To add Google AdSense banner ads to your Webflow site, you can follow these steps:

  1. Sign up for Google AdSense: Before you can display AdSense banner ads on your website, you'll need to sign up for a Google AdSense account. Go to the Google AdSense website (https://www.google.com/adsense) and sign up for an account by providing all the necessary details and agreeing to the terms of service.

  2. Create an ad unit: Once you have an AdSense account, you'll need to create an ad unit. To do this, log in to your AdSense account and navigate to the "Ads" section. Click on "Ad units" and then click the "New ad unit" button. Provide a name for your ad unit and select the desired ad size and type (banner, leaderboard, etc.). Make sure to choose the appropriate ad format for your website design.

  3. Copy the AdSense code: After creating your ad unit, AdSense will generate an HTML code snippet. Copy this code to your clipboard.

  4. Add the AdSense code to your Webflow site: Log in to your Webflow account and navigate to the desired page where you want to place the AdSense banner ad. Open the page in the designer view.

  5. Add an HTML embed element: In Webflow's designer view, locate the section or container where you want to place the ad and add an HTML embed element. You can find the HTML embed element in the Elements panel on the right-hand side of the designer view.

  6. Paste the AdSense code: With the HTML embed element selected, paste the AdSense code snippet (that you copied in step 3) into the embed code field of the HTML embed element. The AdSense code should be placed between the opening "" tag.

  7. Preview and publish: After adding the AdSense code, preview your website to see how the ad will appear. If everything looks good, you can publish your website for the changes to take effect.

It's important to note that AdSense banner ads may take some time to start displaying on your website as Google needs to review your website and decide which ads are relevant for your content.

By following these steps, you should be able to successfully add Google AdSense banner ads to your Webflow site and start monetizing your website with advertising revenue.
