing it for years and nothing happened.
Here’s Google’s official take on this medium rectangle placement issue:


- Ads shouldn’t be placed under a title or section heading in a way that implies that the ads are not ads
- Ads should be easily distinguishable from surrounding content
I don’t think my ads look like the 2 examples above and I have never received any complaints from Google.
Someone from the Warrior forum reported that his PLR article-based sites was taken off by Google. Some bloggers have added an “advertisement” image or text above the medium rectangle as a fix for this.
I shall ask Google directly on what I should do with my medium rectange ads.
