What is a Sticky Bottom Ad?
A sticky ad is a fixed banner that stays visible at the same position while visitors scroll through your blog. These ads are often placed in headers, sidebars, or footers. In this guide, we focus on sticky footer ads for Blogger.
Avoid placing too many ads randomly as it may violate AdSense guidelines.
