Why do they send me unrelated ads?

    I have a silo style site about boating. There is one subdirectory, named boat, with boat in the heading, an article about boating, 5 Amazon books about boating, RSS feed with 5 news stories about boating, and they send me ads about ... computer viruses.

    Computer viruses are not mentioned anywhere on the page ...

    The same silo site has other subdirectories structured exactly the same, all containing relevant Adsense ads about boating that get well clicked :)

    I don't want to post the url for fear of click bombing but does anyone have any idea why Adsense would send me unrelated ads and if there is anything I can do to get more relevant ads - given that it would be hard to make the content any more relevant than it already is :confused:

    Edit: Just checked again and now I have ads about martial arts, plus computer viruses :confused:

    using section targeting and blocking mfa sites will help you to get more related ads to your web site
