Maybe this is technically difficult to fix or it's low priority, but the layout looks really untidy. I've asked a few times before but could it be left aligned with the ad?
....or alternatively, right align the ad.
Does the video really have to float? If readers stop to view it in it's initial position before it moves to the right sidebar, before they scroll down, it doesn't need to float when after they've finished viewing it. If they scroll down, they're not interested in it anyway and it doesn't need to float.
Just bumping this up again. Is there any way of fixing this? It appears ads can do what they like and there's no control over their behavior. Are the automated ads an off-the-shelf product? Can we lobby the people who make them to get their technical people to add a facility for controlling them?
If only we could lobby them effectively - bypassing TAG altogether?
This issue needs input from Mr Matt Wells but in the past methinks he has said he simply has no control whatsoever over the ad regime (or words to that effect) and that all writers should stop poking their noses into TAG's ad affairs and just apply said noses to the grindstone once again and churn out more articles etc etc etc ad nauseam.

When it shifts to the right when scrolling?Maybe I'm autistic or have OCD, but the lack of alignment really annoys me, and I'm probably not the only one who's irritated by the jumbled layout. Also Google could take this layout when they do their ranking based on user experience.

Adsense clicks: Do you think anyone really bothers to scroll all the way down to the bottom of hubs?In the technology category, particularly - two big Adsense ads are only right down at the bottom of the page, beyond the last comment. Do many people bother to scroll that far down on a page? I guess...

Hey fellow writers, I finally did it. I can now say I write on two platforms: HubPages and Medium! I published my first article today. I've been getting the daily articles for about 2 years but never made the time to become a writing member. I'm glad to be in the company of those who encouraged me...
