I'd like to know what do you think are the best places to have ads? I currently have one in the sidebar (on the right) and one in the footer (which I don't expect clicks from).

For me, the ad placement that works the best is beside the first paragraph of my post. The second best location for me is in the header of my blog.

I had good success with putting an ad at the footer of my post, but so far the top of my post has been the best.
