Google AdSense - can I limit which pages the ads appear on?

I have a website www.bankaccounts-for-badcredit.com.

I have various affiliate banners to do with those sorts of accounts.

However, I also have a section on their about "Credit Cards for Bad Credit" which is just two pages at the moment. Until I can sort out getting approved to have some affiliate banners relating to those sorts of credit cards I thought that I would put Google AdSense on BUT JUST ON THOSE TWO PAGES.

Can anyone tell me if it is possible to limit Google AdSense ads to appear on specific pages of my website as, in the past, when I have used Google AdSense, the ads have appeared on every page of my website? If it is possible, what do I need to do to achieve that?It is a Wordpress site.

Thank you all once again for your help.

Kind Regards

Alan

Generally speaking, a wordpress site will have a page.php or other template file that it uses for use when you make a new page. Often times, it's as simple as copying, renaming it to something like page-with-adsense.php, editing it to insert the adsense code where you want it, then when you make a new page in the wordpress system, select that page as the template (right sidebar under page attributes).

Oh, and you can use a plugin like What The File which will tell you what template / parts are being used in displaying an existing page on your site, so you know which to copy/edit.

For now, you could remove Adsense widgets which will usually cause your ads to appear in ma fixed spot through out the site, such as the side bar or header. Then, you could manually input the Adsense code on individual pages where you want advertising to appear. This might be a time intensive job, however, it would be better than risking your account based on ads that appear on one or two pages. Another option is to completely disable ads on all pages, though I'm sure you don't want to go that direction.
