Adsense newbie need a bit help

Discussion in 'AdSense' started by Jihoy, May 2, 2009.

    I just linked up adsense with my Google analytics for my free classifieds ad site. And I saw something really weird on one of the ad posting.

    http://www.jihoy.com/post/3892

    1. The page is suppose to be about swine flu prevention, and yet the ads are a big ugly red MLM ad called "Crushing Blow to MLM".

    2. I got 4 clicks on this page for total of $0, yet average click through rate of my site is about 0.51% . This doesn't make sense.

    3. How do I view URL of my adsense ads? That big red ad looks ugly, I want to ban it.

    Any help will be greatly appreciated, thanks!

    You can use adsense competitive ad filter to block any ad publisher. And you can do section targeting to display relevant ads in your site.

    Google might not be having ads related to your niche, an it might be displaying PSAs, that's why you are not getting any revenue from it.

    Thanks for the advice. Another question, how do I see URL of banner ads? I don't want to click on it, is there anyway I can see where that banner goes to?
