This is a great news for Google Adsense Publishers. Now you can create Google Custom Ad Sizes that exactly fits to your blog size and layout. Though I was using a hack since few days to display custom ad sizes on my responsive design, Google finally openly introduced custom ad sizes for all publishers(previously it was available for only premium publishers). Few days back they introduced 300*600 ad unit, then responsive ads, A/B Split Testing and now custom ad sizes which will add extra $$ to your Adsense Account.
Getting Started with Custom Ad Sizes:
- Like we create a normal Ad Unit, creating a custom ad unit is quite simple.
- Login to your Account My Ads-> New Ad Unit ->Ad Size you choose Custom Size from the Drop Down.
Suggestions and Ideas before Getting Started with Custom Ads:
You might not notice a 100% fill rate with custom ad units. So I recommend you few things before getting started with Custom Ads.
- Use only Text Ads if you are trying out some unique ad formats.
- Try standard Ad Sizes like 600*90 , 592*300 and 600*300 for a good fill rate.
- Only one dimension can be greater than 300 pixels
- The minimum width is 120 pixels.
- The minimum height is 50 pixels.
- Neither height nor width can exceed 1200 pixels.
I already started taking Advantage of Custom Ad Unit as you can see in the below pictures:
I already implemented these custom ads on few of my blogs, still I am testing it out and will soon come up with a post on how to optimize size inorder to perform better.
