Easy AdSenser manages all aspects of Google AdSense for your blog. It inserts ads into your posts and sidebar, and displays a Google Search box. Easy and complete!

== Description ==

*Easy AdSenser* provides a very easy way to insert Google AdSense code into your existing blog posts. It gives you a widget to display ads in your sidebar, and another to show a Google Search box. It also gives you an option to apply Google's policy (not more than three ad blocks per page) Thus, *Easy AdSenser* is perhaps the first plugin that gives you a complete solution for everything AdSense-related.

Most AdSense plugins I have seen suffer from a few drawbacks.

1. They try to handle too many ad providers.
1. As a result, they have complicated configuration and fairly inflexible layout options.
1. They embed some amount of revenue sharing, which makes the code complex.
1. Each time you switch your theme, you have to re-configure your AdSense code to match your color scheme.
1. They don't usually give you configurable widgets for your sidebar, forcing you to do extra work to Google-enable your sidebar.

My plugin does only AdSense, and provides the simplest configuration possible. No hidden revenue sharing is implemented. All I have is tiny link as a plug to my blog (and with instructions on how to remove it, if you must.)

= New Feture [in 1.7] =

*Easy AdSenser* now gives you an option on how to enforce the Google AdSense policy of not more than three ad blocks per page.

PS: You'll need a [Google AdSense Account](http://adsense.google.com/).

== Installation ==

1. Upload the *Easy AdSenser* plugin (the whole easy-adsenser folder) to the '/wp-content/plugins/' directory.
2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress.
3. Go to the Setup -> Easy AdSense and enter your AdSense code and options.
4. Go to Themes -> Widgets to add widgets to your side bar(s).

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= I just activated the plugin. How come I don't see any ads in my blog? =

If you just created the Google AdSense code, it may not be active yet. Google takes about ten minuites or so before serving ads. Please try again later.

= How come there aren't many frequently asked questions? =

Two possible reasons.

1. *Easy AdSenser* is so simple and straight-forward that no question could be thought of.
2. More likely, the plugin is too new for any questions.
