A majority of our clients should have the wordpress plugin "Quick Adsense" installed in your blogs.

The plugin now boasts more options for your sidebar widget rather than the previous limitation of only three available ad units for that area. If you need help upgrading this plugin or would like us to do it for you, please submit a support ticket and we'll gladly help you out.

If you are unsure how to do this, please submit a support ticket and I'll take care of it for you.
