What is the average wait before ads show?

    I have seen ads take a few days while other times they show up instantly, what is the average time before they show up normally?

    they show up instantly, just got an account and insert the code in your page and ads will be shown up, there must be some content otherwise you will got public ads

    I think it depends on a variety of factors, mainly topic and keyword density. I just set up a site this past weekend and it took around 6 hours for all ads to be relevant. When I first inserted the code some pages showed entirely unrelated ads while others showed somewhat related ads.

    Yes, ads instantly show up. But relevant ads may show up after a few minutes, might vary though.

    In my experience, relevant ads show up after a few minutes and a few refreshes didn't hurt either :)

    Usually the ads show pretty quickly within a day, but some pages where the content is less recognisable (perhaps less popular topic) the ads seem to take longer to show, but show up they do, eventually.

    I have never had a lag in the time that ads take to show. Maybe this is because my site is fairly content rich?

    First time I used ads with my AdSense account, it took about 30 minutes to get "relevant" ads.

    I have a site that has been up for over 12 hours, has over 700 words on the home page yet is still not getting any ads show up. The keywords are motorbike, motorcycle and they are mentioned plenty throughout the text ?? :(

    It also looks at the URL as well. Is the URL text relevant to motorbikes and motorcycles?
