How to Place Anchor Ads in GeneratePress

My recommendation is to place anchor ads if you wanna increase your earnings,

Anchor ads are one of the top-performing units according to my tests.

#1 Activate Elements on GeneratePress

The first thing that you have to do is activate GP Premium and activate the elements sections.

Now that you have that ready, go to the elements sections.

#2 Create Ad Units

Go to your AdSense dashboard and create an ad unit so you can track how well this unit performs.

The code for that ad unit is gonna look close to this if you chose the fixed type.

<script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>
<!-- WPSurfer -->
<ins class="adsbygoogle"
     style="display:inline-block;width:300px;height:250px"
     data-ad-client="ca-pub-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
     data-ad-slot="xxxxxxxxxx"></ins>
<script>
     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
</script>

It is important that you don’t recycle existing ad units, so you can see how well these ad units perform on your site.

#3: Add Elements on GeneratePress

These are the steps to insert the code to display anchor ads on the mobile and desktop versions of your site.

Go to the element section from GeneratePress and:

Add new element
Choose “hook” among the available options
Click on “Create”
Name the element
Use the code below

<div class="grid-container anchorads">
<style>
.ad_A { width: 320px; height: 50px; }
@media(min-width: 800px) { .ad_A { width: 728px; height: 90px; } }
</style>
<script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-97979797979797979"
     crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
<ins class="adsbygoogle ad_A"
     style="display:block"
     data-ad-client="ca-pub-9797979797979797"
     data-ad-slot="9797979797"></ins>
<script>
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
</script>
</div>

<style>
.anchorads {position: fixed;bottom: 0;left: 50%;transform: translateX(-50%);width: fit-content;height: fit-content;}.anchorads ins.adsbygoogle {display: block !important;}
</style>

Replace the numbers with the numbers from the ad units you generated in step #2

By the way, the code was taken from the official Adsense website.

Fourth Step: Choose Where to Show ads

Now choose where to show the ads, go to settings and choose “generate after footer”

After that, go to the display rules tab and choose where you want the ads to show. Y

ou can choose the entire site or all posts.

You can also exclude posts and pages

Now you can publish the element

This is what you are gonna get on your desktop when you follow these steps:

And this is what you get on mobile.

Information about Using Sticky Ads

I think this is a good use of sticky ads. I recommend watching this video.

Make sure that the sticky ads don’t cover the content of your site
