Using Adsense is an easy way to make some extra money with a blog. I have experimented with a lot of different themes on a lot of different blogs and have found that the Prosense theme, which is Adsense ready, has by far made the most in Adsense earnings. A blog of mine that is using this theme is averaging triple the income from from blogs that enjoy more traffic and page rank.
I could not find the theme in the handy “automatic theme installer” function of the new WordPress 2.8 system. You can download it from DoshDosh here. Once you’ve downloaded and unzipped it, just FTP the theme into your WordPress content file or upload it from your hard drive via the Wordpress dashboard.
Once your theme is installed, you don’t need to mess around with going through each php page to figure out where your Adsense code belongs.
First, go to your Wordpress dashboard and select the “Editor” function for your theme’s appearance.

From the Editor, you’ll see that all of the Adsense blocks have separate PHP files.

Just put in your Adsense code in each of the special files and you’re set to make some money.
You can always tweak the CSS files to make the theme look uniquely yours.
I’ve seen “prettier” themes, but as far as earning Adsense on a blog, the Prosense theme has definitely been the most effective one that I’ve used. If you have a theme that’s worked for you, let us know in the comments area.
By the way, the theme is free.
