Monetizing your website with Google AdSense is one of the most efficient ways to generate passive income online. However, your ad placement and visibility directly influence performance and revenue. If you’re looking for a lightweight, mobile-ready, and fully accessible floating ad unit, this updated guide will show you how to integrate it cleanly on any website.
Step-by-Step Setup
Follow the steps below to integrate the floating AdSense unit into your website. It requires no external frameworks and works on all devices using clean HTML and JavaScript.
Step 1: Add the AdSense Script
Insert the official AdSense script inside your website’s <head> section:
<script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
Replace ca-pub-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX with your AdSense Publisher ID, available in your AdSense account.
Step 2: Add the Floating Ad Unit Code
Add the following snippet just before the closing </body> tag of your site:
<!-- Fully Responsive Floating AdSense (Inline Only) -->
<script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
<div id="floatAd" role="region" aria-label="Advertisement" aria-live="polite" tabindex="0" style="position:fixed;z-index:9999;display:flex;flex-direction:column;align-items:flex-end;outline:none;max-width:90vw;margin:0;padding:0;box-sizing:border-box;opacity:0;transition:opacity .4s ease;">
<button id="adCloseBtn" aria-label="Close advertisement" aria-controls="floatAd" title="Close advertisement" style="border:none;background:rgba(0,0,0,.6);color:#fff;padding:3px;font-size:12px;cursor:pointer;line-height:1;">✕</button>
<ins class="adsbygoogle" aria-hidden="true" style="display:block;width:300px;max-width:100%;height:auto;" data-ad-client="ca-pub-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" data-ad-slot="XXXXXXXXXX" data-ad-format="auto" data-full-width-responsive="true"></ins>
</div>
<script>(function(){if(document.getElementById('floatAdLoaded'))return;const a=document.getElementById('floatAd'),b=document.getElementById('adCloseBtn'),s=12;a.id='floatAdLoaded';function r(){const w=window.innerWidth;if(w<420)return{bottom:s+'px',left:'50%',transform:'translateX(-50%)'};const p=[{bottom:s+'px',right:s+'px'},{bottom:s+'px',left:s+'px'},{top:s+'px',right:s+'px'},{top:s+'px',left:s+'px'}];return p[Math.floor(Math.random()*p.length)];}function apply(){Object.assign(a.style,r());a.style.maxWidth=window.innerWidth<420?'90vw':'320px';}function render(){try{(adsbygoogle=window.adsbygoogle||[]).push({});}catch(e){setTimeout(render,500);}}setTimeout(()=>{apply();render();a.style.opacity=1;},3000);b.addEventListener('click',()=>a.remove());document.addEventListener('keydown',e=>{if(e.key==='Escape')a.remove();});window.addEventListener('resize',apply);})();</script>
