    HI,
    I am not regular at adwords since most of my traffic is generated through Organic only.
    However recently I have tried to use the adwords for some of my sites.
    Today while taking report on the performance of the ads, I was amazed to find that my own ad has been published on My own site..
    Can any one let me know how do i prevent it.

    You can switch content network off, then your ads will not appear on any sites except search engines.

    I'm assuming that you use AdSense also then? If so, you can block your ads from displaying on your site by going into the AdSense setup.

    yes, to do this you put your own URL into the "Competitive Ad Filter" in the AdSense Setup tab, preferably without the "www" or any sub domain, eg "mydomain.com"

    Hope this helps.
