Adsense with Addon domains

Discussion in 'AdSense' started by RacerWeek, Jan 16, 2006.

    I've made several sites that use addon domains - that is, the domain points to a sub folder of my main site.

    for example: thisisaurl.com points to /thisisaurl on my main server.

    I'm noticing that I'm only getting PSA ads on the the addon domain. It's been a week and I'm wondering if google doesn't like that these addon domains are sharing an IP address.

    Any ideas?

    I wonder if they know of the existance of the pages in subfolder but do not associate those pages with add on domain? How long have you had that domain name pointing to the subfolder?

    They have been point to the subfolders about a week, but when I've created sites on the root level, adsense seems to show up in a matter of hours.

    Do you still see the public service ads if you go to <nourl>www.yourdomain.com/adonfloder</nourl>?

    Next question do you have a link going to new subdomain? I started moving a site and within 24 hrs medibot was spidering. I had not even put up my robots.txt file to disallow bots while I got site set up.

    yeah, it's strange, i'm wondering if adsense puts a limit on the number of adsense sites coming from the same server IP, since the early ones worked right away

    My experience is this: I created an addon domain with a different topic from the main site.
    Google continued to show ads related to main topic, even when i double checked there were not a single (key)word about it.
    I moved the pages in another domain, this time somewhat related to the topic, and finally the right ads start to show, almost instantaneously.

    All websites are on the same shared IP (poor man ISP, I know)

    Almost all of my sites outside of my main site (web designing site), are under addon domains. Never had a problem with them before. They still get indexed and the google ads still show up fine.

    no, the code works on the subpage, it's just like adsense can't figure out the content on the homepage. I'll wait a little more and see what happens.

    The original poster gives no indication as to quality of site and content.

    Sounfs to me there is no content as if PSAs are running then Googles mediabot is indexing the site.

    PSAs indicate poor quality content, lack of advertiser budget, small amount of advertising pool and other issues.
