"Ads not found on http://www.seo-blog.org/" -- I'm NOT blind, validator IS :/

    http://www.digitalpoint.com/tools/ad-network/?action=validate_site keeps telling me that "Ads are not found on http://www.seo-blog.org/" (clicked it 10 times, I'm sure it's enough)

    Look at the site, hit 'end' on your keyboard and you will find ads.

    Setup type is: PHP; I'm quite experienced with PHP so I'm 101% sure that it's setup correctly (after all, ads ARE there) -- why doesn't validator see them?

    P.S. I have the exact same problem with another site, but hopefully, if I resolve issue with http://www.seo-blog.org/ same will apply to it.

    SO PLEASE, SOMEONE ASSIST ME.

    I see the ads, so it seems to be working properly.

    Is your site more than 1 page?

    The code is supposed to be on all pages of your site (which is why it is best to install it in the header or footer).

    It looks correct to me. It sounds silly, but you might want to try and hit validate a few more times. I have a friend with a large forum and it took him hitting validate about 15 or more times.

    After investigating it deeply on the server side, I came to the reason why bot doesn't see ads - because of headers with redirection used on site index

    I am not the only one who does normal things like setting up .htaccess's DirectoryIndex or creating RewriteRules in it so I assume it would be ok to update bot to support such redirections and simply follow them, instead of quit immediately.
