• Originally, I posted this question on the Google support forum as Google requested and it got ignored — so I am hoping I will have better luck supporting it here.

    The algorithm used by the AdSense WordPress plugin for determining where it places the slots that ads might go in is not working too well for my web serial-fiction (which I maintain through WordPress).

    In the story-episode posts, it many times does quirky things such as consider the first few minor-paragraphs to not be part of a paragraph (therefore putting it before an ad that is supposed to precede even the first paragraph — which could confuse my readers) — or treat the last few minor-pargraphs as though they are not part of a paragraph (therefore putting them after an add that is supposed to be after the last paragraph — which can be *very* confusing to my readers).

    Such quirks have limited my ability to place ads in story-episode posts — as I am unwilling to so confuse my readers in this way.

    As for the front-page (which in the case of my web-fiction is the table-of-contents) the only places where the plugin even *offers* to place ads are places that would *seriously* compromise the navigational user-friendliness of the site —- which completely *prevents* me from putting *any* ads on *that* page, as compromising the navigational user-friendliness of my site is also not something I would do to my readership.
