New Ad Management for Google Adsense

Note: Google will be rolling out this feature in phases in the next few weeks. You’ll know it’s available for you to use when you see the new Manage Ads page appear under your AdSense Setup tab.

If you’ve ever generated ad code in the past, then you’ll notice some changes in your account with our latest feature. This new ad management feature allows you to store details about an AdSense unit, including ad size, colors, and channel settings, on our servers. By keeping these details on our servers rather than in the ad code on your pages, you can make changes to the AdSense units on your pages from within your account.

Read on below for more details about the new ad management feature and how it will impact you.

What’s different about the way I create ads?

Google now offer the option to create new AdSense units which you can customize and update within your account to see changes directly on your site. When you create a new AdSense unit, details of the ad unit (like colors and channels) will be stored in your AdSense account. This gives you faster, simpler ad management, allowing you to make changes to an AdSense unit on-the-fly without needing to re-paste the ad code or make additional changes to the page itself.

How do I create an AdSense unit?

To create a new AdSense unit that you can manage within your account, follow the steps below. (The first few will seem pretty familiar to those of you who have generated code before.)

1. Sign in to your account at http://www.google.com/adsense.
2. Under the AdSense Setup tab, choose the Get Ads link.
3. Select AdSense for content as the product. The new AdSense units are only available for AdSense for content at this time.
4. Choose your ad type, format, colors, and channels just as you have in the past.
5. Give your AdSense unit a name that you can remember. We recommend including the site(s), page(s), or location(s) that the AdSense unit will be placed on, so you can easily identify it in the future should you wish to make updates.
6. Click Submit and Get Code.
7. Copy and paste the newly generated code onto your site.
