    ok, I got this as I'm starting a PPC
    Contextual targeting is ads that are based on the content of the site. This assumes that your visitors are interested in your topic and therefore will be interested in related ads. If your site is on fishing, an ad might sell fishing poles

    Behavioral targeting is more of what a visitor does on your site. If the visitor, for example, tended to visit all the pages on the site about making money, and had a popup blocker, the ad would probably be a text ad about a job opportunity
