Ok to begin with,i work hard on my site,and i realy dont know how to fix it.I chose keywords which are conected with my site like football,football video,football highlights,soccer video,soccer highlights,football scores,football results,watch football and so on..so..on..but adsense keep showing tons of irrelevent ads for months on my site.Yesterday i blocked almost 70 ads urls and they just keep coming..I even use adsense targeting to my post nothing has changed ..and ads like calculators,papers,holidays,diving,taxes,domains,opera tickets,hotels,dating,ceilings..and that kind of crap swamp my site,and i can see maybe 10 % ads relevent to sport,football maybe less ..can any one help me with it..my site is footballtarget.com I forget to add ,maybe will help. For example ads shows 7/10 so for every 1000 viewers ads were showned for 700 of them.
Does anyone know what could be the issue here? I think my friend had a similar problem, I would like to know if theres a work around to this.
Are you sure that the ads you are seeing are purely content-driven and not interest-driven? What I mean is, you may be seeing Google interest based ads targeted to you and not your site in general. To see just the ads targeted to your site, you should opt-out of Google's interest based advertising for yourself. https://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/ If the ads look more targeted after doing that then you should consider disabling interest based ads on your website and see if that helps. That will make the ads more relevant to your site but you may lose clicks from ads based on the previous browsing habits of your visitors. When I loaded the site I saw an ad for FIFA 12 which is a soccer video game, so it seems there's some targeting there. I have interest based ads disabled for me.
I don't have a solution for you, but i will say that happened to me last year with my gaming site. I just decided to move away from adsense altogether. Good luck to you though.
Yes few days ago i tried and disabled Google's interest based advertising.What happens after that...for every 1000 viewers ads where shown on 300 times..i lost even more..i dont know.it seems that it started to show more relative..as i disabled about 90 urls..but still there is some crap ads.. Other thing..maybe you ll know..google bots last 2-3 day use about 8-10 GB of my bandwith and they are still crawling site like 20 of them ..i dont know whats with that as they already crawl and index everything..site isnt so new..any idea ?
