This code is very important as it is responsible for checking publisher's website for issues, generating reports, allocating ad units, and everything important for monetization.

The next step for publishers is to create ad units and placements. This is where ad tags are required. Using ad tags, publishers can customize the ad units including size, preferable colors, and targeting options. Then these ad tags can be placed on webpages at suitable placement and start showing ads.


Publishers place two types of codes

  • Head code

This is a site-wide placement that continuously monitors the website to required collect details. This is also required for other AdSense code on the website to work.

  • Ad tags

These are customized ad units that can vary for different webpages. These codes are responsible to fetch the type of ad creative customized by publishers.
