 * Hi,
    I have managed to place an ad (adsense) between the first and second post
   on the homepage of my blog. I did this by inserting some code in the main index
   template of my child theme. The problem now is how to style the ad. As you can
   see by visiting my blog, the ad is smack on top of the title of my second post.
   I have tried all sorts of way of calling the adsense ad in the stylesheet to 
   add a margin underneath, but to no avail. If any of you know how I could add 
   some space between the ad and the post, please help me! Thank you so much! Sincerely,
   Maria creativevegancooking.com

 * Hi Maria,
 * I don’t know if that’s the best way to implement the ad, just as an aside.
 * To answer your question, I think you can probably surround your ad with a div
   and style it that way.
 * Example:
 *     ```
       <div style="margin-bottom:20px">
       (your ad code)
       </div>
       ```

 * Great! It works. Thanks!
    Where would you suggest to put the ads for maximum 
   benefit (I don’t want the site to look spammy)?

 * That’s a very hard question to answer in terms of spammy-ness lol.
 * To some, ads will always look spammy, regardingless of where or how.
 * I guess mixing it in with your content might be the best for ‘maximum benefit’,
   but you might want to get second and third opinions as well.
