How to Move Your First Sidebar Ad

For Mediavine Ad Management Customers: learn how to move your first (non-sticky) sidebar ad with Trellis.

If you are a Mediavine Ad Management customer, you know that site speed is always a priority for us!

We recommend keeping your first sidebar ad targeted below the first screenview. If that first ad is targeted too high, you may lose impressions. To keep things fast AND retain all of your ad impressions, sometimes you need to move that first sidebar ad down a little.

With Trellis, you can easily move where your top sidebar ad displays, by using the Mediavine Sidebar Ad Hint widget.

To add this widget, head to WordPress > Appearance > Widgets and add the Mediavine Sidebar Ad Hint widget to the sidebar:

Be sure to drag the Mediavine Sidebar Ad Hint widget below the last widget that appears in the first screenview.

Once you’ve added the widget, you’re all set! Just view your site in an incognito window to make sure your top sidebar ad is displaying.
