Administrators can set the percentage of how much the admin ad is displayed. For this they just have to fill up a field in their profile section with their adsense publisher id.
This plugin adds a field to all your blog post authors’ profiles for inserting their Google adsense publisher id and creates a Settings page which will be accessible to admin of the website. The settings page include a field to fill up admin’s adsense pub id as well as the position where the ad should be displayed along with the option to add a widget on the sidebar.
