Most of the time you see that many of pro bloggers and
webmasters are using Ads or Search Box in Header of their blog or website, but
you are unable to do so as a BlogSpot user. The
reason is that if you are using blogger default template, or in almost each
template which are available on internet have no option to Add a gadget just next to blog title or in a blog Header.
The reason of using Ads or different widgets in a blogs header is because of its maximum of number of impressions. The first place in a blog where visitor give a first look when they arrive on blog makes it one of hottest or premium region. So the benefits
of using Ads, social sharing buttons, Search boxes in such areas increase the
chances to get more click through rate (CTR) and impressions.
You can check the hottest region of your site using Heat maps.
Steps For Inserting ADD A GADGET in Blogger Header:
To insert a new Add a Gadget at right side in header of your
blog like that
You must have to follow these steps.
1: Login to Blogger.com
2: Go to Site dashboard
3: Template and next HTML (before start HTML editing make sure
to make Backup or restore your template)
4: Now press CTRL+F and search for this code:
<b:section class='header' id='header' maxwidgets='1' showaddelement='no'><b:widget id='Header1' locked='true' title='My Test Blog (Header)' type='Header'/></b:section>
5: After that grab following piece of code:
<b:section id='header-right' showaddelement='yes'/><div style='clear: both;'/>
And paste it after
</b:section>
6: So, the final code will be look like that :
<b:section class='header' id='header' maxwidgets='1' showaddelement='no'><b:widget id='Header1' locked='true' title='My Test Blog (Header)' type='Header'/></b:section><b:section id='header-right' showaddelement='yes'/><div style='clear: both;'/>

are visible in header of your blog. In most of blogspot templates it is not necessary that both Add a Gadget widgets will appear in line in layout. They might be slightly up and down or overlapping each other. Well if your are getting new section then it is welland good otherwise don't worry and just ping me I will surely try to make it possible.

this space for Advertisement, or you can also insert Adsense ads to boost your
