    Help. I checked my sites today and they are all showing highly irrelevant adds, and some ads are not showing at all :confused: You can see an example in my pet birds site in my sig bar. What is this all about? Its on all my sites and I have not received any email from adsense or anything. Has anyone else ever had this happen and what could it mean?

    I already posted about it. It is horrible my CTR has tanked today and the ads are junk. This must be our little welcome to these networks Google is allowing, and if this is a sign of things to come I will finally say good bye after almost 5 years. The filter doesn't do any good because I filtered out the exact ads they are showing.

    Just what every dating site needs is fatburner ads, weight loss ads, pluck my nose hair ads, online courses, absolute junk. Google better wake up quick and put an end to this mess, or fix it, because it will wear thin with publishers already on the brink of saying goodbye.

    Last Monday i got this email from google titled... Enabling multiple ad networks in AdSense to generate higher revenue ....I will only post part of it since i am sure others have posted or linked to it... funny title it should have read Enabling multiple ad networks in AdSense to lower your CTR and show lots of junk ads on your site.

    I have had forex ads poping up on my gaming sites, and womens clothing on my forex sites, possibly a DB error on googles behalf, happens from time to time, but they usually have it fixed in no time.

    EDIT: i checked your bird site, i would be using text ads and not images, most times the pay more and display more related ads, if you go to a website directly you won't see 100% of the time correct / related ads, however if you land on your site from a search engine "keeping pet birds" than more relevant ads will appear.

    Good luck
