Hi there Currently I have a website that runs on Ajax technology and as a result Google is not serving up targetted ads - is there any way to make it so that google does? The site covers a very wide range of topics, so Google's contextual features would really help out. Would something like ticking the "this ad appears in a frame" box work? Cheers, Matt
If you content is loaded client-side, which is what I assume you mean (you can use AJAX for other purposes), then no, you won't get any relevant ads. The problem is that AdSense depends on Google's ability to crawl your site to gather information about relevant topics. If all you're doing is returning a page full of JavaScript then there's nothing to crawl, hence no relevant ads. If you want to use AdSense, you'll have to rethink your content delivery model and include the content directly into the pages. You could use AJAX (well, plain JavaScript actually) to conditionally hide different parts of the content in reaction to different things the user's doing, but that's not a great strategy. Best to place small sections of content on separate pages that the crawler can see.
