Display Google Adsense in Feedburner RSS Feeds
If you’re using Feedburner for your blog’s RSS subscription, you should know by now that since Google bought over Feedburner, you can have your Adsense ads display within your Feedburner RSS feeds.
To do this, simple login to your Feedburner account and select your feed. Then click on “Monetize” and you should see a page that requires your Google Adsense account information, such as:
- Your email address for the Adsense account
- Your postal code (additional verification)
Once you’ve entered the details, you’ll be sent a verification email from Google Adsense, and you need to verify by clicking on a link. Then you’re taken to a page where you have to grant access to Feedburner, that allows Feedburner to retrieve and send information to and from your Adsense account.
Once you’ve done that, you should now see a page like the one below in your Feedburner account under “Monetize”:
Click “Activate” to activate the service, and build your Adsense ad format and colors as you would normally do when putting Adsense into your site or blog. If you have multiple RSS feeds you’ll need to activate it for each feed, and you can use the same account settings.
Note: For some reason your Custom Channels and Custom Palettes don’t show up in Feedburner. You have to sign-out and sign-in again for these to work properly.
Once you’ve build your ad, you’ll be given a specific code to paste into your Wordpress theme files, and the instructions given on how to this are pretty clear. If you’re already using Feddburner FeedFlares on your site, Adsense will show up automatically and you don’t really need to do anything.
There are some limitations with this service however:
- You can only display ads in the 468×60 and 300×250 format
- You cannot choose to show only text ads, so I’m guessing it will default to the configuration you’ve set in your Adsense account itself
- Once you’ve inserted the codes, Adsense ads who up on both your blog and your RSS feed, you cannot choose to display in your RSS feed only

Display Google Adsense in Feedburner RSS Feeds…
If you’re using Feedburner for your blog’s RSS subscription, you should know by now that since Google bought over Feedburner, you can have your Adsense ads display within your Feedburner RSS feeds….

Thanks for the info…
funny why we didnt receive any of these information from Feedburner

Thanks Gobala for the info. Will do that now. Cheers and Wish You A Happy and Prosperous New Year.
You bring this news clearly. I can understand your explanation before I read your entire post! Thanks for your usual support.
[...] info, visit here. Thanks to gobala [...]
There is one thing you should be careful about when using this feature of Feedburner. Your RSS subsribers are your fellow readers, and if they feel like they are going to monetize their friendship/readership, some of them can easily quit reading your blog.
Yeah Gobala, you are right. I am still suspicious about my blog, even though i aim to make a living by blogging. How can i know without trying? I think i should try first, and then decide what to do.
[...] The service that I used to handle all my feeds is FeedBurner. It’s simple to use and easy to set up. All you have to do is subscribe your site with FeedBurner, put a tracking code in your site, and let Feedburner do the rest for you. Once you are set-up with Feedburner, you can activate all the cool functions, such as allowing your readers to subscribe via email, and also the FeedFlares. FeedFlares allow you to add functionality to your feeds, and there are a couple of good ones that you will definitely need to drive more visitors to your blog such as Stumble Upon, Digg, Delicious, etc. Once you’ve activated the FeedFlares, they will appear in the bottom of your post. And since Google bought over FeedBurner, you can now display Google Adsense in your FeedBurner RSS Feed. [...]
Cheers for the help. I’m useless with feedburner and need all the help I can get at times.
I just set up AdSense for my site through Feedburner and the account has been linked but I do not see any channels in the Moneytize tab.
I even created a URL channel (I called it http://www.zenithpropertysolutions.com/blog) on AdSense but nothing is happening yet, what do you think I should do?
