How do i get rid of PSA? Help

    I posted on another forum site similar to this one just much smaller and i never got any replies to my thread. But if you notice on www.strathcl.com there is a public service ad that is making me no money and is relavent to nothing.

    I would appreciate in getting rid of this. Thank you very much for your time.

    Obviously a public service ad would mean there is no ad. Is there content there? If there is, then you should get some sort of ad.

    Well, it's going to take a while. You do know that?
    I don't even know if that was the problem. Did you look at the link to see what other things it could be?

    For instance if a person writes a page about anything violent, or cigarettes, or liquor, OR even using a controversial word somewhere in the page can trigger the STOP, or other things that Google owners are not in favor of, you will get only PSAs. Some topics are not set out in the TOS, they just are disapproved of by Google owners, so that is that... If I only see PSAs, I know I hit a wall and I either go to another topic or find and remove the offending words. This works sometimes. I learned thru experience. Hope this helps...

    Hi, it is not in iframe. as i know that google ads are not displayed properly then. It is in navigation.php but all the rest of the pages are normal so i am not sure. Just front page is the worst place ever to have that problem.

    Just keep refreshing the page.. If you keep refreshing the page, eventually the googlebot will come out and view the page because it is wondering why you are getting so much traffic. Once you do that you'll start getting ads.

    I had this problem last night. Had to sit there for about 20 minutes just refreshing the page, and eventually I saw the googlebot visit the site and the next thing I know I had ads.

    Ok, that's what's wrong then. Because it is in navigation.php, it's trying to pull keywords off of your menu links. Because they're so generic, it's not displaying ads, and just the PSA. Hence, move the Google ads to your main content PHP page, and I think the problem will be solved. :)
